 * You should create a FullText index in your posts table for the id column in your
   MySQL WordPress database and that should alleviate your problems.

 * Hello,
 * I’m pretty new to WordPress and am experiencing the same problem after upgrading
   to version 2.1. Could someone point me in the right direction for instructions
   on creating an index, please?
 * Thank you,
