Indexing error ! help me~~

Question

Dear all~
The crawler fails and gives the below message. Please assist on what the job log is referring to.
<br>
=====================================================
<br>
This crawl could not be launched because the location from which it was supposed to start,
/dscab_tower/E-Approval could not be found or was inaccessible.
When the crawler attempted to visit this location it received the following message:
Error in function PTSoapCrawlProvider.
AttachToContainerNode
(pBagContainer ==
<?xml version="1.0" encoding="ucs-2"?>
<PTBAG V="1.1" xml:space="preserve">
<I N="PTC_CRAWL_DEPTH">-1</I>
<S N="PTC_UNIQUE">/dscab_tower/E-Approval</S>
<S N="REPOST"></S></PTBAG>, lNodePreferences == 3):
Error in function SOAPEnvelope.ReadIntegerParameter (strName == 'return'):
Error parsing SOAP XML for attribute 'return'(282610)
<br>
=====================================================
<br>
Thank you
<br>

Answer 1

/dscab_tower/E-Approval doesn't look like a valid starting URI to me.
If you're doing a windows file system crawl, you should put \\servername\sharename and if you're doing a web crawl, it should begin with http:// or https://.
That's what the crawler is trying to tell you.
