Database Errors When Searching

[Syndog]

I'm trying to perform a search of the forums, but consistently get database errors, and told to report the error to an administrator.

Before:


After:


I'm using Google Chrome 27, but have also tried this on Firefox 21 with the same result.  Also tried disabling JavaScript, to no avail.

Don't check all forums. You can easily remove half of them (bindings, website, ...), and in this case the search works much better

And if your problem is with SFML.Net, it's even better, you just have one forum to check.

(yes, it's not obvious at first sight, but you can click the "CHOOSE A BOARD TO SEARCH" bar to see the list of forums)

That's a useful tip, and I appreciate it.  I'll be sure to narrow the focus of my future searches.

Are you saying that if I have an issue I want to search all forums for, I'm unable to do that without getting a cryptic database error?  That's somewhat disturbing, don't you think?

Most likely, yes.

It is. But I'm not a system admin, I haven't got much time to mess with the forum, the database or my web host.
