Right click on your database, select full-text index and make sure you have
enabled full text. If it has been make sure your population is in progress.
If it is can you post your gatherer log here. You can find it in c:\Program
Files\Microsoft SQL Server\MSSQL.X\MSSQL\Log where x is your instance name.
Your gatherer log will look like this:
SQLFT0013000005.LOG.6
or
SQLFT0013000005.LOG

Hi Hilary, thanks for the response.
Using SQL Server Management Studio I do not find a selection to enable
full text when I click on the database. It is there if I click on the
table and choose Full-Text Indexing and I have selected it. I did a
full-population on the table (fltProduct with 157080 rows).
Here is the log SQLFT0003200006.LOG:
2006-11-14 07:42:56.49 spid24s Informational: Full-text Full
population initialized for table or indexed view

'1821249543', database ID '32'). Population sub-tasks: 1.

This indicates that you successfully indexed 157080 rows in
[Model_pbs].[dbo].[fltProduct]
What is the content of these rows you are trying to index?
