Thinking sphinx doesn't start - “Failed to start searchd daemon”

Question

I try to start thinking sphinx on my server but it doesn\'t want to work.

I do:

$ rake thinking_sphinx:index && rake thinking_sphinx:start
         


        

Answer 1

In my case I checked this file: ../yourdirectory/log/searchd.log and it was written that: /usr/local/var/data/binlog.002: No such file or directory I only do this:

touch /usr/local/var/data/binlog.002

Done, works fine.
