The search service is not able to connect to the machine that hosts the administration component

Hi
After uninstalling the binaries, and reinstalling / joining back to the farm, everything seems happy expect search.
When we try and start the Search Service back, it takes us to the Search Application section, and shows this message;
The search service is not able to connect to the machine that hosts the administration component
How can I get search to work again, or get around this error?
I am pretty inexperienced with Search

Hi Tibsy80,
For your issue, it can be caused by the search admin timer job was disabled.
Run below PS command to know the status:
Get-SPTimerJob job-application-server-admin-service | fl
If it returns “IsDisabled: True”, ran below PS command to enable the service:
Enable-SPTimerJob job-application-server-admin-service
Then run below PS command to stop and start the timer and IIS reset:
Net Stop timer
Net start timer
iisreset
Then wait 1-2 min and try browsing to the SSA again.

The search service is not able to connect to the machine that hosts the administration component. Verify that the administration component 'GUID′ in search application 'Search Service Application' is in a good state and try again.

Another post with a well-known title. Believe me, I know. Here's my setup;
- 1 Server 2012 WFE, SharePoint Server 2013, totally up-to-date, including the september 2014 hotfix
- 1 Server 2012 DB, SQL Server 2012
Installed SP 2013 using PowerShell, with the AutoSPinstaller. Worked like a charm. Got everything up and running, with some tweaking here and there to customize it to fit my situation. Now, I can't get the Search Service Application to work. Must have created,
deleted and recreated it at least 30 times. Used both PowerShell scripts, PowerShell line-by-line, Central Admin, heck, I even went so far as to use the configuration wizzard... No luck. I keep on getting the message that search cannot connect to the machine
that hosts the 'administration component'.
In order to avoid answers that suggest all the things I've already tried, here's a summary of the various scenarios I followed:
Tried both a dedicated application pool as well as the SharePoint Web Services Default
Timer job job-application-server-admin-service is running and not showing errors
IIS 8.0 is installed, so is .NET 4.5 (not the known perp of IIS 7.5 and .NET 4.0)
the get-SPEnterpriseSearchServiceInstance -local returns a healthy, online state
the SPEnterpriseSearchQueryAndSiteSettingsServiceInstance is also running
FireWall is disabled; registry has the BackConnectionHostNames modified with the necessary FQDNs
Accounts used to install and / or run the serviceapp all have sufficient rights - tried a dedicated managed account, SP_2013_SearchSvc, the SP admin account, and even the original Farm account; all to no avail, I keep on getting the error message.
Even tried stsadm to start the server search running - NOTHING WORKS!!!
As you might understand, this is driving me nuts. About to miss my second deadline, and no amount of IISresetting is making this go away. Been stuck on this issue for far too long, now (my searching is measured in days and weeks instead of hours, by now).
Whoever helps me solve this - you will have my eternal gratitude, and a nice bottle of Prosecco. Or whatever's your poison. You need to come get it, though. I´m situated in the Netherlands. Hey, you always meant to visit Amsterdam and see for yourself, right?
Thanks, community, for coming to my rescue!

Thanks again - Alas, I've been there. Deleted Search a dozen times, at least, and tried installing it, initially using a PowerShell script (tried several scripts actually, from full-blown total Search Applications with extensive topologies to the most basic
of basics 'please just start without showing me errors'), PowerShell line-by-line to see where things went South, next tried installing through Central Admin (hoping that it was my own stupidity in overlooking things and hoping The System would get it right
for me), and eventually even tried using the config wizzard as a total and utter last resort - Nothing worked.
At first, I found out that removing a Service App needs a *little* bit more work than simply removing it through Central Admin, but by now I can truthfully state that if there's one thing I've become supergood at, it's removing Search Service Applications.Totally.
I will check out the article, though - I realized early on in my SharePoint experience that regardless of what you think you know, there's so much more to find out. I know, that's almost philosophical. That is, my friends, indeed the point I've reached...

Configuration check error: The SMD Agent is not able to connect the Satellite System (J2EE stack)

Hi friends,
Getting the below error in step 10 (configuration check) in managed system configuration.
The SMD Agent is not able to connect the Satellite System (J2EE stack).
Please check the JAVA Connect Parameters provided in the Managed System Setup Wizard for this
System.
java.rmi.RemoteException.P4 Connection failed -
P4AuthorizationException -
com.sap.smdagent.plugins.connectors.p4.exceptions.P4AuthorizationException:
Access is denied to SAP System sid [XYZ/null]: check the connection
credentials.More details about the error in agent 'xyz' log file
(SMDAgentApplication.X.log).; nested exception is:
com.sap.engine.services.security.exceptions.BaseLoginException: Cannot
authenticate the user.
The SMD log file referred to in the log above gives the same information and not anything much useful.
Any idea what could be the reason for the above error?
Thanks,
Arindam

Hi All,
Thaks for your suggestions. I chcked the note 182020, but the issue described in the note is for error byte code adapter installation whcih is not my case. The byte cde adapter intallation has been successful in our solman system All the steps from 1 to 9 are green. Only in step 10, check cniguration I am getting the above error.
The logon test wth the user id in step 3 "Enter system parameters" is successful. The message server port is also correct.
Hi Khaja,
I went to the links as suggestedby you but there its about a ifferent error message "Invalid Response Code: (401) Unauthorized.". I am not getting any such kind of error.
All I am getting is this -
The SMD Agent is not able to connect the Satellite System (J2EE stack).
Please check the JAVA Connect Parameters provided in the Managed System Setup Wizard for this System.

