Cloud search service applications fails to crawl and throws 403 forbidden due to outbound network proxy

  • [アーティクル]

Recently we received couple of questions around failures while crawling content (Onpremise 2016, 2013, 2010 farms) from Cloud Search Service Application when there is an Outbound proxy server in the network. All content sources experience errors regarding Azure plugin and fails to successfully submit content.This post is focused around common error and remediation for Cloud Search Service Application (Cloud Hybrid Search, CSSA) proxy settings.

Below are some of the extracts from ULS logs.

Exception details

Or you may see the below exception.

AzureServiceProxy::GetCerts: Failed to get encryption certificates from AzureServiceProxy:: GetAzureTenantInfo caught Aggregate Exception: Unable to connect to the remote server, unable to get Service Properties, submit is blocked.

This typically happens if Cloud Search Service Application farm is on a network that has Outbound proxy server for internet access or no internet access available from the SharePoint crawl servers. To confirm, its recommended to grab a Network trace preferably fiddler trace in context of the account running msssearch15 while crawl is running.

To fix the issue, perform the following actions

1.Ensure that servers hosting Sharepoint Cloud Search Service Application farm has access listed in these articles.(Blog, TechNet). A good test is also to access the urls mentioned in the blog with account running the search service in the farm.

  1. You also need to ensure that account running the search service (msssearch, noderunner accounts) (for crawl and Query federation scenarios to work) in the Cloud Search Service Application farm have unrestricted outbound internet access. If not, set system level proxy settings for these accounts with netsh. Below are the steps.
  2. Make a note of the accounts (account running the search service) either from windows services or taskmanager.
  3. Log in to a server in the farm (preferably crawl server) in the Cloud Search Service Application farm. Run the below commands

Open Internet explorer and validate proxy server has been set correctly and validate exclusions list if any.

Open a command prompt and type in netsh winhttp show proxy. (Make a note of the output to ensure what has been set currently and if you need to revert.

netsh winhttp import proxy source=ie

  1. If you cannot log in to the server with the account running search service, you can launch an admin command prompt and manually update the proxy settings. If the command prompt fails to launch with the search service account and correct credentials ensure that the account has log in locally rights on the server.  Below are the steps.
  2. Launch a command prompt with the account running the search service account.
  3. At the command prompt, type netsh winhttp set proxy proxyservername:portnumber.
