Inplace Search on document libraries and lists is not working

[http://sharepointfarmer.com/inplace-search-on-document-libraries-and-lists-is-not-working/]

I ran into this SharePoint 2013 search problem today. Search center worked correctly returning lots of results. Search service was crowling content correctly, lots of elements in index. But if I used “Find a file” on any document library, it was returning nothing, with message:

“Your search returned no results.”

Some files might be hidden. Include these in your search

These files were indexed and searchable, I was able to find them in Search Centre search results page.

Web Application was on http://intranet.domain.com and AAM was https://intranet.domain.com for Extranet zone.

In Content Sources in Search Service Settings, I notice that start address specified is actually https://intranet.domain.com  Someone just put it there assuming that this is the only site address. WRONG.

This is not correct, URL should be pointing to the default zone http://intranet.domain.com

I changed that, reseted index, recrawled and after that I finally enjoy in place search results.

I hope this will help you as I did not find much info on this problem on the net so far.
