Hi,

It was reported to me that one of our clients couldn't search for the word 
diy in their index today. I noticed that it the index had been built on a 
new server and started checking versions and whatnot.

server1: SWISH-E 2.4.4
server2: SWISH-E 2.4.4

both machines have identical config files (i forklifted the directories) 
for testing, i copied one xml test file and indexed it on each machine.

indexing results for server1:

bwayipn02# ./bin/test.sh
Indexing Data Source: "File-System"
Indexing "/usr/local/indexing/test"

Checking dir "/usr/local/indexing/test"...

server1:
bwayipn02# swish-e -T INDEX_WORDS -f test.index | grep diy
diy [1 1 1 (819/1)] [18 1 1 (328/1)] [29 1 1 (819/1)]

server2:
bwayipn04# swish-e -T INDEX_WORDS -f test.index | grep diy
diy [1 1 1 (819/1)] [18 1 1 (328/1)] [29 1 1 (819/1)]

server1:
bwayipn02# swish-e -w diy -f test.index
# SWISH format: 2.4.4
# Search words: diy
# Removed stopwords:
# Number of hits: 1
# Search time: 0.000 seconds

.

server2:
bwayipn04# swish-e -w diy -f test.index
# SWISH format: 2.4.4
# Search words: diy
# Removed stopwords:
err: no results
.

if i copy the index from server1 -> server2, the word can be found. 
likewise, if i copy an index from server2 -> server1, the search fails.
