Sharepoint 2010 Issues

BoomAM · 26 Apr 2011 at 15:03

Hi,
Im just configuring a new SP2010 installation for the new company intranet and im having a few issues with the search service.
Ive got it set to crawl a few test areas, the entire sharepoint farm as default (which i have a library setup with 1 test doc in it) and a share with the same doc.

Now according to the crawler, its found stuff, but when i goto search, nothing comes up at all!?

Additionally, i cant create crawl schedules as it just comes up with a login box when i press ok on the new schedule settings, which when i put the SP service account login into, then changes to a 404 page!

Any ideas?

Thanks in advance all

No errors in the ULS? Is the test file showing up as crawled in the search logs?

Unified Logging Service

Download ULS viewer to go though them.

I'm far from being an expert, but will try my best.

Sounds like a services/username issue. Check the ones you have are assigned the right privaligdes and password.

Right, what am i looking for in the ULS?

And a username/password issue where?
Im logged in with the Site Admin login?

##EDIT##
And what's the difference between Server Search & Foundation Help Search?

##EDIT2##
Still cant create search crawl schedules & what files do i point ULS at as the logs folder in program files is empty?

##EDIT3##
Ive managed to fix the crawl schedules problem by following a tip i saw on MSDN, going through all the setup wizards again and changing now. lol.
Still cant search though

It crawls, and finds the limited amount of data we have in, but wont display any results.

##EDIT4##
It seems since ive done the above that users can now login and see the main page....and search works for them! :-o

But still not for the admin account off the server...wierd.

Is that normal?

Do you have any warnings in Health Analyser about search related services?

I'm not sure if you should see results as farm admin or not. I don't understand why you wouldn't. Did you set up search scopes for limited results for specific user groups or anything?

BoomAM · 8 May 2011 at 16:36

None that i can see.

& no search scopes set. Only thing thats been set is what to crawl and what login to use for it.
