SID-00797: Search Engine Kino Search add-on stopped working suddenly

Status:	Answered	TWiki version:	4.3.2	Perl version:	5.8.8
Category:	CategoryAddOns	Server OS:	RedHat EL5.4 Linux	Last update:	15 years ago

Have been using KinoSearch add-on successfully for about a month (great add-on!), but suddenly all searches started returning zero results. The index get's rebuilt daily using kinoindex, and updates are done hourly using kinoupdate. Both of these processes show no errors. But suddenly last Monday all searches began returning as "Search results" - "Number of topics: 0"

Any ideas would be greatly appreciated. Without KinoSearch, TWiki is MUCH less useful.

Discussion and Answer

Hi,

This sounds strange - did you try recreating the "index" directory? i suggest first to try that? (ideally {TWIKI_ROOT}/kinosearch/index)

Thanks,
