Hopefully this doesn't really need a new thread as I see a tremendous amount of relevance to this quandary. So, here it goes...
I too am receiving this error.
I traced it to the EasyDiscuss Search Plugin. Once disabling the Search and Smart Search Plugins.. the error goes away.
Furthermore, I was having issues saving standard Joomla Articles. Upon saving it would produce a plain white screen and wouldn't save the article. On page refresh it showed the article as not saved and needing to be checked in.
Hopefully we can find a way around this as we need to be able to search easydiscuss discussions for our support and knowledgebase sections of our company site.
All articles are being managed via the backend.
Question:
Should only one of the Search plugins be enabled? i.e; Search and/or Smart Search?
Is there a specific ordering? i.e; Should the Search Plugins be fired last?
Here's some specifics on my usage:
Joomla! 3.3.6
PHP 5.4
LiteSpeed on CentOS (Should have no effect on anything.. but it's info)
EasyDiscuss is up-to-date
Komento as Comment Form only integrated into Joomla! Articles - Also up-to-date (not sure this would have any effect)
Smart Search is used via an AJAX Search Component (so far there are no conflicts.. thus, I assume this has no effect)
Any further discussion would be awesome!
Rock on SI ... and hope to hear some solutions soon!
