I have a similar problem. In my case, both commands
http://localhost:5000/release/5d9a5a55-e75f-4282-906b-1141f94f1885
http://localhost:5000/ws/2/release/5d9a5a55-e75f-4282-906b-1141f94f1885
does return informations, the first as a nice result HTML page, the second returns as XML.
But if I enter the text "Madonna" on http://localhost:5000/ as artist search string, I don't get results. I get a nice MusicBrainz page including this "error":
Search Error
Sorry, but your query "(query)" did not match any artists. Please check you used the correct spelling. Sometimes searching for fewer or different words may also help.
For assistance in writing effective advanced search queries, read the syntax documentation.
If I would know the MBID for Madonna, I could enter
http://localhost:5000/artist/79239441-bfd5-4981-a70c-55c3f15c1287
in the browser and I would get the desired result.
What I'm doing wrong, that the search for text like "Madonna" doesn't work?
