Almost a day I spent trying to setup a search engine of GX WebManager 9.5.2 Community edition on my Windows XP local environment. The solution is easy.
As you can see in this topic there is no need to setup a service and change its configuration files. Steps to do:
1. Find C:\GXWebManager\webmanager-searchengine\conf\credential.xml file and change <credential pattern=".*localhost.*" type="postform" username="gxsearch" password="engine"> line to <credential pattern=".*localhost.*" type="postform" username="administrator" password="adminadmin"> or you can create gxsearch user with password engine and grant him administrator rights
2. Go to http://localhost:8080/web/setup and on Search Tools tab specify:
URL: http://localhost:8080/web/webmanager?id=39016
Host: localhost,127.0.0.1
Depth: Infinity
Hit Index button and wait. After indexation is finish you can see the status in Server status area.

Also make sure you grab the new search engine documentation. I also wrote about new search engine improvements on my GX blog: http://www.gxdeveloperweb.com/Blogs/Martin-van-Mierloo/WebManager-search-quest-3.htm
