UnifiedDirectory.Search not a directory issue

Vote:

int userId = 100;

string virtualDir = "/Global/UserPetImages";

UnifiedDirectory directory = HostingEnvironment.VirtualPathProvider.GetDirectory(virtualDir) as UnifiedDirectory;

string fileNamePattern = string.Format("User{0}_PetImage", userId);

UnifiedSearchHitCollection searchResult = directory.Search(query);

On the sample code above, I get an error D:\MySite\VPP\Global\index not a directory

I can assure you that the UnifiedDirectory is getting the right one and I could even call directory.GetFiles() and retrieve correct results.

Would you know where \Global\index came from?

Here's the correct sample code:

int userId = 100;

string virtualDir = "/Global/UserPetImages";

UnifiedDirectory directory = HostingEnvironment.VirtualPathProvider.GetDirectory(virtualDir) as UnifiedDirectory;

string fileNamePattern = string.Format("User{0}_PetImage", userId);

UnifiedSearchQuery query = new UnifiedSearchQuery();

query.FileNamePattern = fileNamePattern;

UnifiedSearchHitCollection searchResult = directory.Search(query);

It's all good now. I manually needed to add an entry in the EPiServer.IndexingService.exe.config file located at C:\Program Files (x86)\EPiServer\Shared\Services\Indexing Service\
