How to install and configure Sphinx in Ubuntu 9.10 with MySQL support

Description: “Sphinx is a full-text search engine, distributed under GPL version 2. Commercial license is also available for embedded use. Generally, it’s a standalone search engine, meant to provide fast, size-efficient and relevant fulltext search functions to other applications. Sphinx was specially designed to integrate well with SQL databases and scripting languages. Currently built-in data sources support fetching data either via direct connection to MySQL or PostgreSQL, or using XML pipe mechanism (a pipe to indexer in special XML-based format which Sphinx recognizes). As for the name, Sphinx is an acronym which is officially decoded as SQL Phrase Index. Yes, I know about CMU’s Sphinx project“.

Installation:

* Install the packages needed: apt-get install gcc make libmysqlclient15-dev libmysql++-dev
* Download Sphinx from here.
* Decompress it: tar xvfz sphinx-*.tar.gz
* Enter its directory: cd sphinx-*
* Run configure: ./configure --prefix=/usr/local/sphinx --with-mysql
* Compile Sphinx: make
* Install Sphinx (as root): make install

Configuration:

* Enter Sphinx’s directory: cd /usr/local/sphinx/etc
* Make a copy of its default configuration: cp sphinx.conf.dist sphinx.conf
* Modify it to fit you database schema and preferences (I recommend reading Sphinx’s official documentation and this tutorial by IBM first).
* Create all indexes: /usr/local/sphinx/bin/indexer --all
* Something like this will be shown:

Sphinx 0.9.9-rc2 (r1785)

using config file '/usr/local/sphinx/etc/sphinx.conf'...
indexing index 'software'...
collected 10 docs, 0.0 MB
sorted 0.0 Mhits, 100.0% done
total 10 docs, 649 bytes
total 0.013 sec, 48970 bytes/sec, 754.54 docs/sec

total 5 writes, 0.000 sec, 0.4 kb/call avg, 0.0 msec/call avg

Use:

* You can perform a basic search using: /usr/local/sphinx/bin/search desired_word . It matches all words by default, but you can change this behaviour. Run /usr/local/sphinx/bin/search without arguments to show the available options.
* Example: /usr/local/sphinx/bin/search samba

Sphinx 0.9.9-rc2 (r1785)
Copyright (c) 2001-2009, Andrew Aksyonoff

using config file ‘/usr/local/sphinx/etc/sphinx.conf’…
index ‘software': query ‘samba ‘: returned 1 matches of 1 total in 0.000 sec

displaying matches:
1. document=10, weight=2
id=10
url=http://www.samba.org/
name=Samba
description=Samba is a SMB/CIFS file, print, and login server. It seamlessly integrates Linux/Unix Servers and Desktops into Active Directory environments using the Winbind daemon.
stable_version=3.4.3
stable_date=2009-10-29
download=http://www.samba.org/samba/ftp/stable/samba-3.4.3.tar.gz

words:
1. ‘samba': 1 documents, 2 hits

The use of /usr/local/sphinx/bin/search is just for test and debugging purposes. There are native API ports for PHP, Python, Java, Perl, and Ruby. I will explain the integration between PHP and Sphinx on another post.

    Hi. I see that you don’t update your blog too often. I know that writing articles is boring and time
    consuming. But did you know that there is a
    tool that allows you to create new posts using existing content (from article directories or other blogs from your niche)?
    And it does it very well. The new articles
    are unique and pass the copyscape test. You
    should try miftolo’s tools
