Hi,
I stopped my apache cleared the error log and restarted. Then I
directly
called the search url with 'transaction' as keyword and got the blank
screen. Then I called the url with 'transaction backout' as the
keyword
and got the search results. The error log contents is below:

I commented out all my extensions and tried, but in vain.
As I said earlier, the search is not failing on all the words, but
only
on some words. That's making this problem worse.. :)
Regards,
Jack

Um... which logfile are you getting this from? I was wondering more
about the httpd error log and expecting a php message like: FATAL
ERROR: something or other on line X in something.php.
Also, is the white screen of death dependent on any extensions? I
recently found one with one of my extensions (PagesOnDemand/
PMIDonDemand - I wrote the latter, so it's my fault!) where a failure
condition didn't check to see whether creation of an article object
had succeeded, followed by trying to call a method on a non-object.
I'm wondering if either
a) and extension is sensitive to the specific page names that cause
the
crash or
b) database damage is leading to failure to create a page that MW
thinks is there, but which doesn't have the right database entries.
That usually doesn't give the white screen of death, though.

Anything in the error logs when you get the blank page? And by
blank to
you mean white screen of death or blank wiki skin with no content?

When I search with SOME keywords, my production

"blank"
page. If I use the same words on the test wiki, no probs-results
are
returned (content in both wikis are same). Some of the problematic
words are "transaction" (transaction backout has no problem),
function, cards (plastic cards is fine), account etc.
Sounds like one of those "security" plugins for your web server,
perhaps mod_security.
It's set in an overprotective mode that freaks out and denies access
when it sees bits of text coming through the form submission that it
thinks are indicative of an SQL or code injection attack.
Contact your system administrator and let them know they've
misconfigured the software and should back it out to more reasonable
settings.
