Search results do not contain URL for an individual post in the posts list on a blog site.

On a SharePoint Server 2007 blog site, you have a posts lists, which has several posts in it. When you do a full crawl of the content source, the posts list is crawled successfully. However, when you do a search for a word in the individual post the search doesn't returns the URL of the individual post but it returns the URL of the posts list.

The issue occurs because there is an inclusion crawl rule(for eg: https://*.*) that specifies to crawl all the SharePoint content as Http pages.

To resolve this issue, in the crawl rule (for eg: https://*.*) uncheck the option "Crawl SharePoint content as Http pages" and do a full crawl of the content source.
