When I add in a simple search form on a page of my website, I receive a 500 server error (before the page loads and the user can even attempt to search). I have identified that it is definitely the search form. I even simplified the tag down to:
{exp:search:simple_form}
{/exp:search:simple_form}and the problem still occurs. if I remove the tags, voila the page loads fine. I get no PHP errors and nothing is written into my servers log files, either. This is on EE 1.6.9. Any help is appreciated!
