It seems I figured out the what happened,

I specified the -q option in the sphinx.conf file but now i get following error

root@archive [/home/archives/public_html/wp-content/uploads/sphinx/bin]# ./searchd

I generrated new config file through the configuration wizard and skip the installation step,finish the configuration wizard but still same result. My sphinx.conf is as follows:

#!/usr/bin/php
<?php
require_once(‘/home/archives/public_html/wp-config.php’);
ini_set(‘short_open_tag’, 0);
?>

Does /home/archives/public_html/wp-content/uploads/sphinx/bin/searchd
exist?

Yes it exists when i ran other files of this folder like “search” it executes normally but searchd didn’t.

The Plugin version is 2.1

Try to run this command with superuser privileges:

I ran the command with root , having superuser privileges

Did you try to run ‘Configuration Wizard’ to install Sphinx?

Yes i try it through Configuration Wizard

I tried to use sphinx search for my website but i am unable to run sphinx search server through wordpress it gives me following error:

“Can not start searchd, try to start it manually.
Command: /home/archives/public_html/wp-content/uploads/sphinx/bin/searchd –config /home/archives/public_html/wp-content/uploads/sphinx/sphinx.conf”

and when i tried to run it manually on my Centos machine it said command not found.
