General
Why is does an incremental crawl last as long as a full crawl?
The Socialcast Connector 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 Socialcast content 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
The connector fails with 'unable to find valid certification path to requested target'.
Example exception is: Error occured during linear scan execution: sun.security.validator.ValidatorException: PKIX path building failed: sun.security.provider.certpath.SunCertPathBuilderException: unable to find valid certification path to requested target
This error occurs because Aspire running on JRE instead of JDK. We need Aspire to run on JDK. If you have installed JDK, please check JAVA_HOME and PATH variables and make sure you are running Aspire on JDK.
