What contributed modules are installed? What types of content are you using? What theme?

Edit:

In my case the solution was to simply enable "search content" for the custom "admin" role. Even though this permission was already assigned to the core "authenticated user" role. If I recall correctly this wasn't an issue some time ago. Could this be a bug, that this permission is not given automatically to users assigned to a custom role?

Thanks,

Kees

Users need both "search content" and "access content" permission to be able to search content. I suspect that was the problem, and hopefully the original person figured it out by now, as it is nearly two years later...
