Hi, Index queries with special characters (e.g. German Umlauts but also other European ones) make the Ruby process run for quite a long time and crash finally.
I'm using Rails on Windows XP with Ferret 0.11.4_mswin_32. I could isolate the problem in the following simple controller action (so there's no web browser form field involved): def test index = Ferret::I.new index << "Portimão" p index.search "Portimão" end The statement index.search "Portimão" causes the crash. There is no entry in ferret_index.log or any other feedback. My renvironment contains the following: ENV['LANG'] = '[EMAIL PROTECTED]' ENV['LC_TIME'] = 'C' require 'acts_as_ferret' What am I doing wrong? Thanks for your help, Starburger -- Posted via http://www.ruby-forum.com/. _______________________________________________ Ferret-talk mailing list [email protected] http://rubyforge.org/mailman/listinfo/ferret-talk
