Search not working properly

Question

After upgrading Confluence to 6.15 search not working properly.

For example if i search "director" for Active Directory it doesn't work, but if i search "director*" it work.

I tried to rebuild search index and completely remove index directories, but it doesn't help.

No, but google search is intentionally "fuzzy" at first and gets you to narrow down later.  Most Confluence users do not want to have to do iterative search refining, they are looking for precise searches.

Hi @Dave Bosman _Inetum_ , thanks for answer!

It's strange behavior. I think search must work with half-word requests and it's worked normally before upgrade (version was 6.12.2).

For example Google search doesn't make you to write requests with wildcards
