Hi Pat,
Thanks for your response!
The search doesn't work at all; here's an example:
results = ThinkingSphinx::Search.search 'donkey', :conditions =>
{:language_id => 1}, :classes => [WebResource, Book]
output:
matches = [[], {:attribute_names=>[], :error=>"index
book_core,district_core,group_core,klass_core,message_core,posting_core,school_core,web_resource_core:
query error: no field 'language_id' found in
schema", :status=>1, :fields=>[], :matches=>[], :attributes=>
{}, :words=>{}}]
On WebResource and Book I have the following:
define_index do
# fields
indexes name, :sortable => true
# attribute
has metadata.language_id
end
where metadata is an object associated with the Material. None of the
other classes that I've indexed have a language_id attribute. The rake
task for indexing works fine; it's only searching for a selection of
classes that fails.
Cheers,
Graham
