Topic on Extension talk:SphinxSearch

After migraging to MediaWiki 1.19.0 SphinxSearch 0.85 does not work on the Spechial:Search page anymore (no results). The sidebar Search works.

After logging the searchd with --console, you found a message "query error: no such filter attribute 'page_is_redirect'" in the console. I searched this text and found it in 'SphinxMWSearch.php'. I change the line

$cl->SetFilter( 'page_is_redirect', array( 0 ) );

to

// $cl->SetFilter( 'page_is_redirect', array( 0 ) );

and everything works (for me).

I also change the method 'userHighlightPrefs' to

	public static function userHighlightPrefs() {return array( 2, 75 ); }

because the the definition changed (and I got warning when I activated "$wgShowExceptionDetails" in LocalSettings.php).

I hope this helps others fixing the same problems.

Perhaps page_is_redirect is missing in the sphinx.conf? It did not use to be there by default, but in more recent versions you should see it in at least three places in your sphinx.conf, in both sql_query settings, and in one sql_attr_uint setting. After you change the config file, you need to reindex the wiki.

Hello Svemir,

thanx, that was the solution.

During our tests with MW 1.19 / SphinxSearch 0.8.5 we haven't seen any problems and therefore are able to run SphinxSearch 0.8.5 without any changes on MW 1.19.
