This article would definitely be helpful to few people, who are experiencing search issues however I had to add SharePoint service account with full control to the MOSS Site (portal web application) by going to Central Administration => Application Security => Policy for Web application to resolve this error in my environment. This is in addition to your steps.

Following steps, mentioned in this article did not resolve my errors until I added SharePoint service account with full control to portal web application as explained above. I hope this will help to few other people, who are unable to resolve their search issue by following your article.

This is the BEST article, I have found on internet for this specific issue.

Hello Brijesh

I was also facing same problem, as per your article, I followed the steps and now everything is fixed. But I am not able to crawl , it is showing old no. of items, rather than actual items in crawls. I also noticed that in scope, it is also not crawaling.

Let me know what should I do?

I didn't need to move the index but it had somehow become corrupted and deleting it and creating a new one fixed the issue.

Thanks

Oh.. Thank you! I had this problem for a while and wasn't able to resolve the issue, until I saw your blog. I did Stop, Start search for index and query services more than 20 times and propagated the index file location more than 5 times.

Well, well, well, after reviewing your step, I checked the Timer Service Status on both WFE servers, which I assigned a Query Search Server role. The Timer Service was stopped and it didn't get started even if I manaully started it using "NET START SPTIMERV3".

The fix to all of my troubles was starting Windows SharePoint Services Administration Service manually.

Thanks again for sharing your valuable information!
