Xerxes Error Messsage...

[Jonathan Jiras]

Hello Xerxes folks:

Since this afternoon we are getting this error when we try to search via Xerxes. (note actual path to file names in the error message below is obscured) because this is a public list.

Anything jump out at anyone?

Searching directly in Metalib is OK:
Notice: Trying to get property of non-object in /xerxes /lib/Xerxes/metalib/MetaSearch.php on line 131

Fatal error: Uncaught exception 'Exception' with message 'Could not initiate search with Metalib server' in /xerxes/commands/metasearch/MetasearchSearch.php:234 Stack trace: #0 /xerxes /lib/framework/Command.php(31): Xerxes_Command_MetasearchSearch->doExecute(Object(Xerxes_Framework_Request), Object(Xerxes_Framework_Registry)) #1 /xerxes/lib/framework/FrontController.php(351): Xerxes_Framework_Command->execute(Object(Xerxes_Framework_Request), Object(Xerxes_Framework_Registry)) #2 /xerxes /index.php(22): Xerxes_Framework_FrontController::execute() #3 {main} thrown in

Hi Jonathan,

Can you search in the Metalib /V interface?

If you go to /X do you see any warning messages? If so, which version of Xerxes are you running?

/X gets this:

<x_server_response metalib_version="4.4.0 (667)">
<global_error>
<error_code>2004</error_code>
<error_text>The XML request cannot be parsed</error_text>
</global_error>
</x_server_response>

/V runs fine and we can search in it.

We are running Xerxes 1.8.1.

I'm not sure what the issue is. Maybe just try restarting Metalib?

For the record, restarting metalib worked... thanks for the suggestion.
