You are using server side processing ("serverSide": true,) which means the server script is responsible for search, sorting and paging. The protocol is documented here. Here is a basic server side example. Here is the example ssp script used by the exmaples.

Are you using a datatables provided server side script? You will need to look at your server script to determine why its not searching.
