Hello,

When I search, no matter what I enter, I never get any results. I can enter, verbatim, the titles of nodes, text in those nodes, words that appear on various pages 100s of times, and nothing ever comes up except search tips. Any ideas why?

Has cron.php been run? That is when pages are indexed.

To run the cron script, enter the base URL of your drupal site and the cron.php file. For example, if my drupal installation is at

http://www.example.com/drupal/

Then to run the cron.php file I would simple go to

http://www.example.com/drupal/cron.php

You'll see a blank screen, but the process will index your site. Then go to your drupal homepage and enter a search. It should work.

Best,
