hello,
if I use search function in our mediawiki I often didn't get a result.
e.g. if I search for "vpn" I don't get a result. If I enter
"vpn-verbindung" the page is found. If I enter "verbindung" the page
will be found as well.
Anyone can explain me why it doesn't work?
We use
* MediaWiki <http://www.mediawiki.org/> : 1.11.0
* PHP <http://www.php.net/> : 5.2.1
* MySQL <http://www.mysql.com/> : 5.0.37
thanks!

MySQL only indexes words > 3 characters. You can change it, but you
may want to think it through before deciding whether you really want
it. More details on
