I just installed search config on November 3, the most recent 4.7 version available that day. I'm running Drupal 4.7.4.

I'm getting the following error message everytime I either enter a search or leave the search page:

"Validation error, please try again. If this error persists, please contact the site administrator."

I get this error regardless of wheither or not I just go to the search page and then click another link (without any search terms entered on the form), or I submit a search (both with and without terms entered on the form).

Any guesses as to what's going on? I really hope I can get this module working.

Cheers,
Sean

Oh man. I forgot about the whole form validation thing in 4.7.4. I'll make the fix as soon as possible.

Thanks for the report.

I tried reproducing this with a vanilla install of 4.7.4 but couldn't. Could you give me some more details about your set up and especially how you are using search config, i.e., what options are selected. I'll look more from my end to see if I can get any further with it. Thanks.

First, I'm getting this error in both FF and IE6 - but only when I'm logged in, regardless of access controls. Anonymous users don't get error.

I have all search config permissions granted to all user levels, including anonymous users.

Advanced Search settings:

1) Advanced Search form is NOT disabled
2) Interestingly, I have not selected any of the keyword check boxes - as doing so actually removes them from the advance search form (the wording here seems wrong).
3) I've disabled category search
4) I do have certain node types disabled on the search form.

Does that help? Not all of my site is indexed at the moment - can't see how that would affect this, however. Simple CJK Handling is checked (that's just the default, so I didn't mess with it.)

Thanks!!
Sean

Sorry Canen,

It looks like this wasn't caused by Search Config. I upgraded to 4.7.4 about the same time I installed this module. I guess I missed the error on 4.7.4 just prior to installing search config.

It was a problem with my search box theming. I followed this post and fixed the error: http://drupal.org/node/90808.

Yours is a great module. I love the added flexibility.

Cheers,
sean
