Vane with external SearXNG incorrectly reports "Found 0 results" in Speed/Balanced, even though SearXNG returns non-empty results.
Repro:
- Vane
slim-latest - external SearXNG via
SEARXNG_API_URL - same query works in Quality
- Speed/Balanced show
Found 0 results
Direct call from inside the Vane container:
curl -s "http://<searxng>/search?q=WTA%20500%20Stuttgart%20prize%20money%20table%202024%202025%202026&format=json"
Returned payload contains:
"number_of_results": 0- non-empty
"results": [...]
So Vane seems to treat number_of_results as authoritative and discards valid results. This matches current SearXNG behavior where number_of_results can be obsolete/inaccurate while results still contains items.
