How to export Crawl Logs in SharePoint 2007 ?

  • Artikel

Do you want to gather Crawl logs for documentation or troubleshooting in SharePoint 2007? With ExportCrawlLog utility from CodePlex, you can achieve that requirement. Here are the simplified steps for you:

- Download the .zip archive from https://www.codeplex.com/ExportCrawlLog to the Index Server box
- Extract the contents of the zip file
- Go to STSADMExportCrawlLog\STSADMExportCrawlLog\bin\Release folder
- Click Start > Run; type %WINDIR%\assembly
- Drag and drop the STSADMExportCrawlLog.dll into %WINDIR%\assembly folder
- Make sure STSADMExportCrawlLog.dll is present in %WINDIR%\assembly folder
- Go to STSADMExportCrawlLog\STSADMExportCrawlLog folder
- Click Start > Run; type %commonprogramfiles%\Microsoft Shared\Web Server Extensions\12\Config”
- Drag and drop the file stsadmcommands.STSADMExportCrawlLog.xml into "%commonprogramfiles%\Microsoft - Shared\Web Server Extensions\12\Config” folder.

Now run this command using the account which has access to SSP databases [normally using Search service account] to get the command line options:

stsadm -help ExportCrawlLog

Do you get the supported parameters for ExportCrawlLog like this one? 

-t (d|s|c|p) -site <portal url> [-outfile filename] [-history] [-s startdatetime] [-e enddatetime] [-from #] [-thru #] [-cat (Portal_Content|ProfileImport)] [-csid #] [-msgid #] [-u url pattern] [-hostname hostname] [-mt (s|w|e)]

Then You are done!

Let us see some examples about how to make use of ExportCrawlLog option with stsadm:

Example 1. To get the all results within a specific time window [like 15:10 hrs to 21:00 hrs]:

stsadm -o ExportCrawlLog -t d -site " https://sitename " -history -outfile c:\output.log -s "2009-03-25 15:10:26" -e "2009-03-25 21:00"

Example 2. To get all information in the crawl log irrespective of timeframe:

stsadm -o ExportCrawlLog -t d -site " https://sitename " -history -outfile c:\output.log

Example 3. To find out the content sources and their associated content IDs, run this command:

stsadm -o ExportCrawlLog -t c -site https://site

This will give the summary like this one:

Content Source Summary Report
=============================

4 : Local Office SharePoint Server sites
Start Addresses
---------------
https://site:4444/
https://site:5555/
https://site/
sps3://site:5555/
Operation completed successfully.

Here 4 : is the content ID for the content source. It can be associated with the ContentSourceId field of the resulting output files [for examples 1 & 2]

Hope this information is helpful!
