I'm somewhat geeked: I have Sphinx running on my test forum! Finally got indexer and searchd to run and load. NO errors from what I can tell--this has to be a first!
I did the changes to vB 3.7 (uploaded search_sphinx.php, sphinxapi.php, added the two plugins), but I can't tell if I'm using Sphinx or not. Is there any way I can tell? Searches were fast to begin with on this smaller forum, so time is not a good benchmark here. Any other way to tell? I did enter a new post with the word "privileges" in it, and I see it did not show up in Sphinx (using search at the command line) after I ran the "indexer --all" command for a second time. I just want to see IF it is working before I test HOW it is working. It seems like it went too easily for it to be working properly... |

It's working. If I kill searchd, I get an error that it can't connect to "localhost". I now have cron running as well, and new posts are indexed within three minutes.
Speed is actually slightly slower for Sphinx on this smaller test forum, but we don't have that many posts. I may bite the bullet and try this on the main forum soon. |

I just upgraded to 0.9.8, but am running some incredibly old search.php code (on 3.6). So far so good. I had to do a major reorg of my sphinx.conf, but I couldn't resist some of the new options (unlink_old is nice because this box has limited diskspace).
I'm curious if anyone has a definitive status report on what is and is not working properly on 3.7. I see orban has updated the first post recently, but I wasn't sure if all of the quirks that are listed were still applicable. We're not ready to upgrade to 3.7 yet, but I'd really like to have "Find all posts/threads by user" hitting Sphinx when we do, those queries are sort of brutal for us. Also, does anyone have a decent guide on "How to search" laying around? Our users seem to have trouble figuring out search operands, searching for phrases, etc. I was hoping someone who uses sphinx might have a FAQ entry done up that explains what you can and can't do with this setup. |
