Thank you Tomas for advice!
We do plan to upgrade to latest versions as soon as possible.
For the time being I checked run.cgi for Bonito
# ConcCGI options
_cache_dir = _data_dir + '/cache'
_tmp_dir = _data_dir + '/tmp'
subcpath = [_data_dir + '/subcorp/GLOBAL']
gdexpath = [] # [('confname', '/path/to/gdex.conf'), ...]
user_gdex_path = "" # /path/to/%s/gdex/ %s to be replaced with username
I did not define any gdex options because we are not using gdex.

It looks normal, I did notice there was no GLOBAL directory inside subcorp, so I made one and assigned ownership to www-data:www-data
valdiss@nosketch:/var/lib/bonito/subcorp$ mkdir GLOBAL
valdiss@nosketch:/var/lib/bonito/subcorp$ sudo chown -R www-data:www-data GLOBAL/
valdiss@nosketch:/var/lib/bonito/subcorp$ ls -l

drwxr-xr-x 2 www-data www-data 4096 Oct 13 11:19 GLOBAL
Restarted apache2 just in case.
Problem still persists, concordances Advanced search can use Text type filters, but Wordlist Advanced search can not.
Will update, if/when I make any progress with this issue.
Sincerely,
Valdis
