Hello everyone,

I have my wiki a) on hosted web space, b) on a local "UwAmp" server (like XAMMP). Everything is mirrored identically, only the php version is different: online 8.2.16, offline 8.0.0.

When I SEARCH, I always get more search results online than offline. More precisely: more pages! The hits within the pages are the same. Why? Probably the php configuration (which I could change with php.ini)? What value could I change there?

Any other reason?

Thanks for any tips!

Martin, Siegen, Germany

Do you use the same search form? Sometimes, custom search forms may be 
configured to search only in a section of the wiki. There may be a 
different search form in different groups, or on different pages. One 
search form may search through a different set of pages than for example 
the global search form in the header or sidebar.

If it is the same form and everything is identical, I wouldn't be 
surprised if some environment settings are different on the 2 servers. 
Check the global $_SERVER and $_ENV entries, like we discussed a few 
weeks ago, and look for the differences.

I would imagine that the default LOCALES may be different on the 2 
servers. If this is the case, the search index and the search function 
may use different character folding rules, and searches for strings with 
international characters or diacritics may return different results.

The code below will try to set the locale to German (UTF-8) for 
different servers:

   // Set locale to German (UTF-8) for any OS
   setlocale(LC_ALL,
     'deu_DEU.utf8',      // Common on Windows
     'german_germany.utf8',
     'german_germany',
     'de_DE.UTF-8',       // Common on Linux and macOS
     'de_DE.utf8',
     'de_DE',
     'deu_deu',
     'German_Germany'     // Possible on macOS
   );

After that, the same user with the same permissions, searching for the 
same terms, should see the same results.

Otherwise, the search results may vary if you have settings in a 
conditional, different locally and online, for example 
$EnablePageListProtect or $SearchPatterns.

Or, if you have different user access permissions, say passwordless 
login on one but not on the other.

If not, I'd check for file permissions, and if both server+php processes 
have access to all PmWiki files (in wiki.d and wikilib.d).