Apex link not able to connect from local machine.

Hi,
Here is the scenario.
I have installed oracle apex 3.2 in my vmware linux machine.
I'm able to connect the link (http://b03apex.domain.com) from my linux(vmware) box but I'm not able to connect from windows local machine.
I tried to ping the ip, from both the ends are working but not sure why I'm not able to connect from windows local machine.
local windows ip: 192.168.1.2
vmware Linux ip address : 192.168.1.3
Do I need to do add any parameters in the Apache logs to connect from windows local machine.?
Need your suggestion.
Thanks, Muhammed.

Can you ping the VM hostname from your Windows console (instead of IP address)?
Have you tried in your Windows browser the following URL (using IP address of the VM instead of the hostname)?
http://192.168.1.3/
Have you checked that your browser is not configured to use a proxy server?
Have you checked your Windows firewall for allowing tcp web traffic to the virtual machine?
Have you checked for the same on on the virtual machine (firewall will be likely be done using <i>iptables</i>).

Reporting services instance not able to connect from SSMS

Hi All,,
I have installed SQL SERVER 2012 on Windows 8.1. I configured report server in native mode.
* Reporting services is in started state
  * SQl server service is in started state
  * Sql serevr agent is in started state
  * SQL browser is in started state
When i tried to connect Report server instance using SSMS i got the below error.
TITLE: Connect to Server
Cannot connect to .
ADDITIONAL INFORMATION:
Unable to connect to the server at . The specified URL might not be valid or there might be a problem with the report server version or configuration. Specify a different URL, or contact your server administrator to verify that the report server runs SQL Server
2008 or later. Additionally, if you are trying to connect to a SharePoint-integrated report server, verify that SharePoint is installed on the server and that the report server uses SharePoint integrated mode. (Microsoft.SqlServer.Management.UI.RSClient)
BUTTONS:
OK
When i connect using http://localhost/reportserver I am getting below error
The permissions granted to user '' are insufficient for performing this operation.
Though i am the administrator
And when i connect using below URL http://localhost/reports
I get Unable to connect to the remote server
Please suggest your input on the problem

Hi Khushi N,
According to your description, you are administrator, when you tried to connect reporting services from SSMS, the error message occurred. When you tried to access report manager with the URL:
http://localhost/reportserver, you were prompted that the permissions granted to user '' are insufficient for performing this operation.
The Reporting Services error rsAccessedDenied occurs when a user does not have permission to perform an action. To troubleshooting this issue, please make sure that you have sufficient permission and the report server name is correct. You can use the reportserver
URL, e.g. HTTP ://<servername>/ReportServer, to log on the reporting service in SSMS.
In addition, by default, we could not access all of the report server properties available in SQL Server Management Studio unless we start Management Studio with administrative privileges. To configure Reporting Services role properties and role assignments
so you do not need to start Management Studio with elevated permissions each time, please refer to the following document:
From the Start menu, click All Programs, click SQL Server 2012, right-click Management Studio, and then click Run as administrator.
Connect to your local Reporting Services server.
In the Security node, click System Roles.
Right-click System Administrator and then click Properties.
In the System Role Properties page, select View report server properties. Select any other properties you want associated with members of the system administrators role.
Click OK.
Close Management Studio
The issue may be caused by the UAC or Internet Explorer security setting, please try to follow this steps:
1. Open the Internet options of the IE and add the report server URL into trusted site in the Security tab.
2. Run the IE as administrator.
For more information about Configuring a Native Mode Report Server for Local Administration, please refer to the following document:

If you have any more questions, please feel free to ask.

Hi everybody, we have some hi8 tapes that we wish to put onto our apple. however the hi8 camcorder no longer works! is there a machine that takes the hi8 tapes and plugs into the apple. help!cheers

hi everybody,
we have some hi8 tapes that we would like to put onto our computer. however the camcorder no longer works. Does anyone know if there is a machine that takes hi8 tapes which we can plug into our apple? or if there is a way of getting around this problem?
cheers

Why not just purchase a used camcorder on eBay? Another option would be to use a Hi8 to DVD Transfer service such as http://www.memoryhub.com/convert/hi8-to-dvd
