The search_doc command is sometimes not working

[GregoryBard]

The command search_doc, such as

search_doc("lagrange multipliers")

does not work on my SageMathCloud project, "Gregory Collaborations on Sage."

https://cloud.sagemath.com/projects/c096352d-b392-499a-8899-6bfa794d7504/files/smc.wiki/temporary%20scratch%20for%20commands.sagews

Instead, I get this error message:

Error in lines 1-1 Traceback (most recent call last): File "/projects/sage/sage-6.10/local/lib/python2.7/site-packages/smc_sagews/sage_server.py", line 948, in execute exec compile(block+'\n', '', 'single') in namespace, locals File "", line 1, in File "/projects/sage/sage-6.10/local/lib/python2.7/site-packages/sage/misc/sagedoc.py", line 1139, in search_doc **kwds) File "/projects/sage/sage-6.10/local/lib/python2.7/site-packages/sage/misc/sagedoc.py", line 925, in _search_src_or_doc pager.pager()(results) File "/projects/sage/sage-6.10/local/lib/python2.7/site-packages/IPython/core/page.py", line 274, in page return pager_page(data, start, screen_lines, pager_cmd) File "/projects/sage/sage-6.10/local/lib/python2.7/site-packages/IPython/core/page.py", line 234, in pager_page pager_encoding = pager.encoding or sys.stdout.encoding AttributeError: 'BufferedOutputStream' object has no attribute 'encoding'

Around 2 pm, Wisconsin time, @hsy noted:

the odd thing is, that it works on those nodes which are restarted, i.e. those free ones. since there are no significant differences, I assume that rebooting the member machines should also solve this. but sure, make an issue, reminds us to check on this.
