Ok, this worked, along with Markus's suggestion..
 
adduser aspseek
passwd aspseek

then enter password for the new created user aspseek and then
su - aspseek
cd /usr/local/aspseek/sbin/
./searcd -D -R
But now I get this error:
Error in query:
 
So I checked the log and I see this:

Starting search daemon from ASPSeek v.1.2.8
Error 98 in bind(): Address already in use
Any Ideas on what it is talking about?

Thanks
Richard.

in aspseek.conf and search.conf you set db-connection, there you set user, password, database name and server
for the database connection.
have you ran aspseek-mysql-postintall.in in misc-dir? this script creates all the needed databases and tables for
aspseek. also an user apseek12 with password apsseek12. all that stuff is also written in conf/db.conf (this files
will be inclueded by aspseek.conf and index.conf). important is that the user rights are "granted" for the database.
 
    "grant all privileges on {database}.* to {user}@localhost identified by {password}"
 
means that the following line is executet:
 
    "grant all privileges on aspseek12.* to aspseek12@localhost identified by aspseek12"
    "go"
    "flush privileges"

Cool, that worked, but when I looked at the log file I see this:
 
ERROR: Can't connect to database. Access denied for user: 'first@localhost' (Using password: NO)
What can I do about that one?

Thanks
Richard.

index and searchd should run as "normal" user with uid>100  not as root.
so when you use another user (eg. your normal useraccount or your www-user),
then searchd should work...

Markus, I am having a problem with this error...
 
An error occured!

Can not connect to search daemon

 
I did search the archives and found this response YOU had...
 
normally you start searchd with
 
    searchd -D -R
 
option -D means start as daemon (in background), -R means restart if searchd stopss..
normally searchd should run in background as service so it waits to answer requests
from s.cgi.
in case that you get the error message, try to look whether searchd is running
 
    ps -ef |grep searchd
 
if not, that's the problem. maybe update to the latest aspseek version.
as i said in an older version (not sure anymore which it was), searchd crashed
on my box very often...
 
When  I try to run searcd -D -R I get this:
root@azariah [/usr/local/aspseek/sbin]# ./searchd -D -R
Don't run ./searchd with privileged user/group ID (UID < 11, GID < 11)
root@azariah [/usr/local/aspseek/sbin]#
 
I've tried to just type:
searchd -D -R
in Shell but it says command searchd not found
so I do it this way:
./searchd -D -R
that is when I get the above error.
 
What do I need to do to fix this?
Thank you, so much for any assistance you may be!!
Chantelle
