Clients cannot search new content on 10.6 server

10.6.6 server
10.5+  & 10.6+ clients connect via AFP to sharepoints
Clients complained that they cannot find files on server.
I rebuilt all spotlight indexes on all clients macs and on all volumes on the server
Clients were happy and were able to quickly search server....
Approx. 4 days later clients complained again that they cannot find files on server.
Asked manager for specifics and he found that only new files added to the server after the spotlight index rebuild cannot be found.
Can someone help.
Thank you.

Yes - these permissions are needed for your share point (according to Apple Server Support):
I hope this helps you..pgonzalez
here are the recommended permissions for the new share at the root level of the volume:
ACL:
<Spotlight> Allow Custom (ghosted)
<yourgroupname> Allow Read & Write
<Everyone> Deny Read
POSIX:
root  Read & Write
admin  Read & Write
Others  Read only

  • Cannot search file content on Word document with embedded Excel table

    Cannot search file content on Word document with embedded Excel table. I have Windows 8.1 64-bit and Office 2010 Professional. Only phrases from within Excel tables are not searchable. I have many Word documents with embedded Excel table.
    I use it for my invoices. Those invoices are converted to pdf to be sent via mail. Searching the same phrases in related pdf files Works fine. And yes, folders are indexed, searching service is active......... For example I can find all invoices that have
    specific address or name, which is located in word document, but cannot find invoices with specific item name or price, being that information is in embedded Excel table. (not linked, embedded). I thought that is a question for Windows forum, but guys directed
    me here on Office forum. To clarify, I do not use Ctrl+F inside some document, but Windows Search in my folders. Probably the same happens in Office 2013.
    Thank you.

    Hi, I have a lot of Word documents (invoices, offers). Main part of those documents is embedded Excel file because it is easier to do mathematics in Excel than in Word. There are columns with description, unit price, quantity, taxes... Now, I need
    to find who bought HP switch 2530-24G last year. I open folder with last year invoices and search "2530". Cannot find any. But if that document was converted to pdf for mail, than I can find that phrase. Windows search does not work for content if the content
    is in embedded file.

  • Leopard Clients cannot search a Shared Volume

    Clients are 10.5.1, conntecting to a Leopard server 10.5.1
    when the clients try to search for a file by contents or name, nothing is every returned, it does not seem to try (no delay or spinner)
    the results are the same if they click into the server first (to get the shared point name in the top of the search window) or if they open any other finder window
    searches of the local volume works perfectly
    Filesharing is working as intended on all clients, they have read and write on the files in question.
    its just that all searches return no results
    any ideas?

    Your server may be hanging while creating the Spotlight index for the share point. Look in the console.log file (open Console on the server from the Utilities folder). If one of the mdworker processes is having trouble, you'll see Spotlight error messages. Also look in Activity Monitor (also in Utilties) on the server to see if any process that starts with md (like mds, mdworker, etc.) is using a significant portion of CPU time (20% or more, sustained).
    It's possible that waiting will alleviate the problem, as Spotlight finishes the index. Or you may want to try this:
    1. Create a new share point (preferably on a different server volume, if possible), and set all permissions and turn on Spotlight search while the new share point is empty.
    2. Copy a few folders from the troublesome share point to the new one, and attempt searching from a client.
    3. If this works, continue copying or moving items from the old share to the new one. If you encounter problems, the last items moved or copied were probably troublesome. If you don't have trouble, then continue moving/copying items until the original share point is empty (or contains the same contents). Later you can delete the original share if you're happy about the status of the new one.
    And for VPN access to the server behind a NAT/PAT device (such as a DSL gateway), your server's firewall needs to accept any PPTP or L2TP and IKE data from the "any" network; then forward those ports from your gateway to the server's local address via Port Address Translation (PAT):
    * Most gateways ("routers", "cable modems", etc.) refer to PAT by one of these names: Port Forwarding, NAT Pinholes, or Port Address Translation. Some devices hide these settings in the Advanced, Security, or Firewall settings.
    * Let's say that your public IP address is 17.30.31.7 and that your server behind the NAT device is at 192.168.1.3. You want to forward incoming requests from 17.30.31.7 to 192.168.1.3 for the following TCP and UDP ports:
    UDP Port 500 (IKE)
    UDP Port 1701 (L2TP over UDP)
    TCP Port 1723 (PPTP)
    UDP 4500 (IKE NAT Traversal)

