[Moin-user] Help -- search in moin-1.9.3 does not work for me

Do you mean the moin debian package or the download?

To maybe narrow down the problem, you could try running your stuff with
wikiserver.py.

Does any non-search wiki page access work normally? The non-xapian
search is rather simple, just linearly searching one page after the
other.

Does TitleIndex work?

Did you do this using the same uid as the wiki script is executed with?
If you did not, you may have permissions problems due to wrong owner of
the xapian index.
