Not sure what’s happening with this, but here’s my question. I have a Sql Server 2008 database that I need to be able to do full-text indexing/searching but when I try to setup my indices on the table, I get the following:

alt text http://docs.google.com/a/delorenzodesign.com/File?id=dgr4q2dh_25sq4dnxd9_b

I’ve tried running this stored procedure on my database and it’s successful:

EXEC sp_fulltext_database @action = 'enable'

But I still get the above window and my full-text searches don’t return any results when they should.

What am I missing?

    Thanks for the “kick in the pants” John. I had looked there, but as my wife says I “looked like a man”. Second look turned up this page:

    Administering Full-Text Search

    And after reading the first bullet point (I’ve bolded the important stuff, for me at least)…

    System management tasks such as managing the FDHOST Launcher service (MSSQLFDLauncher), restarting filter daemon host process if you change the service account credentials, configuring server-wide full-text properties, and backing up full-text catalogs…

    Restarting the daemon, got me going. Man, that was easy. 😀
