I upgraded a rails application and I ended having this error in staging environment. It worked fine until I restart my searchd. I regenerated the config and re-indexed. I do have an old copy but it does not seem to work with it as well.
Any help greatly appreciated.

As a summary for all the comments, riddle has max_matches as the argument in the code. It will be helpful to pass max_matches depending on the configurations.
