Resolution
If the solution SOL37417 doesnnâ€t help please try the below procedure:
1. Start spotlight and go to history options | click on Options button
2. Select the path were the snapshots are stored and copy the path into clipboard
3. Open a windows explorer and paste path in address bar. Go one folder up.
4. This folder contains config.xml, the spotlight configuration.
5. There are two options now, edit the config.xml manually or delete config.xml.
If you opt to change the config.xml manually, which we recommend, open config.xml with notepad and search for OCI. The following config item should appear:
<ConfigItem Name="Continue After OCI Check fails" ProductId="SoO" Value="bool:0"/>
Change the zero to a one:
<ConfigItem Name="Continue After OCI Check fails" ProductId="SoO" Value="bool:1"/>
6. Then save config.xml, restart spotlight and make a connection which was failing before.
