Well, that's a LONG answer to a short question, but two common places 
to start are

        http://www.mnogosearch.ru/
        Formerly called udmSearch, this can use MySQL as a backend; 
looks quite nice - Perl & PHP frontends.

        http://www.htdig.org/
        Not quite sure what it uses for its database, but I'm sure it 
could be hacked to use MySQL.

Two other search engines are Glimpse/WebGlimpse and Swish-E, although 
I don't know a whole lot about them. You could also do a web search 
for 'text indexing', 'intranet search', or something. You have plenty 
of reading material then...
