getParam not working on live server? Not sure what is happening but 

{% set searchQuery = craft.request.getParam('q') %}


Does not seem to be working at all on a different server than staging. Anyone seen this before? Any ideas what could be preventing getParam from working? Here is what the end of my url looks like with the param: results?q=test

I then later try to display the search parameter like.

&lt;h1 class="text-uppercase"&gt;Search Results {{searchQuery}}&lt;/h1&gt;


But it only displays Search Results leaving the parameter empty... and my search results seem to be returning everything since it is basically doing a wildcard search since I'm using this below to query the matching results...

{% paginate craft.entries.search(searchQuery).order('score').limit(10) as entries %}


Everything works as expected on staging server.
The client must have added a new rule which was causing the problem.

changed from 

RewriteRule (.+) index.php?p=$1 [L]


to 

RewriteRule (.+) index.php [L]


Not exactly sure why they added that but...
