Full-text Allowed In SQL Server 2005
Apr 8, 2007
Hi,
I am putting this question here but I am not limiting it to sql server 2005 express edition.
I am developing an app on a local machine (winxp with sql server 2000 personal edition) however I came to find out that full-text does not work in this setup unless I use a server type machine.
This fouls up my development somewhat and I would like to know if there is
a) a work around for my sql server 200 setup
b) does full-text serach work in sql server 2005 express edition which I have installed on my PC ?
Thanks for any input on this issue.

I installed SQL Server 2005 express with advanced services which is supposed to include full-text search capability but I can't get it to work. When I try to create a full-text catalog it gives me an error because it does not think the full-text service is installed or loaded. I can't seem to find a reference to the full-text search feature to enable or install it. any ideas?

the sql server documentation states that the use of wildcards is allowed by placing an '*' at the end of the search term. I can get this to work OK in the SQL Server 2005 query window, heres an example
select ID, SUBSTRING(Title, 1, 100) AS Title, Implemented, Published from Table1 where contains(title,'"Therap*"') ORDER BY Title
this works OK and returns a list ot titles with the word Therapy in the title
Im trying to implelemnt this functionalty in a web app with C#. The string is passed to a stored procedure. How on earth do I pass in the quotes ??
Ive tried building the string as normal then adding single quotes on the end, so I get something like
retval = txt + "*"; //txt contains the partial word im searching for, then add the wildcard
then retval = "'" + retval + "'"; // add the single quotes
and pass txt as a string parameter to my stored procedure. It doesnt work. Can anyone tell me what im doing wrong ??
the same query works fine in the SQL query window.

Hi! I am moving this from the Transact SQL forum as I am not getting a reply. Hope it's OK!
Hello: I have successfully enabled SQL Server 2005 Full Text (MSFTESQL) on my database, created the FT Catalog in Storage, and defined a FT Index for a table ( 1 table for testing).
I have also created an expansion and replacement entry in the Thesaurus (tsENU.xml) and removed the comments. I have restarted the server and the FTS Service, In addition, (per your comments to another user) I have used sqlcmd to confirm my default language of 1033.
I am unable to get any results from the Thesaurus file. I am able to run queries against the index using CONTAINS and FREETEXT. I get results - however I only get the same thing I would get from the CONTAINS portion of the query.
Also ..SQLSERVER2995MSFTEUser$.. has permission on the FTData folder.
// This query //
SELECT name, description FROM table
WHERE CONTAINS(description, ' FORMSOF(THESAURUS, blender) ')
// on this Thesaurus located in this C: folder MSSQL.1MSSQLFTData sENU.xml //
<XML ID="Microsoft Search Thesaurus">
<thesaurus xmlns="x-schema:tsSchema.xml">
<diacritics = false/>
<case caseflag="false"></case>
<expansion>
<sub>blender</sub>
<sub>chopper</sub>
<sub>grinder</sub>
<sub>food processor</sub>
</expansion>
</thesaurus>
</XML>
// returns this //
A search for blender returns all strings with the exact word blender in them - not even any plural forms. A search for blend or grind returns nothing. FREETEXT does a little better returning blender, blenders, blending. Still no grind,chop, or food process.
Appreciate your help, Thank you.

Newbie questions.
1. Can SQL Server 20005 Express do full text searches?
2. If not, is there a way to use SQL Server 20005 Express to search a database column containing text data type?
Using Visual Basic 2005 Express, I would like to do a simple search with a search textbox and button that will return the entire contents of a field of database text when one or more words in the search text box are in the field of text in the database.
I have been playing in Visual Basic 2005 Express and using SQL queries (SELECT, FROM, WHERE) to output to DataGridView controls by using ID columns as filters in the query, etc. This I can do. But I have not been able to use a word or phrase in the search textbox as a filtered query to output the entire database field of text which contains the search word or phrase in the search textbox.
Thanks for any help in getting me started with this.

Hi guys,
I am getting a really weird error message when executing a full-text query on SQL server 2005:
-------------------------
Microsoft OLE DB Provider for SQL Server error '80040e14'
The execution of a full-text query failed. "The form specified for the subject is not one supported or known by the specified trust provider."
-------------------------
Just to give a bit of background: we recently moved our database from a machine with SQL Server 2003 to a different computer with SQL Server 2005. This is when the error started showing up.
The query is not particular complex:
SELECT * FROM myTable M INNER JOIN FREETEXTTABLE(myTable, *, 'keyword') ct ON ct.[KEY] = M.Resource_ID
It's the "Freetexttable" bit that creates the error message. I have done some research on google, but I can't seem to find a solution.
Has anybody come across this error before? Any ideas on how I could fix it?

