Crawls used to work, but now fail with "The parameter is incorrect" exceptions

Check if the following stack trace is on your component logs (usually located at "${aspire.home}/log/yourconnector/Main/Scanner.log"):

This usually means that the target share was restarted (mounted/unmounted). The underlying connection is cached by the Java Virtual Machine, so a simple restart of Aspire will solve the issue.


Why is does an incremental crawl last as long as a full crawl?

The CIFS Scanner performs incremental crawls based on snapshot files, which are meant to match the exact documents that have been indexed by the connector to the search engine. On an incremental crawl, the connector fully crawls the file system the same way as a full crawl, but it only indexes the modified, new or deleted documents during that crawl.

For a discussion on crawling, see here

Save your content source before creating or editing another one

Failing to save a content source before creating or editing another content source can result in an error.

ERROR [aspire]: Exception received attempting to get execute component command com.searchtechnologies.aspire.services.AspireException: Unable to find the content source

Save the initial content source before creating or working on another.

Statistics do not match with the entries in the physical files

When a full crawl is performed and something wrong happens, like a network issue or permissions removal, the application points out an invalid number of completed documents and documents with errors.

For more information check the bug ASPIRE-1909.

Can the CIFS Connector process archive files?

Yes, The CIFS Connector can process archive files so the individual files in the archive are able to be published, for more info visit Archive files processing
