I found out that the problem was an indexed ZClass with no properties. Somehow, it was breaking the search interface. Deleting the "empty" ZClass put the search interface / Catalog back in working condition. Gary Perez wrote:
Hi, all.
First, the versions: Linux, Zope 2.3.0, python 1.5.2
A while back, I set up a couple of Catalog-aware ZClasses that auto-update to a Catalog in Zope's root folder. In that same folder, I added the standard "Z Search Interface". Somemtime within the last couple of months, the search interface stopped working; searching on any of the indexed properties of either ZClass returns no results whatsoever.
Here are the things I checked in various combinations, multiple times: - Create new ZClass(es): they still auto-update in the Catalog, search fails - Update the Catalog: looks good, search fails - Verify the Indexes of the Catalog, redo "Find Objects": works fine, search fails - Trash original "Search_Form" and "Search_Report" DTML Methods, add new from management interface: use Zope defaults, search fails
During the last month or so, I removed one property from one of the ZClasses, and added a different one... neither of which were ever (nor will ever be) indexed by the Catalog or searched for via the interface.
Has anyone run into a similar problem (and, hopefully found a solution)?
Thanks in advance for your zen & guidance. -Gary
