             Bug #: 35691
           Summary: Occasional temporary problem: no search results for
                    any search terms
           Product: Wikimedia
           Version: unspecified
          Platform: All
        OS/Version: All
            Status: NEW
          Severity: normal
          Priority: Unprioritized
         Component: lucene-search-2
        AssignedTo: rain...@eunet.rs
        ReportedBy: rd...@hotmail.com
    Classification: Unclassified
   Mobile Platform: ---


According to a report at
https://commons.wikimedia.org/wiki/Commons:Requests_for_comment/improving_search#Report_properly_when_search_don.27t_work,
Commons search can occasionally fail completely (no search results for any
search terms). Up to ten times per month, blackout durations of 25 minutes have
been observed - but that's just one person reporting, so it's presumably much
more common than that. 

This is presumably caused by some kind of database/index update. If a temporary
blackout cannot be avoided during such updates, the system should at least say
what's going on.
