The Workspace Applications Folder Crawl Generates Four Event Log Messages Every Hour
This article was previously published under Q296224
When you create a workspace, an Applications folder is created outside of the workspace folder hierarchy that you can use to house Web Storage System applications. In addition, a scheduled task is created by default to perform an incremental index update every half hour so that application data is indexed and searchable from the workspace portal.
When an index update is performed, two informational messages are logged in the Application log on the server:
Event Type: Information
Event Source: Microsoft Search
Event Category: Gatherer
Event ID: 3019
Description: The crawl has started. Context: SharePointPortalServer, workspace_name Catalog.
Event Type: Information
Event Source: Microsoft Search
Event Category: Gatherer
Event ID: 3047
Description: The end of the crawl has been detected.
In addition, you see four event messages every hour in the server logs, regardless of whether or not there is any data in the Applications folder.
If you do not use the Applications folder, you may want to disable the scheduled index update task to avoid filling up the Application log with these messages. To disable the task:
- Click Start, point to Settings, and then click Control Panel.
- Double-click Scheduled Tasks, double-click the Workspace workspace_name Applications Notification task.
- Click to clear the Enabled (scheduled task runs at specified time) check box.
If you want to continue having the Applications folder indexed, but not at half-hour intervals, you can modify the schedule in the properties of the scheduled task so that the incremental updates occur less frequently.

- Microsoft SharePoint Portal Server 2001
Community Feedback System
Very often, it takes hours to solve a problem. Very often, you've looked high
and low, and have tried a lot of solutions. When you finally found it, chances
are, it was because someone else helped you. Here's your chance to give back.
Use our community feedback tool to let others know what worked for you and what
didn't.
Please also understand that the community feedback system is not warranted to be
correct, it's simply a system that we've built to let people try and help each
other. If something in a feedback response doesn't make sense to you, or you're
not comfortable making changes that the feedback talks about (like registry
edits), please consult a professional.
Thank you for using kbAlertz.com Feedback System.
