I did a search for the search module for drupal 6 and got various reasons why the search module does not work. One of the reasons could be down to my hosting company. even though I have put up some files for my site to search the nodes, it still doesnt display it. it doesnt show any errors to why it doesnt show the results. but I did upload search modules like Multisite search it then came up with access denied to the database.
when I try to run the the cron service manually I get this error: warning: set_time_limit() has been disabled for security reasons in 'location of database'
and when that happens, the search indexing returns to 0 even though there is 1 file to be indexed.
I am really confused to how to fix this?

i'm not sure what you mean when you say "cron service manually" but afaik search depend on cron-- until you get it working the content won't be indexed and therefore won't be searchable. did you try manually invoking the cron.php file by typing the address directly into the browser? If that works, you might be able to use http://drupal.org/project/poormanscron to get it working.

sorry, what I meant to say
sorry, what I meant to say was I did the cron service manually by going to:admin/reports/status and under Cron maintenance tasks click run cron manually.
Thanks for the poormanscron which did work and indexed. however, even when I do try to search for something now it still doesnt pick up anything.
I also tried the cron.php at the end of my website and it just showed a blank page when I entered it.
the search module is enabled. and I cant seem to think what I have left out.
I did a test to see if I
I did a test to see if I just create a normal page within create create content and search for it. apparently, it does work and you can see the search file. but when you create a flash upload with the flash node it doesnt seem to pick it up >_<
it feels like the search isnt picking up something very specific with the flash node. was the flash node even design to be used for searching flash files?
