Hi,

> Hi, we successfully installed mnogosearch on a Linux/Apache server website back in 2007. This was version 3.2 and it has worked very well since then. However, we recently changed server hardware and upgraded the server software as well. Here is our current setup:
> 
> Apache version 	2.2.23
> PHP version 	5.2.17
> MySQL version 	5.0.96-community
> Architecture 	x86_64
> Operating system 	linux
> 
> When visitors now try to use search they get an internal server error, e.g.:
> 
> http://fourthirds-user.com/cgi-bin/search.cgi/search.html?q=lens
> 
> Internal Server Error
> 
> The server encountered an internal error or misconfiguration and was unable to complete your request.
> 
> Please contact the server administrator, [email protected] and inform them of the time the error occurred, and anything you might have done that may have caused the error.
> 
> More information about this error may be available in the server error log.

Possibly, it does not find some shared libraries.

Have a look into Apache's error.log,
or try to run search.cgi from command line.

I'd suggest to upgrade to the latest 3.3.

There is no a special upgrade guide.
The easiest way is just to install the new version,
copy and adjust configuration files, and crawl your
site again from scratch.

Feel free to send your configuration files 
(indexer.conf and search.htm) for review
whether they need any adjustments for 3.3.
