Exchange 2007 Indexing
I have an exchange 2007 server that was ported over from a 2003 server. The indexing was working fine for a very long time but now has stopped working all together as of SP1, and all updates. I have rebuilt the catalog several times. It has not grown any time I have rebuilt it. I have done this manually and with the predefined scripts in the Exchange Scripts folder.
I am at a loss here. I set the DB is index by the following command:
Set-MailboxDatabase MailboxDatabaseName -IndexEnabled $true
and verified by this command:
Get-MailboxDatabase |select name, indexenabled
Name IndexEnabled
---- ------------
Mailbox Database True
When I check my user or any user for that matter I get:
Test-ExchangeSearch jgravel
ResultFound SearchTime
----------- ----------
False -1
I get this for all users. I am at a loss here and really need this working to stop the animals from beating down my door.

SP1 Rollup 7
I also let it sit all night thinking maybe it was still crawling, mind you I have the performance monitor open watching it and it says it is done in the event logs. Still no dice.

Small update,
The service was not in fact running the crawl when started under the system login, we have since switched it to a domain admins log in and the OWA is now somewhat working.
I will update tomorrow if the crawl completes and people can search to go form there.

As per my knowledge the SP1 Rollup 7 should fix this issue.
One more thing observed after Rollup7 it takes long time to show the results ;-)
Be patient...
- Cheers!

Another small update. After waiting a week to see if the crawl would update or finish I see the files never grew at all.
When opening in OWA I get the following message:
Search results may take a long time to appear because Microsoft Exchange Search is unavailable. Results will not include matches in the e-mail body.

Still no change if anyone has any idea what is going on here I would be grateful.
