Hello,
I'm maybe running into a similiar problem which Dean had. (also
running TS on windows)
I used to have the same warning message about sphinx not being
located, but having bin_path set wasn't enough I had also to place
sphinx version.
So my sphinx.yml looks like this:
development:
port: 9312
bin_path: 'C:/Development/Sphinx/bin'
version: 0.9.9
Now my problem is,
When I run ts:index for example, I get only as output that a conf file
was generated.
No other output is shown and I'm running out of ideas to solve this
issue. I've deployed an application that uses TS, and always developed
on Mac. Didn't know Window would be such a pain :S
Regards
