RE: SPS2010 Search woes

2012-01-12 Thread Nigel Hertz

..

What is it they say about some problems having so simple a cause that it always 
gets overlooked?

Thanks to Chris, I logged onto the indexing server to install Fiddler, so I 
could run the tests. I open up IE, and of course it tries to load the intranet, 
as that is what the homepage is set to. Guess what didn't load? I load up IIS 
and lo and behold, the website for the main portal site is stopped, as is the 
application pool for it. The mysites one was fine, as was the CA, which is why 
the user profile database and mysites were indexing correctly.

Of course, everything is working fine on the WFE so I didn't even think of 
looking at IIS. I'm not going to ask why the portal and mysites are set up on 
the IDX server - I'm assuming someone decided to set up load balancing or 
something. But yeah, start up the IIS site and it suddenly starts indexing 
fine. (at least I assume it's fine, as it's now successfully indexed 9831 pages 
and going strong (here as before it had a nice fat zero).

Thanks for the help guys :)

Nigel

Hiya

Have you looked at the IIS logs for the site and filtered by the search? The 
HTTP codes would be interesting... Also this smells like AD policies that route 
things to a proxy server that is blocking what it thinks are invalid HTTP 
requests.

Subject: SPS2010 Search woes

Hi all

Our new SPS2010 environment has been running for about a month and a half now, 
without any major issues - until today. Since this afternoon, search isn't 
working anymore - I get the below error message.

Item not crawled due to one of the following reasons: Preventive crawl rule; 
Specified content source hops/depth exceeded; URL has query string parameter; 
Required protocol handler not found; Preventive robots directive. ( The item 
was deleted because it was either not found or the crawler was denied access to 
it. )

The search crawl account still works (I can log into the site with it and 
browse around). It's not an external site - purely internal. I'm at a complete 
loss as to what might have happened. I've double checked the content source URL 
and there are no query string parameters, it's the root site's url, and I'm 
pretty sure no preventative rules have been set up.

Does anyone have ideas?

Nigel
