File size problem during Search Crawl : Solution is here.

You get an error message in the SharePoint 2007 Search Crawl Log that “The file reached the maximum download limit. Check that the full text of the document can be meaningfully crawled.”

Solution: This error occurred when SharePoint 2007 Search tries to Index a file larger than 10MB (default) size. By default, SharePoint Server 2007 can crawl and filter a file with a size of up to 10 MB. After this limit is reached, SharePoint adds a warning entry in the SharePoint gatherer log. In order to increase the default limit, you must add a new entry MaxDownloadSize in the windows registry.

Follow the steps below to add new entry in the windows registry:

Ø Open Registry Editor (RegEdit.Exe)

Ø Locate the following Key:

HKEY_LOCAL_MACHINE\SOFTWARE\Microsoft\Office Server\12.0\Search\Global\Gathering Manager

Ø Right Click “Gathering Manager” à New à DWORD Value. Name it MaxDownloadSize. Double-click, change the value to Decimal, and type the maximum size (in MB) for files that the gatherer downloads.

Ø RESET the index.

Ø Start Full Crawl.
