Re: MOSS 2007 crawl never ends

Tech-Archive recommends: Fix windows errors by optimizing your registry

Same problem here too

stsadm -o osearch -action stop

Doesn't stop the crawl

There must be some way to fix this :(

One more thing. When i run the "stsadm -o osearch -action stop" command
the
status is still "Crawling" after an half hour. The Crawling seems to be
unable to stop and so seems the osearch service!

I need help with this issue.

Hi,

I also experience the same problem with the crawler that never ends.
There
are no Errors in the Eventlog or Crawl log indicating any type of
problem.
The search works fine except that the crawler never ends, seems like its
stuck in an neverending loop after some 20 000 items in the index.

This is a great problem that must be fixed immediatly becuse this problem
occurs on a production server and it seems to be an obvious bug in the
system. The server is latest MOSS2007 Release Version.

I had this problem and following command fixed it:

stsadm -o osearch -action stop
stsadm -o osearch -action start -role indexQuery

This will stop the microsoft office search service and restart it.

I'm having a lot of problems with the indexer on MOSS 2007, it's
starts a
full crawl and never ends.

I can't stop the crawl or reset the index from central admin, can't
even
stop the mssearch service from the services control panel it just
sticks at
"stopping"

I've installed it clean about 10 times now and even with no content,
just a
couple of site collections, once a full crawl starts it never stops
and ends
up with over 3000 connections to the search database.

W2003 32bit front end and a separate SQL 2005 x64 back end.

Anyone come across this and found the cause?

I'm getting desprate now and I've spent a week re-building MOSS 2007
from
scratch over and over again, every time I get the same problem.

Thanks
