Sphinx Search Engine

Could you tell me what are the requirements to successfully implement the sphinx search plug-in 0.4 in the hosting webserver.

Our wordpress domains all hosted by justhost.com. they are saying that the packages has to be changed for the sphinx plug-in to be installed in the webserver.

Do you have any successful mantra to do it in the webserver?

If you want to install sphinx in specified folder you should set prefix parameter:
sudo ./configure –prefix=/path/to/sphinx

Did you know about the setting up procedures in the webserver where the website will benefit immensely?

Could any one have the working example of Free open-source wordpress sphinx-search 0.4 plug-in installed perfectly in the wordpress domain.

Hi,

Why don’t you try to use reindex.php like this?

nothing to index…

Anyway if you want to use ‘indexer’ directly the correct syntax is ‘indexer –all’. And you might want to specify path to correct config (it might be …/wp-content/plugins/wordpress-sphinx-plugin/rep), use ‘-c’ for this.

Thank you for your guidance we have configured in local-host, where as we are trying to implement in our website but everything is indexed properly.the problem is there are no search results.

I just had a warning report while indexing , watch this link,
We are eagerly waiting for your reply!

Please ensure searchd is running.
“WARNING: no process found by PID 31252.” means it’s not running.

we are actually using a shared system server(justhost.com) and not a dedicated one is that a problem..?

If they don’t allow you to run searchd – yes. Did you try to start the daemon on the same page where you started the indexing?

man!
you are god! it works …….
thanks for your great support,people like you should always be active on our open source community..
