I am using the Index Management Tool to import a new source. It brings up a familiar window from Version 2010. I choose FileSystemDocumentStore, enter the path to the folder containing the files to index, add the "Target match list" as ".xml" in "More options" and click "Import." It gives me the following error:
Please correct the URL (eg. it should start with http://, file:/// or https://).
What am I doing wrong?

What have you entered for the virtual path parameter? It should start with http://.... "Virtual folder path Is the URL of the folder - this is used for search results so that the user can access the documents " There's help too for each field in the program, just click the ? next to the field. -your feedback is helpful to other users, thank you!-your feedback is helpful to other users, thank you!

In the past, I've entered the following for Local Folder Path and Virtual Folder, respectively:
C:\Websites\MyDomain\Resources\LibraryC:\Websites\MyDomain\Resources\Library/
For the latter, I've now tried:
file:///C:/Websites/MyDomain/Resources/Library/
file:///C|/Websites/MyDomain/Resources/Library/
file:///Websites/MyDomain/Resources/Library/
Nothing is working; they're all giving the same error message, mentioned in a previous post.
The error message says I should be able to use file:/// and not just http:// or https://. What is the format I should use? I want the virtual path to point to a local disk file, not a website URL.
Thanks!
Dan

file:///C:/Websites/MyDomain/Resources/Library/ is correct... but hmm, well I reproduced the problem, then couldn't and wasn't sure what I'd done differently. It could be spaces, do you have any spaces in your virtual path? If so, try using %20 instead of spaces, that does cause it. We should handle that better for you...

That seemed to be the problem. I did have a space in the folder path, so I replaced it with %20. It's importing the source now, so I'll see if it finishes properly, but I'm hopefully that it's good now.
Thanks!
