    • Does 'Search' work?

    Posted by Fedor posts: 4 Russia

    I am sorry to ask so dumb question, but seems that search is not working at all.
    I mean the Search box — it returns a page about some error in database query (I mean search on this site! see, for example:
    http://tikiwiki.org/tiki-searchindex.php?highlight=Features&where=pages&search=go
    ).

    In my own installation of tiki 1.9.3 — I have two variants of Search modules: search_box and search_new — the second one simply finds nothing, and the first one gives again an error in database query...

    Does search works at all for anybody?

    I had a similar problem. I forget what the point of search_new is for. Anyway, use the search_box module. You probably need to clear the db cache to get the search working again.

    Hmm... Search on the tikiwiki.org started to work for me for some reason... Very strange, do not understand anything.

    For me I located the problem.

    lib/searchlib.php is not working at all with postgresql-7.3.4 (It uses MATCH AGAINS — which is not supported in postgres, and then it does some wierd things assuming postgres SQL is case sensitive, while it is not, unless you enclose attributes in double quotes). I partially patched that myself (anybody interested?). Though it is worth looking at later CVS versions, maybe it is fixed there allready.
