Hi, Alain,<br><br>since I've originally posted this HowTo to the RoR-wiki but haven't got the time right now even for the small contribution of helping to keep this site up to date I'm not quite sure if it is about time to delete the sample project. There has been happened so much in ferret as well as on rails that it's no wonder that something isn't working any longer. My advice right now is: Don't be disappointed or annoyed but have a look at the ferret wiki
<a href="http://ferret.davebalmain.com">http://ferret.davebalmain.com</a> and look at the integration efforts under acts_as_ferret. There even is a svn-tree for integrating ferret with rails. You should find the location of this as well on the ferret wiki and in the archives of ferret-talk on
<a href="http://www.ruby-forum.com">http://www.ruby-forum.com</a>. And maybe as you are going on you'll have the time to update the rails wiki as well. Sorry for the unconvenience, but I've got exams in a few month and am learning all the time. All things IT aren't really happening for me right now...
