Re: Search Module for http://www.independentngonline.com/

Your search module is not working.  Please do the following:

1) Disable it
2) Fix the problem then turn it back on.

It has been down for at least 3 weeks. It is very annoying each time I use it.  I get this stack trace each time (snippet follows):

[HttpException (0x80004005): Unable to validate data.]
   System.Web.Configuration.MachineKeySection.GetDecodedData(Byte[] buf, Byte[] modifier, Int32 start, Int32 length, Int32& dataLength) +289
   System.Web.UI.ObjectStateFormatter.Deserialize(String inputString) +140

Thanks 

Good alert.

For once, someone not accusing me of bad belleism. Thanks mrPerfect

hehe

we need to pray about this.

Hallelujah! Either cos of this thread or cos they finally got some sense knocked into their heads, the search module is now working. Now, if only they could actually produce results when the article exists (for example, I say etisalat on the home page, searched for etisalat but the results came back with zero results ), it would be all good
