Full Text Catalog

  • I’m trying to delete a Full Text Catalog that:

    1. Is no longer needed.

    2. Was created with an unknown account.

     

    I receive the following:

    ---------------------------

    Microsoft SQL-DMO

    ---------------------------

    Error 21776: [SQL-DMO]The name 'FT_Problems_Table' was not found in the FullTextCatalogs collection.  If the name is a qualified name, use [] to separate various parts of the name, and try again.

     

    Any ideas on how to delete this?

     

  • Yes, I do. However, before you can delete the FT Catalog, I need to know more about your enviroment. Could you run the following SQL code and post the results in your reply?

    use <your_database_name_here>

    go

    EXEC sp_help_fulltext_catalogs

    EXEC sp_help_fulltext_tables

    EXEC sp_help_fulltext_columns

    go

    select * from sysfulltextcatalogs

    go

    It may be as simple as executing the following sql code: EXEC sp_fulltext_service 'clean_up'

    or it may be more complex, with manually deleting rows from sysfulltextcatalogs and registry keys.
