Find in Files Error

Post by aehlert » Wed Oct 31, 2012 11:52 am

I just tried to start the 'Find in Files' option on a repository, and I recieved the following error:

An error occurred updating the Find in Files for some of the repositories. The request failed with HTTP status 404: Not Found.

I tried to start it up on another repository and recieved the same message. Any ideas where I can start to look to see why it won't start?

Look in C:\Windows\Temp\SGVaultIndex on the Vault Server machine for the vaultindexservice.txt log file.

Vault 6.0 uses plugins for Shadow Folder, Notification and Index (Find in Files) services. In order for these features to work, the Vault Server needs to be able to connect to the plugin service and the plugin needs to be able to connect back to the Vault Server.

Plugin URLs are stored in the Vault database. Depending on your IIS/network configuration, the plugin URLs created by the Vault Server installer may or may not be valid.

I can send you a detailed troubleshooting guide that tells how to determine the correct plugin URL.

Linda.
I have the same problem. There is no vaultindexservice.txt file under c:\windows\temp\sgvault.

In the that folder there is the sgvault.log file. There's an error message which likely points to the problem.

An error occurred updating the Find in Files on http://127.0.0.1/VaultIndexService/Vaul ... rvice.asmx

I guess I need to change one or more of those plugin settings to change 127.0.0.1 to the actual vault URL. I didn't install under the default web site. That's likely why?
I just read other forum answers searching for vault plugin url and found that you now have a UI for this in 6.1.

I set the correct url in the UI but now I have these errors in the vault index log

Code: Select all

5/4/2013 7:13:07 PM <generic>: Could not contact the server at http://127.0.0.1/VaultService for repository id 3: The server cannot be contacted or uses a protocol that is not supported by this client. Unable to connect to http://127.0.0.1/VaultService.  No server was found at the specified URL.  Please verify your network settings using the Options dialog under the Tools menu in the Vault GUI Client.  Web Exception: The request failed with HTTP status 404: Not Found.
5/4/2013 7:13:11 PM <generic>: [System.Net.WebException: The request failed with HTTP status 404: Not Found.
OK, so now I found the config file under VaultService\VaultIndexService and changed the URL there as well.
So it's now working.
