I deleted the search service databases directly from SQL in our development environment. When I try to delete the service application from Central Admin, it doesn't let me do it. It either says the account doesn't have access or that the search database cannot be opened. How can I clean this mess up? thanks
Here's what I get when I try to delete with Powershell:
PS C:\Users\spadmin> $spapp = Get-SPServiceApplication -Name "Search Service
Application 1"
PS C:\Users\spadmin> Remove-SPServiceApplication $spapp
Confirm
Are you sure you want to perform this action?
