Problem:
This is the error
you find in the Microsoft Search Server logs when the size of the file being
uploaded is greater than 50 MB. This is
because the default size is 50 MB for crawling. Hence when the size of the file
being uploaded exceeds the allowable limit then the crawler will not be able to
crawl the file and throws this error. In this article, we will see how to fix
this issue.
The error log
screen is shown below:
Solution:
To allow the
files that is larger in size and to be crawled and fully indexed we have to add
the MaxDownloadSize dword value to the 50 MB
or more.
Go to Run ->
Type regedit -> Navigate to the
following path and change the value.
"HKEY_LOCAL_MACHINE\SOFTWARE\Microsoft\Office
Server\12.0\Search\Global\Gathering Manager"
Change the
following value "MaxDownloadSize"=dword:00000032
Note: Hexadecimal 32 = Decimal 50.
Try restarting
the index server and now initiate a full crawl then the files of large size
will be shown in the Search Results.

in fixing this issue and the search is showing the results as expected.

I tried this but apparently Office Server does not appear in my regedit.
