UPDATE: Got the form up by using the advice initially provided. Upon searching and with much excitement in the air I was disappointed to get a blank screen :/ "search?Search=test&action_getResults=Go"

I am trying to debug this at the moment.

I am still stuck with a blank page upon searching any query.

My result for Sphinx/diagnose is:

NOTICES: - Database type: mysql - Database server: 127.0.0.1 - Database port: 3306 - Database props: sphinxss_db - Sphinx listening to: /tmp/silverstripe-cache-var-www-sphinxss/sphinx/searchd.sock - Sphinx configuration location is /tmp/silverstripe-cache-var-www-sphinxss/sphinx - Sphinx binary locations: /usr/local/bin/indexer, /usr/local/bin/searchd, /usr/local/bin/search

Aram if you get to this point and figure something out then please let me know.

Hi Mark, apologies if I was unclear. The page is completely blank and there is no error in my Apache error log. This has me scratching my head.

I am thus not getting any search results.

I think it is just that the results are not rendered with any template.

Do I need to create my own result template and controller?, if so can anyone help me out with a sample or will the module default to the Page_results.ss template?

UPDATE:

I overwrote ContentControllerSearchExtension and reference SphinxSearchForm. Also set allowed actions on the relevant controllers. I now get results but had to manually add my custom class to the $classesToSearch.
