> Do you use the compiled version of Ferret on both laptop and server ? I beleive they are both compiled. My server is gentoo linux. To be sure I just did "gem install ferret" to see and it does indeed appear to be compilinmg on both my macbook and the server. Nothing Changed. I also tried changing my locale in enviornemnt.rb: ENV['LANG'] = 'en_US.utf8' ENV['LC_TIME'] = 'C' I also dumped by database and reimported after converting from latin one to utf8 as described here http://climbtothestars.org/archives/2004/07/18/converting-mysql-database-contents-to-utf-8/ and here http://textsnippets.com/posts/show/84. still didn't change anything.

I think they are pretty basic most are simple, except one line: acts_as_ferret(:fields => ['id','first_name','last_name', 'email', 'notes'], :occur_default => Ferret::Search::BooleanClause::Occur::SHOULD) I decided to comment out all the acts_as_ferret lines and add them back 1 at a time. At first i thought i had found the problem this way, but i was mistaken. Whenever the feret attempts to interact with the index, it segfaults /config/../vendor/plugins/acts_as_ferret/lib/acts_as_ferret.rb:243: [BUG] Segmentation fault I have noticed that all of my index dirs are empty. I mean the directory is there, i.e. index/development/boat, but they are all empty. Is there a way that i could try to manually build the index? Maybe that would help?
