I have tried everything to get the search service to start back up. I am using SQL 2k5 for the database and it and WSS are the only things running. I have deleted the old index db and whenever I create a new one I get the following errors in the app log:
Event ID: 10035
Could not import the registry hive into the registry because it does not exist in the configuration database.
Context: Application '87d9d5e2-3923-42bd-b558-cacf986fa704'
Followed by:
