Ferret file not found error on item delete

Hi:

I’m getting a ferret error when I try to delete any item that has been
previously indexed. I just installed ferret, so the indexes aren’t big
or anything. What I’m trying to do is to just delete an item on a table
that has been index. Here’s the error I’m getting:

Processing GoalsController#destroy (for 68.83.170.192 at 2007-05-22

but it doesn’t exist:

As I really don’t know ferret and acts_as_ferret well, any help you
could give would be greatly appreciated!

Thanks!
