2. Try to search
3. Always get the 0 result

Expected result

1. if Magento is allowing to set minimum query value to 1 from admin then it should work with that scenario otherwise just put message minimum query length 1 is not allowed

I found the core file where its defined as a constant for minimal character count even admin have configuration for that.

vendor\magento\framework\Search\Adapter\Mysql\Query\Builder\Match.php (MINIMAL_CHARACTER_LENGTH)

Make sure the MySQL variable(ft_min_word_len=2) set as you want to search.

I hope this hot fix will help.
