Workspaces Cannot Be Indexed As Web Site Content Source (287368)



The information in this article applies to:

  • Microsoft SharePoint Portal Server 2001

This article was previously published under Q287368

SUMMARY

Because SharePoint Portal Server workspaces are accessed by using a URL, you can create a Web site content source for a workspace URL. However, when you perform an index build, only one document in the remote workspace is indexed, regardless of the content source settings.

MORE INFORMATION

This behavior is by design. Web site and SharePoint Portal Server content sources use a Hypertext Transfer Protocol (HTTP) prefix; however, these content sources are not indexed the same way. You must configure remote workspaces as SharePoint Portal Server content sources to successfully index them.
