Installation Assistance

I've been installing Sphinx as per the installation instructions here: http://www.vbulletin.com/forum/showt...-configuration

All goes well until step 13:
13. Run the main.sh cron using:

/usr/local/sphinx/cron-multisite/main.sh --config /usr/local/sphinx/sites/mysite1.com/etc/vbulletin-sphinx-mysite1.php

Where I get the following error

[root@www cur]# which php
/usr/bin/php
[root@www cur]# php -v

This error repeats itself many times.

Here's my edit to the config file

[root@www cur]# head -20 /usr/local/sphinx/sites/xxxxxx.org/etc/vbulletin-sphinx.php
#!/usr/bin/php
<?php

/*
Set $myforumroot to the absolute path to your forum directory.
Example:

*/

$myforumroot = '/var/www/vhosts/xxxxxx.org/httpdocs/forums';

/*########## DO NOT TOUCH ANYTHING BELOW THIS LINE ##########*/

error_reporting(0);
ob_start();
chdir($myforumroot);
require_once('./global.php');

//print_r($vbulletin->config[MasterServer]);

Help appreciated. Thanks

I think this is related to the version of Sphinx you are running. It was developed with Sphinx 0.9.8 and you have Sphinx 0.9.9.

Really? Sphinx 0.9.9 wouldn't be backward compatible???!

[PitchouneN64ngc]

Some users have tested with Sphinx 0.9.9 and it failed.

[kerplunknet]

Is this really true? Unbelievable.

I couldn't get it to run on Sphinx 0.9.9 so I gave up on it.
