Hello
today i tried to install the search-files module. i'm using drupal 5.19 and the Search Files 5.x- 1.2 Module. When i moved the search-files folder to my modules folder and then went to the modules-page in my drupal website i got the following error message even before i've activated the search files module:
"warning: Error parsing modules/search_files/search_files.info on line 3 in /home/httpd/vhosts/domainexample.ch/httpdocs/mynewsite/includes/module.inc on line 195.
what is the problem of search files? what do i have to fix to get this module working propperly?
thanks for any replies!

I've received the same problem. I changed line 3 from
description = 'Adds ability to search files on the server located in given directory(s)'to
description = 'Adds ability to search files on the server located in given directory/ies'and the warning goes away - it looks like you can't use () in quoted strings in the info file...

Actually, I've subsequently found that the 1.2 version isn't working at all (white screen issue as per http://drupal.org/node/358144), so I've backgraded to 1.1-beta1 - still trying to decide if it'll work at all for indexing attached files.
