Rails configuration on Heroku via thinking_sphinx.yml

I have a thinking_sphinx.yml file that looks like this:

development:
  max_matches: 10000
  charset_table: "0..9, a..z, _, A..Z->a..z, etc."
test:
  max_matches: 10000
  charset_table: "0..9, a..z, _, A..Z->a..z, etc."
production:
  max_matches: 10000
  charset_table: "0..9, a..z, _, A..Z->a..z, etc."

I tried running heroku run bundle exec flying-sphinx configure followed by heroku run rake fs:rebuild but the charset_table changes I'm trying to make don't seem to be applying on heroku.

Locally these charset_table changes work (I'm using your thinking-sphinx gem) but on Heroku I can't tell if the configuration is being applied. Do I need to do anything else to set configuration on Heroku?

Is there a way to view the configuration file that flying-sphinx is using?

Thanks!

   Hi Dylan

   I’m afraid there’s no way currently to view the stored configuration - but if you can let me know the app name I’ll check the file to ensure the charset_table values are what’s expected.

   One thing that might be related is the version of Sphinx you’re using - what do you have locally? And are you also setting a version in the thinking_sphinx.yml file as well for the production environment?

   Cheers,

   The app name is printedmatter-linkedbyair

   I'm using Sphinx 2.2.11. I did not specify the version in the thinking_sphinx.yml.

   I see in your documentation for Ruby that you should specify

   production:
     version: '2.0.6'
   

   I guess I'll try the latest version, 2.2.3 and let you know how that goes.

   What version of sphinx does flying-sphinx use by default?

   Thanks for your help.

   Hi Dylan,

   Just checked on the relevant server, and there’s certainly an extensive charset_table setting persisting in your configuration, so I’m guessing that’s working correctly. The default Sphinx version is 2.1.4, but do give 2.2.3 a spin and see how that goes. I should also look into getting something more recent onto all the servers as well - I’ll see if I can wrangle that over the coming weeks.

   That said, if 2.2.3 doesn’t help, do let me know!

   Cheers,

   Hi Pat, just wanted to follow up and let you know that specifying version 2.2.3 did fix the problem.

   Thanks for your quick support.
