In my SharePoint application, I have a managed metadata site column called Taxonomia and a custom content type inherited from Welcome Page that uses this column. I also have a custom page layout for this content type and some pages created that have that column filled with some terms.

The Search Service Application is installed and I would like to to be able to search for pages filtering by the column Taxonomia. To do this, I went to the "Search Schema" page in the SharePoint Central Admin and created a managed property also called Taxonomia that maps the crawled property ows_Taxonomia. Below there are the options marked for this property:

Configuration of the managed property

After creating it, I did an index reset and a full crawl but still I'm not able to get results for this managed property in the SharePoint search.

I have some pages created that have the Taxonomia column filled with the tag Teste, but any query searching for Teste or Taxonomia:Teste in the SharePoint search page or the REST API (www.site.com/_api/search/query?queryText='Taxonomia:Teste') won't return any results.

Am I doing something wrong in this process or missing some step?

EDITED

Well, the pages were actually being indexed by the search engine but they were missing a lot of managed properties such as ListItemID, ContentType and of course the property I created. I noticed it when I searched for the page title using the SharePoint 2013 Search Query Tool and it returned the page with these properties empty.

It suddenly started working some time after without I change any configuration, however, sometimes when I activate the crawling it starts to fail again as it loses the property values. The only explanation I can find for this is that something in the search service is failing due to the low-resource virtual machine this SharePoint installation is running. We have 6.5GB of RAM and when the search crawling is active the RAM is almost filled up and the whole machine turns extremely slow.

I noticed that sometimes when the RAM usage is high this error occurs more frequently, while the properties tend to be crawled correctly when it is lower, but I can't confirm that this is the cause of the problem since I didn't increased the RAM on the server yet.
