ENTER in the search box

Hello,

I have the same Problem with Magento CE 1.7.0.2. The indexing process works and 
the the data is saved on the Solr server, but the search in magento shows "Your 
search returns no results".

What can we do?

I've no real solution to the problem, but only a little workaround. Because it 
was only an experiment, I didn't dig deeper to get it working, but I'll share 
my actions anyway...

I've patched the file 'app/code/local/Magentix/Solr/Model/Search.php', on line 
70?! Comment out the additional parameter 'fq' => 'store_id:'.$storeId

How did I get there? In the same file around line 72, I've changed the POST 
into a GET. Now I was able the read the whole request from Magento to Solr in 
the logs (e.g. /opt/bitnami/apache-solr/logs/*). I took this request and 
identified the error-causing parameter on http://[solr-server]/solr/admin/

As I mentioned above, this will only be a dirty trick, to get _any_ search 
results. Of Course, it would make sense to limit the results to a certain store.

Btw. the parameter 'fq' is an abbreviation for 'filter query', which means to 
allow reducing the responded search result. In my case, the search request used 
a different storeId than I expected to be used from the shop search. I think, 
this will be a good starting point to isolate the real problem.
