Hi All,

I have a problem with my SQL 2000 server , i can't enable full text index on my server . But i verified that my SQL server is installed with full text component and i got one service named "microsoft search" . And microsoft search service is now running , but when i enable full text index its take long time and can't enable this. So please provide a solution for this. Have Nice Day!

How much data are you extecting to index? Have you tried doing a full-text index on a small set of data to ensure you have everything setup the way you want it? Maybe the problem is volume....you're not waiting until it's complete????

What is the error you get?
Are you typing:
EXEC sp_fulltext_database 'enable' ?

Sajin, are you saying that the command works but then when you try to do a full-text index it takes a long time? Have you tried what Andrew suggested?

Start the service and try again. By the way, can you post what you did step by step?
