Hi! First: Thanks for great work for making Sphinx easy to use!
I wanted to deploy my (Rails 3.0.3) project to production with Capistrano. I found these: http://freelancing-god.github.com/ts/en/deployment.html. Nice. Everything went fine except that I did not notice these. pid_file: /path/to/app/***shared***/tmp/searchd.pid searchd_file_path: /path/to/app/***shared***/db/sphinx So i put there tmp/searchd.pid and db/sphinx. Upon deployment I got this error: "File exists - db/sphinx" This occured when running thinking_sphinx.start in the after_update_code task. After short amount of debugging I found and fixed the problem (wrong path). I guess this is something that happens pretty often. One way to avoid it would be to really make sure that symlink_sphinx_indexes task makes it's job. Currently it's just ran and outcome is not inspected. Also, to make things more confusing if I logged in with ssh and ran rake thinking_sphinx:start RAILS_ENV=production everything went fine. Weird. Can I submit a patch to make the symlink_sphinx_indexes work better? The patch would make the task see that such link is possible to create and that it was successfully created. -- You received this message because you are subscribed to the Google Groups "Thinking Sphinx" group.
