MOSS Search Error: The system cannot find the path specified. (Exception from HRESULT: 0x80070003)

This error can show up in the error logs for your content source. From what I can tell, it is related to a corruption in the index. To correct this, I tried to reset the search index and recieved the following error: The application is unable to accept further updates because the last attempt to persist the state failed.
To fix this, you will need to restart the search service and reconfigure the search. For step by step instructions, check out Prashanth Palakollu's blog: http://ppalakollu.blogspot.com/2008/01/resetting-search-index-error.html

After doing this, the original error did not reoccur and search results began flowing again.
