SharePoint Crawl Log Error: The SharePoint item being crawled returned an error when attempting to download the item for example .aspx files

Solution :

1. Open Regedit on your search server/s
2. Navigate to this registry key: HKEY_LOCAL_MACHINESOFTWAREMicrosoftOffice  Server14.0SearchGlobalGathering Manager
3. Change Value “UserAgent” from  “MSIE 4.01”to“MSIE 8.0”
4. Restart the SharePoint Search Service.
5. Open a SharePoint PowerShell
   Get-SPSessionStateService
   If this returns false then we need to deploy one
   Enable-SPSessionStateService -DatabaseName “NameOfDatabase”
   Now lets go back and re-run that crawl
