Dear All,

I have trawled for the last few days but have not been able to come up with a solution; any help would be much appreciated.

Exchange 2007 STD on Windows 2003 64Bit and users report search not working in OWA.

So I first check indexing is enabled on the mail stores

Get-MailboxDatabase |ft Name,IndexEnabled

which all report true, So I try a test

Test-ExchangeSearch [email protected]

Which is a false -1

Ok, So I run the reset -

resetsearchindex.ps1

this works and the event log reports the stores being crawled and finished.

BUT- My complete catalogue data is 300kb - LOL! I wish!

Obviously all tests fail

so I do it manually;

Stop indexing service, Delete catalogues. Restart

Still no dice,

This is where I’m up to, I have tried many different variations of the above and being through oodles of MS documentation

Has anyone got any ideas?
