SQL Server Full Text Search service running problem in Windows Vista
I use Windows Vista Business with all features turned on. When I installed SQL Server 2005 Developer Edition, I found Full Text Search service can't start itself. I tried running it from Management Console -> Services. It still fails with message: "The dependency service does not exist or has been marked for deletion."
So, what I did to remove the dependencies:
- Opened Registry Editor (regedit.exe)
- Went to HKEY_LOCAL_MACHINE\SYSTEM\CurrentControlSet\Services\msftesql$SQLSERVER
- Removed the contents (Data) of DependOnService key
- Rebooted. Now works fine.
I wasn't sure what particular dependencies were culprit, so I removed all and it works fine. Another thing to remember when you'll see any correct FullText SQL isn't working, check if the FullText service is running smoothly
