Re: Treatment of extension column changed in SP4?

Tech Tip: Click here to run a free scan for Windows Errors and optimize PC performance

Could I get the URLs to the KB's please?

The file extension column is populated with ".doc.gz" etc. and the
datatype is VARCHAR(10).

I can confirm the MSSearch service is launching my IFilter because my
debug builds have logging built in. I wrote a quick revision that
manages to decompress the file, but of course when passing the
decompressed (and now extensionless) file to LoadIFilter to find a
suitable filter, it fails with a 0x80070057 error. (Pre-SP4 this worked
most swimmingly.) Is the IFilter system smart enough to find the right
filter when there is no extension?
