1、安裝Python支持（以下針對CentOS系統，其他Linux系統請使用相應的方法安裝）
yum install -y python Python-devel
2、編譯安裝LibMMSeg（LibMMSeg是為Sphinx全文搜索引擎設計的中文分詞軟件包，其在GPL協議下發行的中文分詞法，采用Chih-Hao Tsai的MMSEG算法。LibMMSeg在本文中用來生成中文分詞詞庫。）
以下壓縮包“sphinx-0.9.8-rc2-chinese.zip”中包含mmseg-0.7.3.tar.gz、sphinx-0.9.8-rc2.tar.gz以及中文分詞補丁。
點擊這裡下載文件
unzip sphinx-0.9.8-rc2-chinese.zip
tar zxvf mmseg-0.7.3.tar.gz
cd mmseg-0.7.3/
./configure
make
make install
cd ../
3、編譯安裝MySQL 5.1.26-rc、Sphinx、SphinxSE存儲引擎

tar zxvf MySQL-5.1.26-rc.tar.gz
tar zxvf sphinx-0.9.8-rc2.tar.gz
cd sphinx-0.9.8-rc2/
patch -p1 < ../sphinx-0.98rc2.zhcn-support.patch
