Search Too Common Words Error

Post by makfun » Tue Nov 30, 2010 9:02 am

I want to search "windows" or something else like "windows help" keywords but i am getting error
The following words in your search query were ignored because they are too common words: windows. You must specify at least one word to search for. Each word must consist of at least 3 characters and must not contain more than 14 characters excluding wildcards.
What shall i do. I want to remove this query. Please guide

admin panel
general

You can adjust the criteria there.

The common word threshold is at the bottom of that page.

You will need to rebuild your search index.

Click the Search Index link on the Maintenance tab of the ACP.
Delete your old index and create a new one.

This is a problem with your database server. Try repairing your phpbb_posts table in phpMyadmin.
