title: sphinx field block operator error
body: <p>I am creating a very complex <code>Sphinx .cnf</code> file on a very large <code>MySql</code> Table and in order to efficiently test it I have a test config I use on a smaller table. Once I get the behavior I expect/want I copy the new config content over to the working config. However the last time I did this and rotated the on site query gave me <code>query: “query error: invalid character '|' in field block operator”</code> even though the rotation was successful. I get this is somewhat of a vague question but are there any suggestions as to what to look for? My config is very large and complex and a line by line isn't practical. All I know is that:</p>
  
  <ul>
  <li>When I revert back to the older working config the site query works</li>
  <li>When I run the query on the test site with the test sphinx config it works</li>
  <li>When I replace the working config with the working test config I (all of a sudden) get that error.</li>
  </ul>
