In the event veiwer I get the following
The Windows Search Service has failed to created the new system catalog. Internal error <7,0x80070002>
The Windows Search service terminated with service-specific error 2147749155 (0x80040D23)
Running XP64
Unfortunately that disk died shortly afterwards and the index was lost! Having installed a new disk and re-creating the necessary directory structure (e.g. D:\Search\Search\Data\Applications) I get the error specified by the previous poster.
I've also attempted to change the registry values SetupCompletedSuccessfully and MustRecover at HKEY_LOCAL_MACHINE\SOFTWARE\Microsoft\Windows Search, as recommended by some feedback on various newsgroups to no avail!
Any ideas?
Cheers,
Dean
Dean, do you have config files in that folder?
Search\Config\msscolmn.txt
Search\Data\Config\gathrprm.txt
Search\Data\Config\schema.txt
Also you don't have to recreate anything under Application, service should do it automatically given SetupCompletedSuccessfully is set to 0.
Try to reset your WDS to it's default settings from WDS' control panel. If you are on Vista, it's under the Indexing Options. See if that takes care of the system catalog generation issue.
Also make sure that you downloaded the latest WDS 3.0 from http://support.microsoft.com/?kbid=917013.
Another thing that you want to try is to stop the service by opening up a command prompt (please run elevated if you're on Vista) and stop the service by typing "net stop wsearch". Delete your index files "%AllUsersProfile%\Application Data\Microsoft\Search\Data\Applications\Windows" on XP or "%programdata%\microsoft\search\Data\Applications\Windows" if you're on Vista. Then go to the advance options of WDS/Indexing Options and rebuild your index. This will bring WDS/Vista Search back to it's default setting.
Let me know if that fix the problem.

The windows search service failed to start right off the bat. At the end of the installation, I get an a error saying it can't be installed on this system, and to check the kb917013.log.
The log says "wsearch service failed to start, check application/system event log for details".
The event viewer gives me the two errors I posted initially.
I have no available options or tabs in the WDS control panel. It just says indexing is not running.
Are you running SP1? if you don't have that, please install SP1 while I'm trying to duplicate your problem on this side by installing WDS on non SP1 XP. Also, you did try to install the same WDS language as your OS, correct? Have you try to uninstall and install this again?
I'll post back when I find anything.

Try to rebuild the index when you have WDS installed. If that doesn't solve it the do these steps:
Let me know if this works for you.

David,
I have a dual boot configuration.
XP32 on C: partition and XP64 on D: partition
I realized I had WDS version 2.6.5 installed in 32 bit on the c:
Thinking there might be a conflict, I logged in to it to unistall it and got an error message " The updated could not be removed because newer updates are installed. Please remove the newer updates first."
This was attempted after removing 3.0 on the 64 bit op.
I cant get it installed as well.
x64 sp1 brand new install.

Anyone has any idea why it is not finding the keys?
If you don't have those config files then WDS doesn't seem to be unable to successfully rebuild any indices...

Dean
Does your solution above apply to me? When I get "The specified module could not be found." this is a concern to me. Do I need to reinstall Vista? If your fix pertains to this situation, how can I change the reg key ownership? Thanks.
