Tim: I'm following up to this post of yours of 13-Apr-2008, because
I'm having a similar problem: searches in Koha 3 catalog (using the
latest developer snapshot available today - the Koha database version
is 3.00.00.086) are working in the "Intranet", but return NO results
in the "OPAC".

I'm using UNIMARC. I have disabled Zebra, by setting the "NoZebra"
System Preference to ON, but the results are the same.

I'm running Koha in a Xen virtual machine running Linux (openSUSE
10.3), Apache 2.2.4 and MySQL 5.0.45

For instance, a search for the word "market" (without the quotes) in
the "Intranet" return 22 results but the same search in the OPAC home
page (leaving the default dropdown option - "Library Catalog" -
selected) return NO results:

__________

No Result found !

No results match your search for "market" in [Library Name] Catalog.

I see the following entries in my /var/log/koha/koha-opac-error_log
log file (I have replaced the IP address of the server for hostname):

Do you Tim - or anyone else - have any information that (may help me
to) understand and/or solve this problem?


Thanks in advance!
