Author FT indexes are not populating
kzakoski

2005-06-28, 1:23 pm

I've created a couple of full-text indexes using the FT wizards and/or sample
code from BOL. Everything appears to be correct and I've run a full
population on them without getting any errors. However, when I run my
queries to test the results I get no rows returned. When I look at the
properties of the FT Index, the item count states 0.

Did I miss something on setup?

Are there any messages from MSSCI or MSSEach in the event log?

Builtin\Administrato
r account had been removed causing the problem. KB
aritcle had a work around.

Additonal question? Will a FT Index process an entire 'text' datatype
column when building the index or is there a limit on the number of
characters it will process? On the FT index that I just created, I'm
searching the FT columnn that contains SQL scripts. The table name I'm using
in my contains clause is a pretty unique table name, but buried in a lengthy
script. When I run the query, I don't get any matches, but if I use a LIKE
clause with wildcards I can find it. Any suggestions?

From BOL entitled Filtering Supported File Types



Note For full-text indexing, a document must be less than 16 megabytes (MB)
in size and must not contain more than 256 kilobytes (KB) of filtered text.
