Search problem?

Hey Bill!

Great job getting the new server up and running!

Having some issues with the Search function though - it seems to crash/hang with certain strings. Perhaps a setting needs to be tweaked?

Thanks,
C.

What words are you searching for?

If they are very common words like oil, car, engine, etc, the search engine can get overloaded with the number of hits. Once these words become too common I can block them so they don't cause errors.

Ok, I just put the following words in the catagory of "too common" so that they are ignored in searches. This should prevent search errors at least for now.

car good engine back time problem work make find put cars

The words "car" and "cars" appear 360,000 times in the Shop Forum. That's like 1 out of every 4 posts! This is WAY too frequent for the search engine to return meaningful information.

Seems fine now Bill! I was using 'engine' and I think that was crashing it.

Thanks,
C.
