Full-text setup error

Hi,
I'm trying to install full-text search service on SQL server using command
ftsetup.exe, but I always get error "FulltextSetup returned error code:
0x80000023".
I've upgraded MSDE with SQL Server 2000 standard . Upgrade process did not
install full-text search service, so I had to do it manually as it is
suggested in KB article 827449
(http://support.microsoft.com/default...b;en-us;827449). I've
successfuly installed Microsoft Search service (service is running), but
when I try to configure the instance of SQL Server to use the Microsoft
Search service with ftsetup command ("ftsetup.exe SQLServer 0 1 0 0 0"), it
fails. I have SQL server 2000 standard with SP3a, and MSSQLSERVER service is
running as local system account.
Can you please give me some advice how to make full-text working?
Thanx (and Happy New Year to all),
Bogdan
Bogdan,
The procedures KB article 827449 are used when it is necessary to "manually
RE-install" the FT Search components on a server where these components were
install installed, but later determined that some problem occurred during
that installation. In your case, the initial FT Search components have not
been installed due to your upgrade path from MSDE to SQL Server 2000
Standard Edition. I'd recommend that you install the Full-text Search
components via your SQL Server 2000 Setup CD and select "custom
installation" and under "server components" you will see "Full-text Search"
and you should checkmark this and then the SQL Server 2000 Setup process
will install these components for you.
Thanks,
John

full-text search service doesn't start on Win2K3 server

Hello,
I am having trouble getting the full-text search to properly install on a
Win2k3 server. The folder is there but it is empty. I'm not sure if this is
related but when I go to install SQL2000 on a Win2K3 box it tells me that
SQL2000 sp 2 and below are not supported. I went ahead with the install
thinking that I could just upgrade it to sp3a right after. Is this what
screws up the full text install? Do I need to get a disk with SQL2000 and
sp3 combined to get this to work? Any ideas will be appreciated.
TIA!!
jj
Pls check your sqlstp.log and sqlsp.log for any FTS related error messages
that happened during setup or upgrade.

Full-text search engine on SQL Server 2000

I have tried install Microsoft full-text search engine on SQL Server
2000 (Developer version). The operating system is XP Pro SP2,
with .net framework 2.0. With every variation I have tried to install
it I get:
"Installation of Microsoft Full-Text Search Engine Package Failed
(-2147220991) 0x80040201. An event was unable to invoke any of the
subscribers."
Any ideas?
Is this relevant?

Thanks Hilary. Looked into this and appears that the original error
occurs whether .net framework 2 is installed or not.
