    ExamineManager error: Unable to load default search provider

    We have been getting the following Error quite a lot, that seems to bring the website down in production. Trying to find the connection between the two. Can someone throw a light on what causes these errors ad how to fix them?

    Error loading IApplication: System.Reflection.TargetInvocationException: Exception has been thrown by the target of an invocation. ---> System.TypeInitializationException: The type initializer for 'Examine.ExamineManager' threw an exception. ---> System.Configuration.Provider.ProviderException: Unable to load default search provider
    If Examine questions should be redirected somewhere else, please suggest where! thanks

    This is a bit of an old post, but I believe the cause of the Examine error is that your config/ExaminSettings.config has an error. Examine is trying to load whatever you have setup as your defaultProvider attribute of the ExamineSearchProviders node, and probably not finding the corresponding provider.

    Should also add, for completeness, that you can mess up web.config so that you get this type error because there are 2 sections in web.config that relate to search.
