I was doing a search, assuming you could leave off some characters and just get partial hits using the first part of a name.

Got this nice error:

java.io.IOException: Bad file descriptor

I cant replicate - can you remember your exact search terms?

I noticed a similar problem with searches: none of mine have returned results that were posted before today. One example is "MEQ". No posts containing that term prior to today were listed.

woops... I applied some security patches today and had to restart the server, and forgot to restart the search indexer when it came back up. It is now reindexing the old posts so it should be back to normal in an hour or so. Thanks for posting!