Using SQL Server 2005 Express (Advanced SP2) I have created a Full-Text Search application in VB for distribution on CD for single PCs. Works fine on my local machine during development.
Although the SQL Server 2005 Express edition can be distributed freely, it does not seem to support Full-Text searches in the distributed version. Is this true? Or am I missing something with my deployment?
If I need another version of Sql Server for distribution of a Full-Text Search app, how do I go about obtaining the proper DB and permission for distribution? The DB size is about 600 MB.

SQL Server 2000 is pretty well documented with the limit of 256 (see http://msdn2.microsoft.com/en-us/library/aa214780(SQL.80).aspx) but I can find no documentation anywhere that discusses the limit on SQL Server 2005.
Is there one ?

I have this simple full text search query that works perfectly on my own computer using sql server 2005 express, however, on the production server(shared hosting)when I added the first 50+ rows, the full text search works perfect, but as the number of rows increases, the full text search can only see the first50+ rows, but not the new ones. Is there any quick solution for this or it's just a common mistake for developers for not properly indexed columns?Is there a way to re-indexed all rows without loosing data on the live server? search query: SELECT TOP 50 *FROM li_BookmarksWHERE FREETEXT(Keywords,@Keywords)

Hi
We are using the SQL Server 2005 Full Text Service. The data is not huge, but the kind of data is that each record is small and there are a large number of records. There are 35 million records now with 11 GB of data and about 1.6 GB of FT catalog on the table. This is expected to grow to at least 10 times the size of this data. The issue is with FTS taking a long time to return results when the number of hits (rows) getting returned from FTS is large for some searches, it takes a very long time. With the same data & catalog, those full text queries for less common words return timely. The nature of the problem doesnt allow us to only have top results. We need all the results. So it’s not about the size of data but the number of results getting returned from FT. (As the catalog is inverted). The machine is dual processor with 4 GB RAM.
I am considering splitting the table and hence the catalog and using multiple servers to do full text searches in smaller catalogs. Is there any other way this issue can be solved ?
If splitting is the only way, can you give me an idea as to what is a statistical/standard limit to the number of search results/cataog size as which FTS gives good results
Thanks in advance

hello.
is there a rational explanation for which after some select statements, the rank returned by the full-text search engine is 0, knowing that just after the repopulation the rank is displayed correctly?
in other words, time and usage messes up the ranking. why?
thanks!

I have upgraded a SBS 2003 MSDE database (instance MSSQL$SHAREPOINT) to SQL Server 2005 Express Advanced Edition. This worked without a problem even when I enabled all the options for the upgrade including Full-text search.
I now want to have Full-text search on this instance of SQL 2005 with database name of STS_EVEREST_1.
I first tried to use the T-SQL command of "CREATE FULLTEXT CATALOG BBVisionCatalog AS DEFAULT;"
I now know that the original database was created under SQL 2000 and therefore I needed to use SQL 2000 commands. So I used the following script:
USE STS_EVEREST_1
EXEC sp_fulltext_database 'enable'
EXEC sp_fulltext_catalog 'BBVisionCatalog', 'create';
It produced the following ERROR messages:
(1 row(s) affected)
Msg 7609, Level 17, State 2, Procedure sp_fulltext_database, Line 46
Full-Text Search is not installed, or a full-text component cannot be loaded.
I checked to see if the Microsoft Search Service was running. It was running.
Anyone know how I can fix this?

I've searched the forum and saw that this question has been asked several times. However, none of the responses point to any documentation about this limit. We've got different groups bickering over this ("There is no limit!" "Yes there is!" "No there isn't!") and it would help to have a link on the MSDN or a response from Microsoft to this question to put this to rest once and for all. Also, if there is a limit, is that per Sql Server instance or per physical server?
Secondly, we currently have over 400 catalogs. We've noticed it takes 4-5 minutes for new data to show up in search results. Does the number of catalogs affect performance, or is it the amount of data, irrespective of catalog count?
Thanks

Hello everyone !
I want to perform Full Text Search with SQL Server 2000. My documents (.doc, .xls, .txt, .pdf) are stored in a SQL Server field which is binary (the type of the column is image).
I would like to know, how you can extract pieces of text from the documents.
Example:
I have a ASPX page with codebehind in C# making the search in a table in SQL server that is full text indexed.
I make a search looking for the word "peace", than SQL server will take care about the search and return it to me the rows that match with that. But also I'd like to extract the 50 characters before and after where sql server found the word "peace" to show in the result page.
Does anyone has any idea how to work around it ?
Best regards.

