That didn't help.The only difference I see between my development server and
test server are those extra warnings in the event log of my test server.
Every time the catalog is run..These four warnings are logged
The message '-2147480624' for application 'Microsoft Search' could not be
formatted using library(ies): ''. The log entry contains the following
replacement strings:'SQLServer SQL0001800009'
The message '-2147480612' for application 'Microsoft Search' could not be
formatted using library(ies): ''. The log entry contains the following
replacement strings:'MSSQL75://SQLServer/50679dfc', 'SQLServer

Bruce,
Were you reviewing the Application Event log remotely, i.e., not on the
server where SQL Server 2000 with the MSSearch service resides? As this has
less to do with the below message error numbers (-2147480624 or -2147480612)
as they are related reading application event messages from un-known
services. Is your test or development server in a clustered environment?
The key error here is "Error: 8007007f - The specified procedure could not
be found." and the two following KB articles may be appropriate to this
problem, but the error reference in KB article Q304282 - "80070002 - The
system cannot find the file specified" is close, but not exactly the same
error (8007007f ). Reviewing past postings in this newsgroup, I found one
with your error and a past poster suggested this can be resolved via
re-running the SearchStp.exe program from SP3 file. Another suggestion was
to change the (fulltext) dependency to the SQL Agent - in a clean install -
this stops all errors from occurring. Below are the KB articles:
Q304282 PRB: Full Text Resource Fails to Come Online on a Cluster with
"Event ID 1069 :
SQL Cluster Resource 'Full Text' failed" Error Message
http://support.microsoft.com/default.aspx?scid=kb;en-us;304282&sd=tech
812666 How to recover a failed full-text search resource on a clustered
instance of SQL Server 2000
http://support.microsoft.com/default.aspx?kbid=812666
You also said that you have an IMAGE file type for one of the columns, what
is the exact datatype of this column? Char(3) or Varchar(4) or Sysname?
Thanks,
John

You're welcome, Bruce!
It does help the troubleshooting effort when the error number and in this
case the error message text is included! So, thank you for including the key
error message text as that is what is important in troubleshooting FTS
issues!
John
