Search displays only first page?

In two different browsers I get the same behaviour. For example, a search for Author ben_josephs, or terrypin, displays page 1 only. Headed 1494 and 66 hits respectively. But clicking Next or 2 or any number gives an error message in TextPad 7.6.4 (64-bit Edition):
No topics or posts met your search criteria

Quoting part of my reply to "What is this symbol?":

I and others have raised and recognized this issue already, but so far nobody wants to migrate this phpBB installation to a more recent one:

2018-06-07 Community forum software does not work properly (next page)

2021-01-18: This phpBB installation falls apart

2021-10-16: "Goto page 1, 2, 3 ..." does NOT work

In the meanwhile use the board search with at least thinking a few steps ahead, combining multiple of the following points:

Want to see all posts of someone? Use the Search for Author textbox with the username. Of course: can be your own, too.

In Display results as choose Topics - this will yield much more results on one page than using Posts.

In Sort by consider using Ascending if you rather want to find old than new content.

In Search for Keywords make sure that you tick Search for all terms because otherwise you get too many results matching only one of the terms instead of having EVERY word.
