Firefox Search Bar NOT Working!!!

I upgraded to Karmic Koala and the Firefox Search Bar stopped functioning.

Firefox Search Bar

The Search Bar is the small area on the right of the Address bar.

If I give a keyword and press ENTER or click the 'Magnifying glass' icon, nothing happens.

Here is the fix:

1. Shut down firefox
2. Go to mozilla profile folder ( $HOME/.mozilla/firefox/<something> )
3. Rename formhistory.sqlite to something else

mv formhistory.sqlite formhistory.sqlite.bak

That's all :)