  • OS 10.4 clients cannot access Shared Mac folder on W2k Server - URGENT

    We have a network of about 25 computers, 10 or so of them are Mac OS 10.4, the rest are Win XP Pro PCs. We have a server dedicated to file sharing. We basically have one main shared folder called "FILES". This is shared for PCs and Macs. Recently after a restart of the server (for regular maintenance), the Macs could not see the shared Mac volume (FILES), PCs could access the share without a problem. After a few minutes (15 or so) the Macs could all of a sudden see the share and
    everything was fine.
    However, we just restarted the server again and we're having the same issue again. The difference is, this time, after waiting for a few hours, the Macs still cannot see the Mac Share. The macs connect to the server via TCP/IP, the users use their usernames and passwords and can connect to the server, however, the only volume they see is the Micrsoft UAM volume.
    When we created a different folder and shared it (through MMC), the Macs could see and access that one.
    We get an Event ID 12061 in the System Event Log as the user tries to connect to the share. I found a Microsoft KB article, but no solution to the problem was given. http://support.microsoft.com/kb/q136300/
    Here are some things I have tried to remedy the issue, please keep in mind we cannot change the name of the share (FILES) becuase of the thousands of file mappings in quark, etc.:
    Again Restarted Server
    Stopped Sharing the folder, then reshared it
    Stopped sharing the folder
    Uninstalled / Reinstalled Appletalk Protocol from network adapter
    Uninstalled / Reinstalled File Services for Macintosh [Restarted]
    Uninstalled / Reinstalled Appletalk Protocol from network adapter again [Restarted]
    Reshared the folder
    Created a new mac share called TEST (Macs could see and access)
    Moved data from Files to TEST, now Macs could not see TEST
    Moved data back to FILES
    Created a folder called FILES2, moved data from FILES to FILES2
    Stopped sharing FILES (PC and Mac), renamed FILES to FILES1
    Renamed FILES2 to FILES (Macs could not see volume)
    It seems as though the problem is with an individual file or two, which sort of corresponds the what Microsoft has written regarding the error.
    Has anyone had any experience with this issue? Any insight or solution to this issue is greatly appreciated.
    Thank you!

    It's very important to be as specific as possible when discussion network service access. In your question, it sounds like you want the macs to attach to FILES using SMB/CIFS, but you also call it a Mac share, so it's not obvious if you mean an AFP share or just a share for Macs to use.
    You should know that the Macs can connect to either AFP or SMB volumes, and they can browse for SMB over TCP/IP and AFP over both TCP/IP and Appletalk (Appletalk must be turned on and browsing active in Directory Access).
    Connecting via SMB to a volume hosted on Windows2K or higher server will fail with the default settings, which require secure connections not supported by Mac OS X (because Samba doesn't support it). To overcome that problem, see this article:
    http://www.macosxhints.com/article.php?story=20030922153448490&query=-5000
    (scroll down to one of the top-level replies, which explains in detail how to deactivate secure connections)
    You might also be able to improve reliability by editing the SMB settings in Directory Access and setting a WINS server, but it depends on your network.

