[xwiki-users] Search failing after upgrade to 7.2

Hi We upgraded to 7.2 today and I’m having a couple of issues that I hope someone can help me with. I’ve had a look through the recent mailing list topics and nothing seems to match. · We have a custom skin based on Flamingo but the skin hasn’t picked up the new changes to the skin. I’ve tried searching for the tutorial for creating a custom skin and can’t find it. So can someone please help me with: o Link to the tutorial/documentation for creating a custom skin o The physical location on the file system where the custom skin is stored. I can’t seem to find it for some reason. · More importantly, search appears to be broken. Any help in fixing would be greatly appreciated. The error is that it “Failed to execute the [velocity] Macro”. When I click for more detail, I get: (sorry for the length) org.xwiki.rendering.macro.MacroExecutionException: Failed to evaluate Velocity Macro for content [#handleSolrSearchRequest] at
