Search doenst work...

[Maxtor]

I have moved my forum to a new dadicated machine,and since then search doesnt work (it stays at loading and nothing happens).

I have also disabled search option since it doesnt work at my forum.

Please notice that before i move dedicated, i was using "Fulltext index" method and now nothing works at new machine.

what do i have to check? tables? files?

I have also updated to 1.1.14 but problem was the same at 1.1.13

You could try getting rid of the search index, and then recreating it.

how can i remove and recreate a fulltext index?

[SlammedDime]

In the admin panel, ticking the option for no search index should remove it, then tick the option for full-text again.  If you have a lot of posts, it could take a while.

curently its set to:

Search index: No index

Then you don't have a full-text index built.  How many messages does your board have?

You should be using sphinx as a search daemon, not SMF's standard search.  You should request to join the big boards group so you can see the information on using that.