  • New 2012 R2 domain - xp clients cannot join or print

    I just migrated a 2003  domain to 2012 R2.   Things were working ok & then XP clients became AD stupid.
    Steps I took:
    Added a VM 2012 R2 DC to the domain.  Server had DNS installed.  Ran dcdiag & bpa and resolved any issues. 
    About a week later I moved all roles over to the VM DC.
    Tore down one of the NT2003 DCs (not VM) and rebuit it as a 2012 R2 DC w/DNS.  Ran dcdiag & bpa and resolved any issues.   Had problems with DNS scavenging removing some static records.  readded records & made sure the  "Delete
    record when it becomes stale" was unchecked on all static records (all fwd & rev zones).
    Moved all roles from the VM DC to the hardware DC.
    After a week I tore down the 2nd (& last) nt2003 DC (not VM) and rebuilt it as a 2012 R2 DC w/DNS.  Ran dcdiag/bpa and fixed any issues.  Also ran it on the other DCs.
    Removed the VM 2012 R2 DC from the domain (demote, remove features, remove from domain, power off, delete VM).
    Everything seems to be working fine.  dcdiags look clean, event logs seem good.
    Bump forest/domain to 2012 R2 native.
    Then, a few days later,  it goes bad.  I (after hours) install all accumulated updates on both DCs.  Reboot both.
    Next AM a user calls.  Her thin client cannot connect to the terminal services server.  DNS has deleted its dns record, even though the delete when stale was unchecked.  :|  So I readd the static record and turn off scavenging. 
    Problem solved.
    Next call s from a XP user (we have XP, Win 7, and thin clients).  She cannot print.  Printers show "cannot connect".  Try various things to no avail.  Check Win 7 boxes and they're working fine & printers are connected. 
    Note that the XP & Win7 boxes all pull their DHCP address from the same dhcp server/scope.
    Review error logs and run dcdiag.  There are several somewhat esoteric errors.  After several hours or tail chasing I decide to take a more scorched earth tack.  I demote the 2nd DC and remove AD & DNS from it. After demotion and role
    removal I check AD and it still shows the DC.  I remove the now just a server from the domain.  Clean up DNS & AD removing all traces.  This takes a while as I have to run variuos scripts (tahnk you google) to ensure AD is clean.
    Run dcdiag and resolve issues.  Even a detailed dcdiag comes out clean.  Replication tests show the old server is now forgotten.
    Check XP boxes and they still show printers as "cannot connect".
    Remove a XP PC from the domain.  Try to rejoin and I get a error.  Rename it and still get the error.  I can ping, nslookup, etc and they return the correct IP.
    I've tried the simple change the join a domain in system properties.  That gives a somewht non descript error.  The network identification wizard seemed to find the domain but didn't work.  As it was trying to find the PC in AD, I went ahead
    and added it via AD users& Computer console.  Run the wizard and it tells me it found the record in AD.  It then says "a domain controller for the domain [ourdomain] could not be contacted."  !?  Yet the prior screen it told
    me it had found the record for the PC on the DC.
    nslookup for ourdomain.local as well as dcname.ourdomain.local resolve correctly.  Tried chenging the PC to static - no change.  Rename the old win 2012 R2 dc (now just a server outside the domain), reboot, and the try to rejoin the domain. 
    Works flawlessly.
    BTW - We're running tcpip w/o netbios over tcpip.
    So basically my XP boxes cannot use AD printers and cannot join the domain.  IDK if they're picking up gp updates (I'll check in the AM), but I suspect they're not.
    Short of buying a truckload of Win 7 licenses and reloading OSs, what can I do to fix this?
    Details on the XP box error (fyi - I did a record to record comparison to a Win 2008 domain's SRV records and they look identical (except, fo course, the domain& server names)) :
    The domain name [ourdomain] might be a NetBIOS domain name.  If this is the case, verify that the domain name is properly registered with WINS.
    If you are certain that the name is not a NetBIOS domain name, then the following information can help you troubleshoot your DNS configuration.
    The following error occurred when DNS was queried for the service location (SRV) resource record used to locate a domain controller for domain [ourdomain]:
    The error was: "DNS name does not exist."
    (error code 0x0000232B RCODE_NAME_ERROR)
    The query was for the SRV record for _ldap._tcp.dc._msdcs.[ourdomain]
    Common causes of this error include the following:
    - The DNS SRV record is not registered in DNS.
    - One or more of the following zones do not include delegation to its child zone:
    [ourdomain]
    . (the root zone)

  • Cannot search PDF file contents - Windows 7 32 bit - Adobe Acrobat X

    Hello,
    If this is in the wrong forum please move it.
    I work in an enterprise environment and our systems are having trouble searching file contents in Windows Explorer using Acrobat X and Windows 7 32 bit. The files are on a mapped network location.
    After removing all adobe products from a test machine and reinstalling the Acrobat 10.0.0 software the windows explorer search function seems to work locally but once I install Acrobat 10.1.anything update, it will fail. It never worked on a networked location.
    I have also tried installing Adobe Acrobat 11.0.00 after removing 10.0. Then I made sure my indexing settings were setup to index files and contents and made sure the .pdf extension was selected under file types.
    I then created a mapped drive to the network location, and setup my indexing to the folder on that network drive. I was able to do this by installing this Microsoft Add-in that allows use of UNC paths in the indexing.
    http://www.microsoft.com/en-us/download/confirmation.aspx?id=3383
    Once I set this up, I rebuilt my index and restarted the computer. This is where it gets weird. I can now search the contents of PDF files in this indexed network location, but only by one letter. Searching "c type:pdf" will produce results, but "co type:pdf" will not. I know for sure some of the documents have the work Comment in there so this should should up.
    Does anyone have experience getting this to work correctly with the latest versions of Adobe Acrobat X or XI and Windows 7 32 bit? It would be greatly appreciated.
    Thank you.

