Installed SharePoint Services v3 (SP2, october 2009 cumulative updates, Language Pack), attached to a content database I had previously (all works). Installed Search server 2008 Express (with language pack) on top of WSS and crawl does not work. However it works for newly created web application + database.

Was playing around with accounts, permissions to try get it working. Currently I have WSS_Crawler account with such permissions:

Office Search Server runs with WSS_Crawler account
Config database has read permissions for WSS_Crawler
Content database has read permissions for WSS_Crawler
WSS_Crawler is owner of search database.
Added WSS_Crawler to SQL server browser user group and administrator

Yes, i'v given more permissions than needed, but it doesn't even work with that and i don't know if its permission problem or what.

Crawl log says there is Error in the Site Data Web Service., nothing more. There were known issues with a similar error: Error in the Site Data Web Service. (Value does not fall within the expected range.), but this is not the case as thats an old issue and i hope it has been included in SP2...

Logs are from olders to newest (descending order). They don't appear to be very helpful.
