Hi,

That is a very interesting thread. I am currently deploying a rails app 
with aaf. I have many troubles and basically I cannot have it working. I 
am surprised because everything was so simple in development.

I must admit that I understand nothing to the DRB server. (I am learning 
this new thing.)
My app is on a shared host. I do not even understand if the drb server 
can run on it...

When I run : script/ferret_server -e production start
I get : starting ferret server...
That is all
But when I stop it (script/ferret_server -e production start) I get :
ferret_server doesn't appear to be running
I guess it is not normal (can someone confirm please ?)...

Then when I do script/console production
Article.rebuild_index
I get the first time :
DRb::DRbConnError: druby://ferret.myhost.com:9010 - #<SocketError: 
getaddrinfo: Name or service not known>
And if I do it a second time :
LoadError: Expected article.rb to define Article

Whatever bad I am, this is just an awful behavior for a software, sorry 
to say that because I loved aaf in dev.

(I tried a chmod -R 777 index without success)
For info I am deploying with Capistrano, in case it rings a bell to 
someone.

My options :
more help from my host, I am currently discussing with them
help from you about the aaf configuration
  but even if I make it work, from what I have read here I should not 
build my app with it...
try another search engine : sphinx
  but I read from brfsa "FERRET is in my second choice only because 
shared hosts won't support sphinx...." Can I have any precision on that 
? Or alternatively for those of you on a shared host how do you manage 
your search ?

Finally, I am listening to your suggestions about :
the web host : which ones allow a search engine such as 
ferret/sphinx/other ?
how to configure aaf ?
Which plugins for the engine ? (Do not worry I will read again the whole 
thread!)

Thx !
H
