Re: Error '0x8000ffff' occurred during full-text index population

Andy,

I scoured my various crawl logs to see if I ever got the same message, but I
have not. I see that missing iFilters are an 'expected' error and are
reported on properly, etc, etc. through the problems that came to my mind.

Do the files that produce these errors remain the same from day to day? Do
they share any characteristic in common, such as file type, length of file
name, directory nesting, embedded bitmaps, etc? I have not a clue as to
what is wrong, but any information that gives a hint would help.

Unfortuanately the event logs tell me to look at the full crawl logs - and
it is the full crawl logs which have this error code contained within
them.

If, as you suggest the code is a non specific one, how on earth am I going
to track down what is causing the error to be thrown in the first place!!

Thanks for your response - any other suggestions very welcome

Regards

Andy

Andy,

Do the SQL logs report any more information, or the Windows Event Logs?
Error '0x8000FFFF' (2147549183) often means "Unexpected failure", so
additional information from the logs might help.

I have a nightly job scheduled by the SQL Agent scheduler to run
full-text
creations nightly, and I have noticed that the following error message
appears during the process of trying to index a number of tables (but
not
all).

can someone please provide some advice as to what might be causing this
error to occur - and what I should be looking at to resolve this issue.
