This error is due to insufficient privileges to a normal domain user to log 
events in 
SharePoint servers System Event Log. The SearchResults.aspx page tries to log 
GSA 
queries, results, errors, etc. to System Event Log. It page is not rendered 
because 
the call to log an event fails with "Access is denied".

Possible workarounds:
* Grant all users/groups permission to log to SharePoint Server Event Logs -  a 
policy change
* Use the patched searchresults.aspx file (attached) until an official fix is 
available. Note that the log commands have been removed from this file and it 
will 
not log any errors either. It is just-in-time patch and has not been 
certified/tested 
so you might face issues which might be difficult to track.

-changed the logging from 'event logging' to 'file based logs' due to the 
reason 
above.
