Maybe some of the php settings are not correct, which php version are you using? Check the back office, preferences (i believe it was this in 1.4), configuration information, and see if verything is setup correctly. Maybe magic quotes are on?

 

 

Just guessing

To ensure all of your products are indexed go to your backend, click on preferences and then search. Once in there you will see how many products have been indexed. If you had the same problem as me you will see that 0 products have been indexed. This is because I imported products from a CSV. Manually inserted products are automatically indexed.

 

Once you are in backoffice->preferences->search you will see something like

Indexed products: 44 / 44.

-> Add missing products to index.

-> Re-build entire index.

 

You can click either option to re-index your products. Once you don’t have thousands of entries it should take < 1 min to do. You can also set up a cron job to perform this indexing regularly for you.

Other options on this screen inclued

  • Ajax search: To automatically fill in your search box, like google
  • Minimum word length
  • Blacklisted words

There are also options here to weight your search results using various factors such as weight, tags etc.
