From: Date: June 28 2007 12:49am Subject: Fulltext Search Problem List-Archive: http://lists.mysql.com/internals/34782 Message-Id: MIME-Version: 1.0 Content-Type: text/plain; charset="windows-1250" Content-Transfer-Encoding: 7bit Servus Sergei, I whittled the database and table content down to this short script: ----------------------------------------------------------------------- DROP TABLE IF EXISTS `movies`; CREATE TABLE `movies` ( `movie_id` int(11) NOT NULL AUTO_INCREMENT, `title` varchar(200) NOT NULL, PRIMARY KEY (`movie_id`), FULLTEXT KEY `title` (`title`) ) ENGINE=3DMyISAM AUTO_INCREMENT=3D154 DEFAULT CHARSET=3Dutf8; INSERT INTO `movies` VALUES (111,'Offside'),(142,'City Of God'); select count(movie_id) as cnt from movies where match (movies.title) = against ('+city of*' in boolean mode); ----------------------------------------------------------------------- This does never return, and the best thing I have figured out to do is kill-9 mysql. This happens on a Red Hat system (I can get you more info if you require it). Server appears to be 5.1.16-beta. I also tried the exact same thing on a windows system, and the query = returns just fine. Let me know if you need more info.
