           Summary: Search via API fails intermittently
           Product: MediaWiki
           Version: 1.14-svn
          Platform: All
               URL: http://en.wikipedia.org/w/api.php?action=query&list=sear
                    ch&srnamespace=5|6|7&srsearch=word&srlimit=5&format=json
                    fm
        OS/Version: All
            Status: NEW
          Severity: normal
          Priority: Normal
         Component: Search
        AssignedTo: [email protected]
        ReportedBy: [EMAIL PROTECTED]


I submitted the search query in the URL field of this report 3 times; the first
two times I got an API error message, while the third time I got an
(apparently) valid search result.  The error message received was:

"error": {
                "code": "srsearch--disabled",
                "info": " search is disabled",
        }

Evidently the API is receiving an incorrect error code, intermittently, from
some backend module.  I have no way of identifying what causes the search to
succeed some times and fail others, but I can confirm that I used the identical
URL each time.
