Full Index Searching Question
Apr 16, 2008
I have enabled Full Index Searching on my SQL Server 2005 database and it is working correctly.
The problem I am having is this. When I search for the word "Spider-Man" I get results containing "Spiderman, Spider-Man and Spider Man" which is what I want.
However, when I search on "Spiderman" I do NOT get results containing "Spider-Man or Spider Man"
Also when I search on "Spider Man", I only get "Spider-Man" and not "Spiderman"
Is there an EASY way to get results on any form of SpiderMan on my search?

I have sql server 2000. I copied a database from one server to another. I have one table that has a full-text index. When I transferred over the database, the index still existed, but was not populated. I made sure the path for the file is pointing to a new correct location. I did "start full population". It only populated one entry @ 1MB. On the old server the index is 100MB with more than 3 million records.
I tried rebuilding, re-creating, and it all works, but when I run "start full population", it only populates 1 record. I double checked the table in question and it has over 3 million records and proper primary key.
How do I resolve this.

I am using Full Text Index to index emails stored in BLOB column in a table. Index process parses stored emails, and, if there is one or more files attached to the email these documents get indexed too. In result when I'm querying the full text index for a word or phrase I am getting reference to the email containing the word of phrase if interest if the word was used in the email body OR if it was used in any document attached to the email.
How to distinguish in a Full Text query that the result came from an embedded document rather than from "main" document? Or if that's not possible how to disable indexing of embedded documents?
My goal is either to give a user an option if he or she wants to search emails (email bodies only) OR emails AND documents attached to them, or at least clearly indicate in the returned result the real source where the word or phrase has been found.

I am trying to run a full text serach on one field, a Varchar 2000.
say the field contains:
(before you break the seal of your new product box, please be careful to read all the instructions) ...for example
I search for keywords that may be in this field
Like:
product box
seal
instructions
and this row is included in the result set
but I would like to leave out words like all pronouns and 'a' and 'I' ...words that aren't going to matter to the search.
Does someone know where I can stgart in doing this full text searching?
Thanks,
Eric

I`ve just starting playing around with version 7.0 and was wondering if anyone knows how to implement the Full-text Searching feature. Its sound like a neat feature if I could just get it to work.
Thanks in advance

I've assumed responsibilty for a sqlserver 2000 that has many databases and has only 1 database that uses full text searching. That 1 application now wishes for me to update the noise words file to remove the single characters.
As far as I can tell, no other application is using the full text searching since I don't see any catalogs created for any of them.
So, if no other databases and applications in this sqlserver have catalogs created for them, can I safely assume that changing the noise words file will not impact any of them even if the other databases do have text fields in some tables?

Hi i am really new to full text searching, I have created a catalog using:
sp_fulltext_catalog 'textcatalog','create'
and now i want to add a table with:
sp_fulltext_table 'Product', 'create','textcatalog', 'ProductID'
where product is a table in my database and productID is the primary key to that table. The primary key cannot be null,
But i get an error:
'ProductID' is not a valid index to enforce a full-text search key. You must specify a unique, non-nullable, single-column index.
Can any one point me in the right direction?
Thanks in advance
Tuppers!

Hi
I've used CONTAINS on a varchar field.
in SQL SERVER 2000
the query was "Select name from description where CONTAINS(name,' "donot*" ')
say if I search for "Select name from description where CONTAINS(name,' "donot a*" ')
---it doesn't return rows.
as might be it is seeing that 'a' as the starting letter of AND key word which is used in CONTAINS
but how to tell that it is my next letter in the search
Really I need more clarity on this...
Thanxs in advance

Hi,
I was wondering when is it worth using Full Text Searching as opposed to using LIKE? Also, since I will be using third party for hosting my site, generally, do hosts support Full Text Searching?
Thanks!

I'm wrtiting a local site search egine but I need to make use of functions like FREETEXTABLE
for instance. In order to use this I have to have the' Full Text Search
table' enabled for a table. Now the Microsoft Search Service is running
in MSDE; of that I'm sure. However when I try to enable the full text
searching on a table or database the option that I'm supposed to choose
is grayed out which means I can't select it. What's wrong? What do I
have to do to be able to use that option? I' short of time and would
appreciate n answer a.s.a.p. Thanks

I am very new to SQL and Access projects.
I have created the full text catalogs for my tables, so that I can search all the tables at the same time, from any of the fields in the catalogs.
I have created the following procedure:-
create procedure usp_full_text(@findtext varchar(255))
as
select set_id as URN, input_date as date_of_record from set_records where freetext (*, @findtext)
There are a few union selects under this, but
If I search for perhapse 'SMITH' from within access, then this will bring back all the records which have smith in them somewhere, which is good, however if I repeat the search for 'smit' then I get no records returned.
How can I change the code to find the parts of words, or string of charactors, and how can I set this to do a soundex search?
Hopefully all this is possible, i just need pointers on how to achieve this, or I could be sat there for days.
Many thanks for any help you can offer.

