    Backoffice search not producing results - Umbraco 7.1.4.

    After a fresh deployment via Octopus Deploy, I can see my App_Data folder get created with all the necessary Examine indexes.

    I've opened the internal App_Data\TEMP\ExamineIndexes\Internal\Index in luke and done some basic searches on nodeName to get results.

    However in the search in the backoffice just doesn't produce results.

    Calls to /umbraco/backoffice/UmbracoApi/Entity/SearchAll?query=nodeName are returning empty JSON:

    )]}',
    [{"type":"Document","results":[]},{"type":"Media","results":[]},{"type":"Member","results":[]}]

    Anyone any ideas?

    Did you search on nodeName ? Is that in your content ?

    Via Luke? Yes I used nodeName.

    1. Opened Luke, pointed it to \App_Data\TEMP\ExamineIndexes\Internal\Index.
    2. Clicked the Search tab and entered "nodeName:lse.png" - there an image in the Media section called "lse.png".
    3. Results pane shows me 1 result 2285 which matches the known media item:



    4.  In Umbraco, I type "lse" in the search box. I can see the query happen, but no results are returned:

    You can also try to search in the backend. In the developer section there is a Examine Management dashboard. See if that returns any results.

    Won't that require installing a package?

    Nope. It is a tab in the developer section.

    OK - installed the Examine Managemenrt package.

    Used the internal search tool and got a result!

    But still the backoffice search returns nothing!

    Could this be a user-permission thing? I'm guessing but both the Luke and the Examine Managment search are showing me the raw result which sort of proves the index is OK - but does the backoffice search do any security trimming?

    Could it be it thinks my user doesn't have the correct permission to see stuff?

    UPDATE - 

    I've just uploaded a new image - "Light" - and low and behold if I search in the backoffice for "L", I get a result!


    This result also appears through the Examine Management tab - but still, previous items like "lse.png" wont appear in a backoffice search.

    Does the backoffice search only show me items I've created/uploaded?

    Rebuilt the internal index seemed to fix it no idea why.
