Problem Description:
Recently we faced the problem in reference to search and while doing some deployment activities, we need to pause the running crawl. As soon as I clicked on Pause, it switched into “Pausing” mode and we waiting to see the idle status.
Farm details:
SQL SERVER2008-R2
WINDOWS 2008-R2
SHAREPOINT 2010- SP1 (Along with latest patches updated)
What was the status when we started facing issue?
In "Manage Services on Server" (Central Administration):
SharePoint Foundation Search was "Stopped"
SharePoint Server Search is "Stopped"
In "Manage Services Application" (Central Administration):
Search Administration Web Service for Search Service Application was "Started"
Search Service Application was "Started"
In Windows Services MMC
SharePoint Foundation Search V4 is "Disabled"
SharePoint Server Search 14 is "Disabled"
SharePoint Server Search 14 is "Automatic" but status is not "Started"
Attempting to start "SharePoint Server Search 14” via the Services MMC results in the error:
Windows could not start the SharePoint Server Search 14 service on Local Computer.
Error 6: The handle is invalid.
Troubleshooting Done:
1. Restarted the search services – by means of services.msc console
2. Checked the ‘manage services on server’—by means of Central Administration
3. Net stop commands as follows:
stsadm -o osearch -action stop
then
stsadm -o osearch -action start
4. Start-stop PowerShell commands
5. Checked the windows application as well as SP logs
6. Restarted the timer services
net stop SPTimerv4
net start SPTimerv4
Resolution:
I have resolved it by using the following command:
Stop-SPServiceInstance -Identity <ServiceGUID>
Note: Where <ServiceGUID> is the GUID of the service. If you do not know the service GUID, you can retrieve a list of all services in the farm together with their GUIDs by using the Get-SPServiceInstance cmdlet.
Product Applies To:
SharePoint Server 2010
SharePoint Foundation 2010
