Author Missing entry in sysfulltextcatalogs
Allan Ebdrup

2005-07-21, 7:23 am

Hi
I've just restored a database from a backup, usually I have to correct the
path of the fulltext index in master.sysfulltextcatalogs after doing this,
but now sysfulltextcatalogs is empty and has no entries. When I right click
the table with the fulltext index I can see that it has a fulltext index
defined.

Has anyone got an idea of what's going on, why is sysfulltextcatalogs
showing up as empty?

Kind Regards,
Allan Ebdrup

I am confused, you restored a database from a backup and you expect the
sysfulltextcatalog table to contain an entry for this catalog?

I take it that the original backup was done on this machine and is not from
a remote server, and that the database have tables which were full text
indexed before you restored the backup.

BTW - don't you mean you have to correct the path in the database's
sysfulltextcatalogs as opposed to master's?
