I think I might have some more info now. in short I was simply trying to test out the Catalog MFE so I’ve removed others like Discovery and that got the course listing to work again.
but now if I want to use catalog mfe I need to install edx-search 4.4.0 like:
from tutor import hooks
INSTALL_SEARCH_440 = r"""
RUN --mount=type=cache,target=/openedx/.cache/pip,sharing=shared \
pip install "edx-search==4.4.0"
"""
hooks.Filters.ENV_PATCHES.add_items([
("openedx-dockerfile-post-python-requirements", INSTALL_SEARCH_440),
("openedx-dev-dockerfile-post-python-requirements", INSTALL_SEARCH_440),
])
but this gives an error building the openedx image:
tutor images build openedx

1.257 hint: This error likely indicates that `loremipsum@1.0.5` depends
1.257 on `pkg_resources`, but doesn't declare it as a build dependency. If
1.257 `loremipsum` is a first-party package, consider adding `pkg_resources`
1.257 to its `build-system.requires`. Otherwise, either add it to your
1.257 `pyproject.toml` under:
1.257
1.257 [tool.uv.extra-build-dependencies]
1.257 loremipsum = ["pkg_resources"]
1.257
1.257 or `uv pip install pkg_resources` into the environment and re-run with
1.257 `--no-build-isolation`.

But without edx-search==4.4.0 then I’m missing the endpoint unstable/v0/course_list_search thus I’m getting a 404 when listing courses, that’s why everything is empty:
