We have encountered a big problem with Magento search since this morning. When some (not all) terms are searched for we get an SQL error:
SQLSTATE[42000]: Syntax error or access violation: 1064 You have an error in your SQL syntax; check the manual that corresponds to your MySQL server version for the right syntax to use near '' at line 1
I don't know if this is relevant but the error only seems to occur when a term which is from one of the products added yesterday (the SKU, part of the product name etc.).
I've tried reindexing but it's made no difference.
The trace reads:

If anyone could point us in the right direction it'd be a massive help.

Thanks for the suggestions.
We tried restarting SQL but that had no effect.
What we did find was that the products had been added incorrectly; the associated products had been given the visibility 'Catalog/Search' rather than 'Not Visible Individually'. It was a new-starter who added them.
So it was as simple as that. Thanks for the responses though!
