Broken out from bug 26372: When typing a namespace prefix (eg 'Project:', 'Help:', 'Talk:') into the search box, the suggestions traditionally return a few items from the beginning of that namespace, alphabetically. On live Wikimedia sites which are running the Lucene search engine, only a single result is returned. (It can be verified this isn't an issue on the UI side by checking the actual opensearch responses -- they really do only return a single page title.) For instance, on en.wikipedia.org right now typing "Talk:" returns the single result "Talk:&&". "Help:" returns "Help:A day in the Life", but no others. More results are expected, especially when the first result is something funky-looking like a series of punctuation. :)

This is affecting all wmf wikis. Pretty annoying at times. Maybe someone can investigate this? I imagine it must be a relatively easy logic bug in the back-end.
[Merging "MediaWiki extensions/Lucene Search" into "Wikimedia/lucene-search2", see bug 46542. You can filter bugmail for: search-component-merge-20130326 ]
I don't get any proposals now, instead An error has occurred while searching: The search backend returned an error: and that's all. Hence bug 47761 needs fixing first before retesting this one.
Verified as an issue in CirrusSearch. Migrating.
