Dunno. I think the error is because the Sphinx/MySQL server that does the searching can't be contacted.

Not sure if that means there's a separate server that gets rebooted or something like an AWS server that exceeds its free limits or something else.

It is working again now though, if only I could remember what it was I was looking for before.

I don't use it much. I'm cruiser. I cruise until I find something I want to read, then kick back and read it. :)
