Bug ID: 56877
Summary: CirrusSearch should catch Elasticsearch query parse
errors and try again with a more tolerant method
Product: MediaWiki extensions
Version: unspecified
Hardware: All
OS: All
Status: NEW
Severity: normal
Priority: Unprioritized
Component: CirrusSearch

Mobile Platform: ---
CirrusSearch does a lot to make sure that the query submitted by the user
parses to a valid query_string search. This mostly works but we keep finding
funky queries that need escaping. Right now when the query string doesn't
parse we get a "temporary search error" that we through back to the user. We
should instead catch these errors, warn so we can find them and fix them, and
then try using a more permissive query method. We don't use that method by
default because it doesn't support a bunch of the syntax that our users expect.
Not getting your syntax is better than getting an error.
