How to enable text search in mongo?

Question

I tried so many things..

# in replica set configuration, specify the name of the replica set
# replSet = setname
setParameter=textSearchEnabled=true

This is the part of config file. Still after setting this the text search is not enabled.

Am using pymongo for text searching This is my code

db.command("text", 'tracks' ,search=request.POST['content_search'], limit = 12)['results']]

My mongo version is 2.4.10. Please guide me.

This is the traceback

Adding this line to config file should work:

setParameter=textSearchEnabled=true

How do you start mongdb?

Edit: I recommend you to check that:

• You have mongodb started with this config. You could check it by calling db.runCommand("getCmdLineOpts") in MongoDb shell
• via MongoDb Shell db.runCommand({getParameter:1, textSearchEnabled: 1}) returns textSearchEnabled:true
