Hi Christophe If it's not working, it's a limitation in Sphinx, not Thinking Sphinx... so I've gone searching on the Sphinx forums, sounds like it *might* work with 0.9.9, but definitely not with 0.9.8. http://sphinxsearch.com/forum/view.html?id=3462 http://sphinxsearch.com/forum/view.html?id=730
So, are you using the latest 0.9.9 release candidate (with the sphinx-0.9.9 branch of TS)? If so, then it's probably worth posting on the Sphinx forum. If not, sounds like upgrading is a good place to start. Cheers -- Pat On 02/10/2009, at 1:20 PM, Christophe Porteneuve wrote: > > Hi all, > > I've very recently got on the TS train, and am loving it.
