Description: Indexing engine unreachable. Inner exception: The remote server returned an unexpected response: (413) Request Entity Too Large.

v-437-41352

The IIS logs show:

2022-07-08 22:43:37 ::1 POST /EVIndexing/Velocity.exe v.app=api-soap& 443 - ::1 - - 413 0 0 15

Cause

The IIS SSL setting for client certificates is set incorrectly.  It is set to Accept for the /EVIndexing virtual directory.   It should be set to Ignore instead.

Note: There are two variations of this issue.  They can be distinguished by the IIS log substatus code shown in the above log snippet immediately after the 413 http status code.  This solution is for when it is zero (0), as in 413.0.  

If the IIS logs show 413.2 instead, that issue has been addressed in EV version 12.5.1 and later versions.  See related article.

Solution

Change the setting for client certificates to Ignore for the /EVIndexing virtual directory in IIS manager.
