I’m running Discourse 1.7.0.beta6. All searches of site settings return no results. I don’t think this is related to [this](https://meta.discourse.org/t/site-setting-search-shows-no-results-found-inappropriately/22640/4) or [this](https://meta.discourse.org/t/site-settings-search-inappropriately-shows-nothing-found/23520).

I recently changed the hostname. Could that have broken it? (It seems like it has worked since then, but I could be wrong.)

Is there some rake task that rebuilds that search index or something?

I noticed this as well - but I assumed it was an issue with my specific instance, since we’re subfolder.

Can we repro this @eviltrout?

Well, I can’t. I just rebuilt and it’s fine now.

Perhaps my last rebuild was just before this:

There was a regression with my deprecation work that broke this. @zogstrip let me know shortly after I merged it and I fixed it, but if people updated to tests-passed in that timeframe it was broken.

Is a full `./launcher app rebuild` needed, or a simple `/admin/upgrade` sufficiant?

Just a regular admin/upgrade.
