Hi Gerd,
great that you got it working. The Errors are due to the mercury
template version. Commenting out the lines in the template is very
sufficient.
The searchform module was my fault - it was present in earlier versions,
but was integrated in the default documentation module for the 11th
version documentation - so it's simply not existing anymore.
Best, Daniel.
