Do you index sites with Solr TYPO3 ext? Are you sure data is in the index? 
I had a similar issue: the indexer finished without errors but search did 
not work. I figured out first that Solr did not have anything in it. When I 
looked further, I found that file_get_contents() is disabled on this server 
but curl was not enabled in Solr ext. So Solr ext was not able to connect 
to Solr server. I just enabled curl in Solr ext TS and everything worked.
