Hi, I'm using Ultrasphinx for a fulltext search in a rails app. I encountered a very strange behavior. When I search my User model and search for q = "user" I get all the users as a result, even though some of them havent got the term "user" in any field. What is going wrong here? Heres my setup: # models/user.rb class User < ActiveR...
The documentation states for sphinx-0.9.9-rc2: The data to be indexed can generally come from very different sources: SQL databases, plain text files, HTML files, mailboxes, and so on.

Hi, I'm using Ultrasphinx for fulltext search, combined with aspell to provide the user with corrections. When I use the german dictionary and enter any Umlaut (öäü) Ultrasphinx::Spell.correct(@search.query) always returns a correction, even when the word is spelled correctly.

I use Ultrasphinx gem plugin as a wrapper for accessing Sphinx search daemon. My model declaration: class Foo < ActiveRecord::Base is_indexed :fields => ['content', 'private_notes', 'user_id'] Client code: filters = {} if type == "private" # search only in `content` column filters['user_id'] = current_user.id else # se...
Hey, I'm using Ultrasphinx for searching on a Rails App. Everything seems to be working, the only thing is that the search results are not matching the search query in any way. I really don't understand this. I rebuilt my indexes and config files several times and nothing seems to work. When I perform a search for "test" I get results ...
In my web app I need to perform 3 types of searching on items table with the following conditions: items.is_public = 1 (use title field for indexing) - a lot of results can be retrieved(cardinality is much higher than in other cases) items.category_id = {X} (use title + private_notes fields for indexing) - usually less than 100 results...
