    Just checked my search crawl history and it hasn't run in a week.

    Saw another post that said it may be a Symmantec issue, but we're not using Symmantec.

    Thanks,

    Scott

    Curious if you're on at least SP2 or Infrastrucuture Update?  There were major changes to the search infrastucuture delivered in those releases

    http://blog.dafran.ca/post/2013/08/16/SharePoint-2010-Scheduled-Crawls-not-Running.aspx1) Stop the Windows SharePoint Timer Service

    2) Navigate to C:\Documents and Settings\All Users\Application Data\Microsoft\SharePoint\Config
    3) Go into the single folder in there that has a GUID type name.
    4) You see a whole bunch of XML files and a file cache.ini
    5) Copy all the XML files to another folder somewhere (for backup), then delete them but do not delete cache.ini
    6) Edit cache.ini to contain just the number "1" in the file - erase whatever is there and replace with "1"
    7) Restart the Windows SharePoint Timer Service
    8) You should see XML files being regenerated in the folder

    My crawl pauses like that due to backups from time to time. This PS command usually gets it going again for me, just be sure to replace the "Search Service Application" with the name of yours, if it's different

    $ssa = Get-SPEnterpriseSearchServiceApplication “Search Service Application”

    Resume-SPEnterpriseSearchServiceApplication $ssa

    Hello 

    In my case , the below two methods are not working, the powershell commands

    $searchapp = Get-SPEnterpriseSearchServiceApplication EPM_Search
    $searchapp.resume()

    And

    $ssa = Get-SPEnterpriseSearchServiceApplication –Identity EPM_Search
    $ssa | Resume-SPEnterpriseSearchServiceApplication
    Any Idea