Hope I am in the correct section.
I am installing a FTS system on an existing system (that used LIKE % queries!! hahaha)
Anyway, it is working pretty well (AND FAST!) but when I type in a
common word like "damage" I get like 32,000 records. Now, the
server handles those records in about one second but the ASP page that
returns the results takes about one MINUTE to download. When I
save the source, it is almost 12 MEGS!!
So, basically, I am streaming 12 megs across the pipe and I want to reduce that.
I would like the system to detect over maybe 500 records and cancel the search.
I have put a "TOP 500" into the search and that actually works pretty well but is there a better/smarter method?
Thanks!

For one day, this SPROC executes very quickly to return results on a Full Text catalog.
ALTER Procedure dbo.sp_RSSHarvestedHeadlines_FullTextSearch
(
@ORKeywords varchar(4000) = 'xxxx',
@ANDKeywords varchar(4000) = 'xxxx',
@NOTKeywords varchar(4000) = 'xxxx',
@SourceID int = -1,
@IsHidden bit = null
)
As
set nocount on
SELECT HHL.HeadlineID,
HHL.Title,
HHL.Link,
HHL.[Description],
HHL.PubDate,
HHL.GMTDateAdded,
RSSSources.SourceTitle,
RSSSources.SourceLink
FROM RSSHarvestedHeadlines HHL
INNER JOIN RSSSources ON HHL.SourceID = RSSSources.SourceID
WHERE HHL.PublishedFlag = 0
AND (@IsHidden is null OR HHL.HideFlag = @IsHidden)
AND (@SourceID = -1 OR HHL.SourceID = @SourceID)
AND (@ORKeywords = 'xxxx' OR (CONTAINS(HHL.Title, @ORKeywords) OR CONTAINS(HHL.Description, @ORKeywords)))
AND (@ANDKeywords = 'xxxx' OR (CONTAINS(HHL.Title, @ANDKeywords) OR CONTAINS(HHL.Description, @ANDKeywords)))
AND (
@NOTKeywords = 'xxxx'
OR (
(NOT CONTAINS(HHL.Title, @NOTKeywords)
AND
NOT CONTAINS(HHL.Description, @NOTKeywords))
)
)
ORDER BY HHL.GMTDateAdded DESC, HHL.PubDate DESC
But somethign happens overnight and in the morning the sproc times out. While running (even from a new query window on the SQL 2005 server itself) it utilizes 100% CPU until it times out.
When I pass default parameters to the sproc (not using any part of the query that uses Full Text) the sproc returns every record in the database very quickly. No hang ups.
But the moment I add any text in say the @ORKeywords parameter, for example, the sproc utilizes 100% CPU for maybe 15 seconds and then times out.
By accident I discovered that I can fix this temporarily by copying the database. I don't use the new copy or anything. Just the act of copying the database fixes it. The sproc then executes normally, and quickly. But the next morning it's back to slow again.
Note, over night I am adding about 1000 records to the table.
Would automatic updates to the FT Catalog choke on 1000 records?
Also note that one of the fields being cataloged is a "Text" field (blob). Would that cause this?
Would what text is being added to the table matter? What if an invalid character was added (like some european character or a control character)? Would FT indexing hang up on that?
I am at a loss.
The following code will recreate the table:
CREATE TABLE [dbo].[RSSHarvestedHeadlines](
[HeadlineID] [int] IDENTITY(1,1) NOT NULL,
[SourceID] [int] NOT NULL,
[Title] [varchar](500) COLLATE SQL_Latin1_General_CP1_CI_AS NOT NULL,

Quick question about the primary purpose of Full Text Index vs. Clustered Index.
The Full Text Index has the purpose of being accessible outside of the database so users can query the tables and columns it needs while being linked to other databases and tables within the SQL Server instance.
Is the Full Text Index similar to the global variable in programming where the scope lies outside of the tables and database itself?
I understand the clustered index is created for each table and most likely accessed within the user schema who have access to the database.
Is this correct?
I am kind of confused on why you would use full text index as opposed to clustered index.
Thank you

I'm using the Full text functionality of SQL 2005 Express Advanced and it works well.
However, the first time a query is run it take 20 seconds or so to actually return the search results. Thereafter, the search results are almost immediate.
That would be fine, except that if no further search is performed for approx 15 minutes or so, then we are back to the first scenario where it takes 20 seconds to return the results.
I assume this means that the full text catalog is not being held in cache at the server? Is there anyway to force it to do this?
My first thoughts were that Full Text within 2005 was an excellent tool, but if the first search always takes a long time then I will have to re-think as I can be sure that customers will get extremely annoyed at the response.
Do you know if there is any way around this or if there are any fixes imminent for this problem.....indeed, is it a problem or am I missing a fundamental setup issue?
What would be the implications if I created a small console application to perform a full text search once every minute at the server to keep the index cached?
many thanks
