This is a new installation of Version 1.5 running on a Linux server. When entering terms in the search box that I know the wiki contains (for example, blogroll), I get the following message: Showing below 0 results starting with #64,971. I don't know why it is starting at 64,971 and not 1. SPECIAL PAGES:ALL PAGES seems to work fine, but I'm suspicious about whether CATEGORIES and FILE LIST are working appropriately. A check of my MySQL database returns the following: Checking Database myshortp_k12wiki is now being checked. myshortp_k12wiki.w1_archive OK myshortp_k12wiki.w1_categorylinks OK myshortp_k12wiki.w1_hitcounter error : The handler for the table doesn't support check myshortp_k12wiki.w1_image OK myshortp_k12wiki.w1_imagelinks OK myshortp_k12wiki.w1_interwiki OK myshortp_k12wiki.w1_ipblocks OK myshortp_k12wiki.w1_logging OK myshortp_k12wiki.w1_math OK myshortp_k12wiki.w1_objectcache OK myshortp_k12wiki.w1_oldimage OK myshortp_k12wiki.w1_page OK myshortp_k12wiki.w1_pagelinks OK myshortp_k12wiki.w1_querycache OK myshortp_k12wiki.w1_recentchanges OK myshortp_k12wiki.w1_revision OK myshortp_k12wiki.w1_searchindex OK myshortp_k12wiki.w1_site_stats OK myshortp_k12wiki.w1_text OK myshortp_k12wiki.w1_trackbacks OK myshortp_k12wiki.w1_user OK myshortp_k12wiki.w1_user_groups OK myshortp_k12wiki.w1_user_newtalk OK myshortp_k12wiki.w1_validate OK myshortp_k12wiki.w1_watchlist OK
Looks ok to me: http://www.myshortpencil.com/k12wiki/index.php?search=blogroll&fulltext=Search "Showing below 4 results starting with #1." Can you narrow down the conditions under which this happens? (Account settings etc?)
Thanks for your prompt reply. I just checked my site from another computer I have running IE 5.5 and WIN 95, and the search came back correctly and as you reported. I restarted my IE 6.0 WIN 98 Computer and the search for blogroll still comes back as: Showing below 0 results starting with #65,791. Isn't that peculiar?
I note that in the search results page, {For query "blogroll"} is correctly reported on both computers.
I also note that running a search on Wikipedia on my WIN 98, IE 6.0 computer correctly executes the search request. (Searching for blogroll there shows 26 links).
Sorry to keep adding comments. I also note that a search for Dead End Pages using my WIN 98 IE 6.0 computer reports: Showing below up to 0 results starting with #368,821 But my WIN 95 computer correctly reports 4 dead-end pages.
At Wikipedia, on my WIN 98 IE6.0 computer, I see lots of dead-end pages. Could there be a reason why SEARCH and DEAD END work fine at wikipedia but not at my K12WIKI? My SEARCH PREFERENCES at K12WIKI are set at the default values for Hits per page, Lines per hit, and Context per line.
After working on K12WIKI with my WIN 95 IE 5.5 computer for a while and reading articles at Wikipedia, I happened to do a search for "blogroll" as I did in the initial bug report and rather than report 4 pages, it found 0 results starting with #83,771. So, now I've had the same problem on two computers with different operating systems.
More info and a theory: I've noticed that lots of my special pages aren't reporting results correctly, including broken redirects (0 results starting with #61,401), categories (0 results starting with #61,401) and newest pages (0 results starting with #61,401). Create an account, all pages and system messages are working. One problem might be that I'm running php as a CGI module and this may behave differently than at Wikipedia and Wikimedia. Here's my local settings on article paths: ## If using PHP as a CGI module, use the ugly URLs # $wgArticlePath = "$wgScript/$1"; $wgArticlePath = "$wgScript?title=$1";
