Distributed Index can not be directly indexed

This is an email just to highlight something that isn't actually an error, but trips a lot of people up (myself included). When you run an index on your data, you may get the following error message: ...A distributed index is made up of other indexes. It doesn't need to be indexed, but Sphinx tries to anyway, and then complains when it can't.... more » By Pat Allan  - Jun 21 2008 - 2 new of 2 messages

	Defining index when more than 1 accessor involved - need help.
	Hi, guys, I need some help defining index when more than 1 accessor involved. I have looked up the docs ([link] thinking-sphinx) to no success :( Consider this scenario. Search index to be built on a 'parts' object. Each 'parts' object belongs to a 'fit' object.

Iterating through *all* search results (rather than being limited by :per_page)

I did a little search and can't find a solution for this. The best I found was 'paginated_each', but it seems to work at class level (WillPaginate), so it doesn't work with ThinkingSphinx::Search'es. Other plausible solution is overriding the default :per_page value, but this doesn't look very clean to me. Does anybody know a better... more » By Murilo Soares Pereira  - Jan 5 - 3 new of 3 messages

	Exact name match boost
	Hi Pat and other sphinx experts: We're indexing businesses by name and category (and some other fields). We want to ensure that something that matches *exactly* in name or category will be boosted above something that is a partial match or match across fields (ie, if I search for "Burger Bar" in Las... more » By Steve H  - Jan 4 - 4 new of 4 messages

	Errno::EACCES (Permission denied searchd.production.pid)
	Hi guys, I've had Sphinx and Thinking Sphinx on my production site for a few days now and was just alerted to some issues when deleting records. I think this is probably a simple permissions issue as indicated below but I can't seem to find much information on what should be set.

NoMethodErrors

Hi all, I'm using TS with Radiant, which causes me some trouble currently. Actually I'm not sure if this is originally a problem of TS, or if it's the radiant extension causing the error, but let me explain: I've upgraded the TS gem to 1.3.14, and my application started to spit out errors every now and then. Errors occur when I try to edit a page... more » By Christian Aust  - Jan 1 - 13 new of 13 messages
