Suggestions:

1-. Completely remove your aspseek databases from the MySQL Data directory.
2-. Recreate the databases as root and using the script found in the aspseek
sbin directory called
aspseek-mysql-postinstall
3- Check your aspseek.conf and searchf.conf files, did you make
modifications to them? if the answer is yes, then surely your problem is
here. Simply put, Every option that exists in BOTH aspseek.conf AND in
searchd.conf should match, for example, a common problem is having
Utfstorage set to yes in one and commented in the other file. Check this,
but I recommed you use the dist files (ummodified) in order to troubleshoot.

run index, but do so like this:
Go to aspseek.conf and look for the Server directive. I think the example
you'll see there is for localhost something like:

Server http://localhost

remove that line and replace it with:

Include urls.txt

Now, in the aspseek/etc directory create a file called urls.txt with the
following content: (inside the lines)

# =============================
MaxDocsPerServer 200
Server http://www.cnn.com/
# =============================

After you do this run index with no flags (I have found that the less flags
you pass to index the more stable it is)

Once the indexing is finished run searchd like this:

searchd -F

That is for running it on the foreground so you can see if it actually loads
any data.

Once all the previois steps are finished do a search (use s.htm template
with s.cgi script) and do not change/modify the template. Try to use all
original templates while troubleshooting (exept for the Server directive
change I suggested)

All this steps can help you troubleshoot aspseek but if you still have a
problem after doing this I suggest you start looking your MySQL instalation
or OS
