John,
First you should review the server's "Microsoft Search" and MssCi source
events (informational, warnings & errors), as it is only in the Application
event log that SQL Server 2000 FT Indexing success & failures are recorded.
Secondly, could you execute the following SQL code and post the output?
use <your_database_name>
go
SELECT OBJECTPROPERTY
(object_id('<table_name>'),'TableHasActiveFulltextIndex')
SELECT OBJECTPROPERTY
(object_id('<table_name>'),'TableFullTextBackgroundUpdateIndexOn')
SELECT OBJECTPROPERTY
(object_id('<table_name>'),'TableFullTextChangeTrackingOn')
go
select FulltextCatalogProperty('<FT_Catalog>', 'UniqueKeyCount')
select FullTextCatalogProperty('<FT_Catalog>', 'itemcount')
select FullTextCatalogProperty('<FT_Catalog>', 'indexsize')
Have you or anyone else changed the MSSQLServer service startup account &/or
password via Win2K's components service? Also, does the SQL Server login
BUILTIN\Administrator exist on this server with all of it's normal defaults:
master database, SysAdmin rights? Depending upon your answers, you should
review the following KB articles:
317746 (Q317746) PRB: SQL Server Full-Text Search Does Not Populate Catalogs
http://support.microsoft.com/default.aspx?scid=kb;en-us;317746
277549 (Q277549) PRB: Unable to Build Full-Text Catalog After You Modify
MSSQLServer Logon Account Through [NT4.0) Control Panel [or Win2K Component
Services]
http://support.microsoft.com/default.aspx?scid=KB;EN-US;277549
If the BUILTIN\Administrator account was removed for security reasons, you
can use the following SQL code to get FTS to work without it:
exec sp_grantlogin N'NT Authority\System'
exec sp_defaultdb N'NT Authority\System', N'master'
exec sp_defaultlanguage N'NT Authority\System','us_english'
exec sp_addsrvrolemember N'NT Authority\System', sysadmin
Regards,
John
