I am using MT 2.51 and search has been working, now it is not. I am getting the following error: "Can't call method "id" on an undefined value at lib/MT/App/Search.pm line 158

I checked to make sure that search.pm was where it's supposed to be and it is.

Here is the link to my blog

Have you experienced any other strange behavior with MT or your blog?

That error message makes me a bit nervous, because it could potentially be a hint about database corruption.

I'm not sure why the search stopped working. I may have corrupted my own data base as I had some entries without titles (dumb me). I fixed that and replace my search code with the following:

Thanks for your response and hope this helps someone else out

I'm having a sort of related problem. My regular blog search works fine, but I get an error about undefined values when attempting to do the new comments search.
