No search service is available error on SharePoint 2010
We've a SharePoint 2010 site running on SharePoint 2013 server. The site works fine in 2013 except for the search service.
I get an error when I tried to enter a keyword and search
"Your search cannot be completed because of no search service is available. Contact your administrator for more information"
I've checked the following
Crawling & search service application - Up & running
Index component is active
Search topology - all OK
SharePoint server enterprise search and site search (Manage web application features) = Active
Search crawling account has full access to the web application
Did a cache.ini
reset and tried to run the
psconfig.exe -cmd services -install
and
stsadm -o spsearch -action start
I get an error
" A search service instance could not be found on server in the farm"
Is there any way to get the search working?
