I am trying to set up a Full Text Catalog on SQL Server 2008 running on Windows Server 2008 R2 Enterprise.
I have created the catalog and added fields to be indexed. However, after a brief attempt at "Populating" the catalog, it then becomes "Idle" with 0 items. When I look at the Error Logs, I see the following error repeated over and over in the SQL Server Log, whenever the catalog tries to populate:
"Failed to map 16777216 bytes of contiguous memory", source being a server process id (spid) in the 20s or 30s. We've recently switched from using SQL Server 2005 to using 2008 for all future work, and this is a brand new database with only a few hundred rows of test data currently. I've created catalogs in the past on our SQL Server 2005 boxes without issue.
I do not have console access to the machine, but according to our sys admin when I inquired about this issue:
"Nothing in any logs except the SQL Logs. The server is tweaked using SQL Best practice so memory shouldn’t be an issue and it’s not using physical memory excessively at the moment.
There are a lot of hits on Google for similar problems but I haven’t seen a valid answer yet."
Thus, I'm turning to you in hopes you may be able to assist, even if simply with more ideas to try.
Thank you in advance.
