https://bugzilla.wikimedia.org/show_bug.cgi?id=35691 --- Comment #11 from Foroa for...@gmail.com --- It happens in bursts in the sense that is appears every now and then when the servers seem overloaded for some time, and then you can have several time-outs, even for the same search, which is exceptional; most of the time a second attempt returns the answer. This morning, I've got it 6 or 7 times. This morning: I got 2 or 3 times an error with [http://commons.wikimedia.org/w/index.php?title=Special%3ASearchprofile=advancedsearch=Indian+Muslims+-incategory%3A%22Indian_Muslims%22fulltext=Searchns0=1ns14=1redirs=1profile=advanced this search]. It displays in red, just underneath the namespace tick boxes: An error has occurred while searching: HTTP request timed out.

When this gadget is enabled it allows one to choose from a dropdown menu of various search engines at [[:en:Special:Search]]. It could easily be expanded to also have an option to do site searches: *http://www.google.com/#q=site:commons.wikimedia.org This would be especially useful during times when Wikimedia's search slows down or stops.

On the Commons an error message should show up with this Google site search link: *http://www.google.com/#q=site:commons.wikimedia.org I suggest leaving that link in the sidebar all the time. Titled Google site search or Google search. At least a preference, if not by default. Many people, myself included, mainly use the Firefox browser. Google does not allow the Google Toolbar on it. It did in the past, and I greatly miss its ease of use for doing site searches. None of the site-search addons for Firefox are as easy as the Google Toolbar. So a link to Google site search in the sidebar would fill multiple needs on the Commons. It would be used a lot. -- Configure bugmail: https://bugzilla.wikimedia.org/userprefs.cgi?tab=email --- You are receiving this mail because: --- You are the assignee for the bug.

If a temporary blackout cannot be avoided during such updates, the system should at least say what's going on. It's generally when one of the indexers go down (thus effecting whatever wikis it has indexes for), If that is the case MW won't really know the cause other than something is wrong with one of the lucen boxes.