    I will never understand why but in the end I rebuilt my 32 bit dell laptop from scratch and the pdf files can now be searched.
    I cannot search them on a mapped drive as I was able to with Windows XP because now they must be indexed and windows 7 will seems not to allow a mapped location to be indexed which must be done to make the pdf files searchable so I have had to move the files to the local drive.
    My Windows 7 64 bit systems can search the mapped drives just fine without needing to be indexed. Again I will never understand why this works and the 32 bit machine does not.

    Content is added on a friday, but we currently have titles missing on the classic platform (old software) which haven't been added yet and I hope they don't try adding these tomorrow as the new content
    response from the vision guys and they’ve confirmed that there 10 more assets (movies) which were not listed in the HD Category on Classic, but it does appear as if there are 20 odd titles missing from the Classic platform. We will add the missing assets (movies) into the category and will investigate the titles which are missing from the platform.

  • New Win8 client cannot log on to WinServer2008 domain

    I have a server running Windows Server 2008 hosting a domain with a small number of client PCs running various versions of Windows up to Windows 7. A router provides access to the internet as well as DNS and pseudo-static IP address assignment by DHCP (based
    on MAC address). This setup has been working perfectly for several years and still does work on all existing PCs.
    However, I have just bought a laptop running Windows 8.1 Professional (Update 1). I installed the
    Windows 8 update on the server. When I first logged into the new Win8 laptop as a domain user, it took the expected long time to load the roaming profile but then gave the error:
    The Group Policy Client service failed the sign-in.
    The universal unique identifier (UUID) type is not supported
    Despite that, everything seemed OK including a full local copy of the roaming profile, until I logged out and then tried to log back in.
    If I log back in as the same domain user, the roaming profile doesn't load and I eventually see "User Profile Service: There was a problem with your roaming profile. You've been signed in with your previously saved local profile. Please see the
    event log for details or contact your administrator".
    If I try to log in as another domain user, I immediately see "There are currently no logon servers available to service the logon request" and I can't log in.
    I've tried pinging between the machines and everything is OK, including DNS. The server does have a working DNS server but it is redundant since DNS is handled by the router. I've read elsewhere that DNS could be the cause but everything seems OK with DNS.
    Any suggestions would be greatly appreciated.

    Active Directory uses DNS as its domain controller location mechanism and leverages the namespace design of DNS in the design of Active Directory domain names. As a result, DNS is positioned within the discoverability and logical structure components of
    Active Directory technology components.
    And if you are using the routers DNS, then your computers won't find Active Directory easily and they will take long time.

  • Software Update Server, clients report "no new software available"

    I have been running Software Update Service on my 10.5.8 (9L30) Xserve for a short time without any problems, updating about twenty 10.5.8 clients on the local network.
    Recently the clients started reporting "no new software available" when running software update (GUI or command line), but updates were available on the Xserve:
    # defaults write com.apple.SoftwareUpdate CatalogURL http://myserve.mydomain:8088/
    # defaults write /Library/Preferences/com.apple.SoftwareUpdate CatalogURL http://myserve.mydomain:8088/
    # softwareupdate --list
    Software Update Tool
    Copyright 2002-2007 Apple
    No new software available.
    When pointing the clients back to apple for updates, the update is available:
    # defaults delete /Library/Preferences/com.apple.SoftwareUpdate CatalogURL
    # softwareupdate --list
    Software Update Tool
    Copyright 2002-2007 Apple
    Software Update found the following new or updated software:
    * iTunesX-9.0.1
    iTunes (9.0.1), 87690K [recommended]
    Clients can connect to port 8080 on the server, and the iTunes update has been downloaded to the server and is visible on the file system:
    # "curl -s http://myserve.mydomain:8088/index.sucatalog iTunesX.tar
    http://myserve:8088/content/downloads/05/47/061-7190/xP7dtwZz6YGXLHFHcxVT7CnV6mR dq6RnVY/iTunesX.tar"
    # ls -l /usr/share/swupd/html/content/downloads/05/47/061-7190/xP7dtwZz6YGXLHFHcxVT7CnV 6mRdq6RnVY/iTunesX.tar

