Acts_as_ferret - :find_by_contents returns no results

Ruby Apps Ferret
1

I’ve just installed the gem and plugin, and updated my model
accordingly. However, MyModel.find_by_contents always returns no
results, even though I know it should!

MyModel.find_by_contents “blah”
=> #<ActsAsFerret::SearchResults:0x6699b4 @results=[], @per_page=0,
@current_page=nil, @total_hits=0, @total_pages=0>

I’m also getting the same (non)results with another rails app, with
another database table.

What am I doing wrong?

I’m having the exact same issue.

default field list: [:band_name]
Query: A Band’s Name
total hits: 0, results delivered: 0

Every name I try that is in the Table returns 0 results.
