After loading a lot of new data in our DataGerry instance, we lost the ability to search.  
Our datagerry log files shows the following error message:  
[Search Framework Rest]: invalid literal for int() with base 10: ‘SearchString’ (search\_routes.py)

It seems that a python script is trying to convert our SearchString into an integer which of course fails. Any idea where I can investigate the source of this error ?
