Hi Brandon, transmitting objects from Ferret's API across the DRb connection is always a bit tricky. If these don't serialize correctly, DRb only transmits a stub and then tries to talk back to the original object via a DRb connection from the server to your web server process, which results in the message you see.
Sort and SortFields should work, but I'm not sure if I introducted the one or the other after the 0.4.1 release. Imho, Sort objects can simply be replaced by an array holding the SortFields. For the RangeQueries and other query objects that fail the way you describe, please try using FQL instead to see if this fixes the problem. cheers, Jens On Fri, Sep 07, 2007 at 08:18:52PM +0200, Brandon Kelly wrote: > I'm trying to use the Ferret DRB server to avoid concurrency issues when > using multiple mongrels.