    The /var/root/Library/Caches/com.apple.SoftwareUpdate/Cache.db is extremely sparse after running the software update against the local Xserve:
    # rm /var/root/Library/Caches/com.apple.SoftwareUpdate/Cache.db
    # softwareupdate --list
    # strings /var/root/Library/Caches/com.apple.SoftwareUpdate/Cache.db | tail

    indexsqliteautoindex_cfurl_cache_response_2cfurl_cacheresponse
    None of the XML data seen in the Cache.db file after running against Apple's update server is present.
    Note, I did multi-home this server fairly recently to add an internal website on a different IP/URL, but I don't think that should have effected the SUS service, which is still available at the original IP/port. I am a Unix/Linux admin by training, so some of the OS X idiosyncrasies are still new to me, and I may not be aware of certain tools/commands that may be helpful in diagnosing this problem.
    Thanks for your help in advance,

    Apologies for responding to my own post, but I believe I have found the issue and am replying with a solution for the benefit of others.
    Upon reviewing my original post, I noticed that the curl request for the index.sucatalog was returning XML contents with URLs defined with only the hostname, not the FQDN, even though the CatalogURL was specified with a FQDN.
    # curl -s http://myhostname.mydomain:8088/index.sucatalog | grep iTunesX.tar
    <string>http://myhostname:8088/content/downloads/05/47/061-7190/xP7dtwZz6YGXLHFHcxVT7CnV 6mRdq6RnVY/iTunesX.tar</string>
    This change in URL may have arisen when multi-homing my Xserve for some reason. In my case, specifying the search domain field on the clients seems to have fixed the problem as the simple hostname in the URLs are now able to resolve without the domain.

  • Either there is no default mail client of the current mail client cannot fulfill the messaging request-----error Outlook 2010

    I've tried EVERYTHING suggested in this link (http://blog.timolthof.com/outlook-no-default-mail-client-error/) and everything google and bing and still this message keeps popping up.  Now when I do a windows search for email, I'm not able to view
    the email due to this message.
    For the record, I am running W7 Ultimate x64 and connected via Excange Server.  I do have another system that is running Office 2010 with none of these problems so I don't know if it's related to Exchange though the searches I've done don't allude
    to that.
    What's up?

    Hi,
    I understand that when you tried to open Outlook 2010 beta on the Windows 7 64-bit computer, you encountered the following error:
    "Either there is not default mail client of the current mail client cannot fulfill the messaging request. Please run Microsoft Outlook and
    set it as the default mail client."
    You have checked the settings under the registry subkey: HKEY_LOCAL_MACHINE\SOFTWARE\Wow6432Node\Clients\Mail\Microsoft Outlook
    I understand the inconvenience you have encountered and appreciate the time and effort you spent on this issue. Please be assured that I
    will try my best to help you.
    Now let’s troubleshoot the issue by the suggestions below. Please check the results after each suggestion until the problem is resolved.
    Suggestion 1: manually set Outlook 2010 as the default e-mail client on Windows 7:
    ===================
    1.      
    Click Start.
    2.      
    Type "default programs" in the
    Search box.
    3.      
    Click Default Programs under
    Programs in the search results.
    4.      
    Now click Set your default programs.
    5.      
    Highlight Microsoft Outlook on the left.
    6.      
    Click Set this program as default.
    7.      
    Click OK.
    Suggestion 2: Start the Outlook program in safe mode
    ==============
    1.      
    Click Start, point to All Programs, and then point to
    Microsoft Office.
    2.      
     Press and hold the CTRL key, and then click the Outlook program you want to start.
    If the problem does not occur in the safe mode, this issue might be related to some third-party add-ins in the Outlook program, we can try
    to disable them. Normally, you could do the following to disable the conflict add-ins in your Outlook program:
    Disable add-ins
    Click
    File menu, click Options > 
    Add-in, click Go button in the Manage:
    Com-in Add.
    Check if there are any add-ins,
    clear the checkbox to disable them.
    Close the Office program and
    restart it.
    Add one check back each time to the list of Add-In,
    restart the Office program, and repeat the above procedure. Once the issue reappears again, we can determine which add-in causes this problem and then disable it.
    Suggestion 3: Test the issue with a new Windows user account
    ==============
    We can follow the steps in the articles to create a new user account to test the issue. If the problem does not occur in the new user account, some settings
    in the old account are corrupted. We can copy the main user files from the old account to the new account, delete the old account, and then continue using the new account.
    For the detailed steps on how to create a new user account and copy data from the old account to the new account, you can refer to the following articles:
    For Windows Vista/Windows 7:
    http://windows.microsoft.com/en-us/windows-vista/Create-a-user-account
    http://windows.microsoft.com/en-us/windows-vista/Fix-a-corrupted-user-profile
    Please take your time to try the suggestions and let me know the results at your earliest convenience. . If anything is unclear or if there
    is anything I can do for you, please feel free to let me know.
