Hi there
I think I found the solution to the problem.
Do the following change to the file SearchEnginge.php in /includes
Change Line 148 from
public static function legalSearchChars() {
to
function legalSearchChars() {
I have no idea whether this will impact other functionalities but at least
the the wildcard search will work ;-)

Hi,
I tried to install this extension and failed as well. Have also tried to
contact it's author Assel Pathirana, no answer so far. Maybe try Lucene
Search instead.
