I just installed Sphinx (distro: archlinux) downloading the source. Then I installed "Thinking Sphinx" plugin for Rails.
I followed the official page setup and this Screencast from Ryan Bates, but when I try to index the models it gives me this error:
$ rake thinking_sphinx:index
(in /home/benoror/Dropbox/Proyectos/cotizahoy)
Sphinx cannot be found on your system. You may need to configure the following
settings in your config/sphinx.yml file:
* bin_path
* searchd_binary_name
* indexer_binary_name
For more information, read the documentation:
http://freelancing-god.github.com/ts/en/advanced_config.html
Generating Configuration to /home/benoror/Dropbox/Proyectos/cotizahoy/config/development.sphinx.conf
sh: indexer: command not found
I tried starting the daemon manually (/usr/bin/sphinx-searchd), changing the config/sphinx.yml file:
devlopment:
searchd_binary_name: sphinx-searchd
indexer_binary_name: sphinx-indexer
But it shows the same error, any ideas ?
you need to configure in your yaml file bin_path: /usr/bin/sphinx-searchd
