Showing columns in result
Published (2009-11-26 20:11:00)
You are aware sphinx is a 'index', not a datastore. http://sphinxsearch.com/faq.html#row-storage To get original data you need to look it up in your own database.

Hi Zam, First, ensure that the directory for searchd.pid exists (and is writeable): #cd /home/adam/sphinx/var/log/ #ls -al searchd.pid If it is there, stop sphinx and see if it is still there (should be gone). If it is still there, delete it. If the directory doesn't exist, then mkdir var and possibly log. Then reindex catalogue using rotate: #/scripts/indexer catalogue --rotate Then restart sphinx: (wherever searchd is)...

Please supply an example query. And maybe your 'source's, just the sql_query and attributes would probably be enough. At the moment I dont beleive its clear what you are trying to do.
