Setup Sharepoint Search (v 1.0)
- Almuth Boehme [Communardo]
This guide is part of the Sharepoint Installer page
Setup Search
This installs the integrated search functionality between SharePoint and Confluence by installing a SharePoint feature to your farm.
Note that this feature requires Microsoft Office SharePoint Server (MOSS) and will not install for Windows SharePoint Services (WSSv3).
To setup the integrated search functionality you need to execute Setup_Search.exe.
The forms are similar to installing the web parts as shown above. The primary difference is the deployment targets screen which has all web applications selected. There is nothing for you to change, so just click Next to continue.

This last page of the install shows links for configuring search. If you have My Sites, the installer is unable to differentiate them from a Shared Service Provider used for search. Therefore you may see multiple links. You only need to click the link for your Shared Service Provider used for search. From there you can define how to integrate SharePoint search with Confluence search. See SharePoint Search Configuration for more details.
Note that it may take a bit of time for the configuration screen to appear when you click these links because the web sites are being restarted.
Note that this page is not shown during an Upgrade.
