http://sharepoint2010shyju.blogspot.com/2010/12/creating-custom-timer-job.html?showComment=1296184785817#c3173481420652015259

please refer this link. I must say thanks to the author Mohan for his great post.

the logic is

1. use the properties like below in ur timer job class

[Persisted()]
public string MyCustomProperty;

2. assign the url of the web (site/subsite..whatever) to the property in feature activated event

SPWeb webN = properties.Feature.Parent as SPWeb;
taskLoggerJob.MyCustomProperty = webN.ServerRelativeUrl;

Note:- my scope is web

3. Use the property in Execute method

SPSite _siteCol = new SPSite(this.WebApplication.Sites[0].Url);
SPWeb _site = _siteCol.AllWebs[MyCustomProperty]; //

Note:- I have one site collection, (u can refer ur site collection using contentdbId)

:-), thats it...Happy coding

SharePoint Foundation + Search Server 2010

This blog saved my day. Once you install the SSE, u have to configure it in Central Admin site

1. Go to Central Admin as login as the farm Administrator

2. Go to Application Management tab

3. Select SharePoint Web Application Management heading | Content databases

4. Ensure your web application is the one selected

5. Select your content database name

6. Under Search Server – select your server (if your search server drop down is disabled please follow the additional steps below)

7. Go to 12 hive folder and open stsadm.exe utility

8. Run the following command psconfig.exe -cmd services -install

9. Then run stsadm -o spsearch -action start (specify the farm account if required)
