I have one web application and three host-named site collections. I had read an article that I just need to have the web application URL in the content source for the search to work, but that didn't resolve my issue.
https://webapplication - main root web application
https://staff.domain.com - Host name site collection
https://services.domain.com Host name site collection
https://sharepoint.domain.com host name site collection.
I have also created the registry entry for BackConnectionHostNames also.
Under Search Application topology I have all green check marks, but searchable items are listed as 0.
I am getting the following errors on my SharePoint 2013 server.
The start address https://sharepoint.domain.com cannot be crawled.
Context: Application 'Connect_Search', Catalog 'Portal_Content'
Details:
This URL is part of a host header SharePoint deployment and the search application is not configured to crawl individual host header sites. This will be crawled as a part of the host header Web application if configured as a start address. (0x80040de4)
