Topic on Extension talk:SphinxSearch

I'm running MediaWiki 1.24.1 on CentOS 6.8 with a sphinx version 2.0.8-1.el6.i686 RPM from EPEL and the same version of sphinx-php RPM also from EPEL. Pretty vanilla stuff, I figured.

I've followed the install instructions and the troubleshooting instructions... several times!

SphinxSearch works, sort of. As you type it auto-completes your search with suggestions that match Wiki page titles and if you click on a match the page loads. So far so good.

But when I type something like "ABC" (and I have a couple of pages that start with the letters ABC), I get a "...containing ABC" option. When I choose that option, I get a "Page not found".

Help!!! :)

I forgot to mention the version of the SphinxSearch MediaWiki extension: 0.9.0.

Same Problem here. Any advice would be much appreciated

There have been many fixes recently, and I am not able to replicate this issue. We do not actively support any MW version prior to 1.25 anymore. For MW 1.25 to 1.31 you should try using extension version 0.9.1 (which is in the release 1.31 branch of MW extensions.) Newere release of MW have their own release branch of extension.
