Ferret_server.out - Segmentation Fault - index.rb:384

/usr/local/lib/ruby/gems/1.8/gems/ferret-0.11.4/lib/ferret/index.rb:384:
[BUG] Segmentation fault
ruby 1.8.6 (2007-03-13) [x86_64-linux]

Has anyone witnessed that with:

ruby 1.8.6
acts_as_ferret DRB server running: 0.4.1
Ferret 0.11.4

I notice I’ll run the DRB server, uptime will be a week or so, then it
will crash and leave that error in the ferret_server.out file.

Because the application cannot run properly without the DRB server up,
it does not gracefully fail over to the local version of the indexes on
the application machines. So I get the nasty “application error” for all
our users, until I can restart the drb server =).

Anyone seen this issue, know what it’s from? Is there a fix for it?

thanks.
