Enabling 2008 Windows Server Index

Devon Sowell Nov 12, 2010 8:21 AM

Hello All-

I can't get my 2008 Windows Server to use the Search Index Catalog.

The Service is running, the Catalog file is visable, but it won't build the Catalog.

Any suggestions?

Thanks in advance.

Check out solution S-048488. Step 5 at the bottom of page 7 caused me some problems, my computer name had a "-" in it's name.

  Thanks Wayne, very helpful, I'll check that out.
  
  Yep, some of my computers have - in their names.

    S-048488 shows how to enable index searching for SQL. That is helpful, but my issue is with 2008 Windows Server. Not a SolidWorks specific topic per se, but I've searched all over and I can't seem to find the answer to my problem. Just fishin' here.
    
    Thanks,

        Yes, I have, still won't run.
        
        Again, MMC installed, Pointed to the correct File Server, Catalog file named and installed, Service running.

        Does your Application Event Log have any errors for the CI Service?
