I have also gotten this error in another weird case: I had database_name set up in Lasso Admin on one server where the database was not available, and I also had the same database_name set up on another server and Lasso Admin had appended an asterisk to its name. Any search would return a 609.

I deleted the databases from the host where they were not available, and renamed them on the host where they actually were by removing the asterisk. Suddenly everything worked fine.

I have noticed that you can get a 609 error when the FM Database has no password specified for the account Lasso uses to connect to FileMaker. FileMaker 7.2, Lasso 7.1.2

This error often shows up when you are performing an action on a FileMaker Layout that includes related fields. If those related fields are not contained within a portal on that layout, it can give you the error "Error while performing FileMaker database -search action". Put the related fields in a portal and it will work.
