I have a Howto company Blog site that i post to for my clients to access for help. For some reason it has stopped letting anyone search on it. I can search for Mysites or users.
But when you drop down the tab to search: This Site: "blog site name" you get the following reply:
No results matching your search were found. Check your spelling. Are the words in your query spelled correctly? Try using synonyms. Maybe what you're looking for uses slightly different words. Make your search more general. Try more general terms in place of specific ones. Try your search in a different scope. Different scopes can have different results.
I have tried the following command: from the Index server
1.net stop osearch 2.net start osearch 3.iisreset /noforce But still not able to search a local blog site I can only search for users and Sites.
please help

UPDATE!
This was a DNS ISSUE. I had to fix the Alias. went to: Central Administration > Operations > Alternate Access Mappings and Added or Edit Public URLS.
Also our DNS Entry was changed by someone in our Network Admins Group. Via - DNS on our domain server too. Also added the Absolute Paths for and working now.
