I've been trying to use the "Search..." in the page header for some months. Every search I attempt returns: The search could not be completed. Please try again later. Is this search actually working? Is there another seacrh method I should be using? Mark
So....there is a weird bug....when the site sees heavy usage, it doesn't work, when I can try to diagnose it without impacting the site, it works...
Please keep in mind that we did not write the software. So there may limits as to what we can do to resolve an issue. Sometimes a bug makes itself obvious, other times it is a sneaky pest causing all of us headaches. John has spent considerable time trying to catch this varmint. We are not happy that it is causing folks trouble. Please bear with us.
I realize the limits for debugging someone else's software, but at this point I've tried to use search over a 5 day period (2/13-2/18), weekdays, over the weekend, during the day, night and at 1:00AM and before this sporadically for months. It seems to be very consistent at this point. Good luck on debugging it. Mark
l honestly just took a wild guess while at work last night....I.E. 3:00am and everything that I could do was done, and playing with a server is work related.
I worked in Silicon Valley for 25 years and the most important thing I learned was to NEVER underestimate the power of dumb luck.