Hello everyone,
I've got a little question - wich drives me absolutely nuts by now :).
I'm trying to optimize my full-text search since a while now.
Scenario:
Full-Text Table:
id - int - primary key
srcID - varchar(30)
srchField - varchar(150) - FULL-TEXT INDEXED
src - varchar(15)
updateStamp - timestamp
Records in Table: ~ 4480000
To get my results I have to link the srcID-Field to another table.
But for performance Testing, two queries
LIKE VERSION:
SELECT srcID FROM fulltexttable WHERE srchField LIKE '%an%' GROUP BY srcID ODER BY srcID DESC
1. Running Time: 5 seconds, returns 921315 rows
2. Running Time: 5 seconds, returns 921315 rows
FT VERSION:
SELECT srcID FROM fulltexttable WHERE CONTAINS(srchField,' "an*" ') GROUP BY srcID ODER BY srcID DESC
1. Running Time: 14 seconds, returns 443676 rows
2. Running Time: 8 seconds, returns 443676 rows
If i do a search wich returns less records, full-text is a lot faster - but on big recordcounts it seems the LIKE query is faster? Is that possible???
Anyone any ideas?
Thanks in advance

Hiya,
I have recently become responsible for a small database for a volunteer soccer league. I am reasonably savvy when it comes to development, but I have not had a lot of experience with administration before.
I need to do what I think must be pretty simple: set up full text indexing so I can use a CONTAINS search on a table. The table contains all of the fields the kids use, and each field has a number of divisions that typically play on that field; we use these 'favored divisions' to make scheduling a little easier. Now, one day when I have time, I will set up a proper, normalized, one-to-many relationship between the favored divisions and the playing fields, but right now it's basically like this:
fieldID (int, primary key, identity seed)
fieldName (varchar), e.g. High School Field
favored_divisions (varchar) - comma-delimited list of divisions, e.g. G10,B14,G12
I imagine it's probably database sacrilege to have a comma-delimited list like that, but we don't have the resources now to re-write that piece of the web application. My question is, in SQL Server 2005, what do I need to do to be able to do a full-text search on this field with the following query:
SELECT fieldID, fieldName
FROM playing_fields
WHERE CONTAINS(favored_divisions,'G10')
Right now the query runs and does not return an error, but does not return any results, either. IIRC, full-text indexing is enabled by default in SQL Server 2005, but I am not familiar with the procedure -- something about having to populate a catalog. Do I need to edit or set up a new index on the actual playing_fields table? What has to happen to make this work?
Thanks very much,
Sam

I am following the how to in the sql studio management express and for text indexing it says
================================================
To enable a database for full-text indexing
In Object Explorer, expand the server group, right-click the database for which you want to enable full-text indexing, and then select Properties.
Select the Files page, and then select Use full-text indexing
This worked ok
==================================================
next it says to
==================================================
To enable a table for full-text indexing
Expand the server group, expand Databases, expand User Databases, and expand the database that contains the table you want to enable for full-text indexing.
Right-click the table that you want to enable for full-text indexing.
Select Full-Text index, and then click Enable Full-Text indexing.

Full text search is the search functionality that enables a fast and easy way of searching text based data in SQL Server. Although the concept of full text search is not new in SQL Server 2005, there are considerable enhancements in performance and manageability of SQL Server 2005. http://aspalliance.com/1512_Understanding_Full_Text_Search_in_SQL_Server_2005.all

Hello:
I am on a development machine with sql 2000 & sql 2005 installed. The full Text Search for sql 2005 is installed and running on this local machine.
However, I need to do a full text search with sql 2000. When I do:
sp_fulltext_database 'enable'
I get:
Full-Text Search is not installed, or a full-text component cannot be loaded.
Can I install full text search for both sql server 2000 & 2005. I read somewhere that this is not possible.
Since fulltext search loads with sql 2005 (I believe), does this mean I can't do an sql server 2000 full text search on a local machine (or server) that has both of sql2000 & sql 2005 installed.
Thanks for any help on this

I have conflicting info about whether SQL 2005 Express contains full-text search and catalogueing functionality. I have read several places online where it is stated that "SQL Server 2005 Express Edition with Advanced Services" contains full-text search, but that seems to conflict with the info presented here:
http://www.microsoft.com/sql/prodinfo/features/compare-features.mspx
...for clarification, see my screenshot:

I have Googled the terms 'move path change full-text index catalog' and have come up with nothing that pertains to SQL 2005...only 2000 and 7.0....
So my question remains, how the heck do you change the location of the full-text catalog in SQL 2005? Must I delete and re-create? If so is there a good article on this process? I don't want to loose data or screw anything up....I can't imagine I am the first person who wants to do his?????

I have setup full text search on a table. Everything works fine. Now I want to find documents that contain the next string: 'T-150/04'
The query will give zero results. Is there a way to find documents that contain these kind of strings? (slahses and minus)
I use the following query:
SELECT * FROM CONTAINSTABLE (jurisprudentie, text, '"T-150/04"' )
If I do this query:
SELECT * FROM CONTAINSTABLE (jurisprudentie, text, '"judge"' )
It will work fine. I know it has to do something with the interpunction things (slahs and minus), but I don't know what query may solve my problem.
Also a select * from containstable(jurisprudentie, text, '"T_150_04"' ) doesn't give me the proper result.
The minus sign and the slash are disturbing things. If i search for "150" or for "04" I will find the record, but I would like to speficically search for the exact string "T-150/04". Because these are references to case law issued by the court.
I hope someone can help me out.
Regards,
CBGE
