How to properly install SphinxSearch on Rails?

Question

Sphinx

Although it’s probably boring to read the question, but help if it’s not difficult, since for the third day I can’t solve a seemingly simple question!
I can't connect sphinx to a rails project in any way.
Installed sphinxsearch myself.
Installed gem thinking-sphinxto work with him.
In the model, the minimum prescribed

define_index
 indexes :name
end

I do rake ts:index - nothing happens.
Here is what is in sphinx.conf:

source src1
{
  # data source type. mandatory, no default value
  # known types are mysql, pgsql, mssql, xmlpipe, xmlpipe2, odbc
  type			= mysql

  #####################################################################
  ## SQL settings (for 'mysql' and 'pgsql' types)
  #####################################################################

  # some straightforward parameters for SQL source types
  sql_host		= localhost
  sql_user		= root
  sql_pass		= пароль БД
  sql_db	        = Название таблицы, который в проекте
  sql_port		= 3306	# optional, default is 3306

Why doesn't rake ts:index work? What is the problem?
