Description:
Intention:
I was trying to search for the character "€"
Steps to Reproduce:
- search for the character "€" (without the quotes) using Firefox
Actual Results:
Error message saying "An error has occurred while searching: The search backend returned an error:"
Expected Results:
I expected to end up at our euro sign page. Failing that, I expect an informative error message. No matter what the cause was, you should not send a "The search backend returned an error" message to an end user.
Reproducible: Always
Tested with Firefox 27.0.1 under Windows XP, both with the latest version/updates. Happens every time.
Tested with Opera 18.0.1284.68, Chrome 33.0.1750.146, and IE 8.0.6001.18702.
Chrome and IE sent me to the Euro sign page after a redirect from the Unicode character.
Firefox and Opera gave me the "An error has occurred while searching: The search backend returned an error:" message.
Version: unspecified
Severity: normal
Whiteboard: cirrus-fixed
