Topic on Extension talk:SphinxSearch

Hi folks,

I installed SphinxSearch in my companies internal wiki and we're very excited about it. However there's one problem. On some searches the search just redirects to the starting page of the wiki. The HTTP response is 301 moved permanently with the redirect address given as startpage of our wiki. This problem is reproducable on all browsers and pcs (except some browser seem to not be able to handle 301 correctly...).

Is this a known malfunction? Can anyone help me with that?

Thanks

What is different about those searches? If they are a full title match to an existing article in the wiki, it will try to redirect you to that article. You could test this by trying the same query on the actual search page (or making sure you use Search and not Go.)

Good news! It's not the SphinxSearch extension that's causing problems. After some more investigation I found the problem to be lying in another extension (AccessControl) that's installed. Everytime a protected page is part of the search result, AccessControl redirects the user to the login page. This redirect seems to be broken or to be not programmed properly.
