Hi

Can anyone help me. im getting the following error when i use the full text wizard to create my first catalog.



Im mot trying to do anything complex at all, just use the wizard to create a full text index on a single column. I aim the system administrator so i wouldnt of thought access rights is an issue. Ive hunted severel sites and got nothing. Please help or im gonna have to call microsoft, how horrid, please spare me.

Thanks in advance

Well, Kristian, since the message says that Full-text search was not installed properly, I'd reinstall it from the CD. It shouldn't be too much effort to do that. You haven't said which version of SQL Server or OS you're running on, so we can't tell you too much more specifically things to check.

Also note that when you create and populate the catalog, you have to do that either through Query Analyzer, or the server's Enterprise Manager. Your local Enterprise Manager cannot create the catalog on a different server because it cannot detect whether the service is running or not. Therefore if you're going to use EM, you have to use the one on the server itself.

Hi

Thanks for your comments, i will see if i can reinstall the full text search, although i think its installed ok because i have all the full text options within enterprise manager. But this is my first Full Text catalog so i dont know alot about it.

Im actualy running SQL 2000, but i had the same problem with V7, thats why i upgraded, but the problem seemed to carry over.

And i working in the Servers Enterprise manager, maybe ill give it a go using query analyzer and see where i get.
