Tech: (Mudcat) Search trouble? (FIXED!)

Subject: Tech: lyrics search error
From: Barb'ry

I keep getting the following message when I search for anything - is there a fault with my computer or has the system got a glitch? Any advice appreciated

Error:

Collection failed to open: dt2007

The error occurred while processing an element with a general identifier of (CFSEARCH), occupying document position (87:1) to (87:91) in the template file C:\!WEBSERVER\MUDCAT\HTDOCS\@NEWSSRESULTS.CFM.

Apologies, I failed to spot this thread before starting my own...

We've had problems with the search for a couple of weeks or more. The best we can offer right now is our "Google Custom Search" of Mudcat. You'll find it at the bottom of the search box on most Mudcat pages. It follows the same rules as a normal Google search - you'll have best results by searching for a distinctive phrase, and enclosing the phrase in quotation marks.

Refresh.
In another thread, Max said he fixed the search problem, but then Mudcat got really slow - so I'm guessing he shut the search down until he can find a solution.
I don't know when he sneaked in the addition of the Mudcat-only Google Custom Search, but it's a very nice feature. You can also use the Filter for searching for threads by name, and the Old Advanced Forum Search in the QuickLinks dropdown menu both the Google search and the QuickLinks menu are located on most Mudcat pages.

Search is back in action and re-indexed and up to date as of last night. It has that fresh search smell. Enjoy.

It doesn't seem to be working for me this morning. Anyone else?

Now I just cannot imagine Why ... you ... a "moderator"... Could have a problem?

I just now placed in the basic Lyrics & Knowledge Search box [london bridge] and it returned:

10 DT songs
over 125 Forum results.
