SQL 05 full-text query fails "Specified module could not be found."

Question

I'm running SQL 2005 on Windows XP. I have a database table that has full text searching enabled. I was able to build and even re-build the index. However, when I try to query it like this:

Select * from fulltext_english
WHERE CONTAINS(page_data, 'causes')

I get this error:

Msg 7619, Level 16, State 1, Line 1 The execution of a full-text query failed. "The specified module could not be found."

Did I miss something on the install? Is this a dll issue? I've googled and binged for days and can't find anything similar to this message.

Thanks!

Answer 1

It turned out to be configuration setting issue.

When defining the column to index in the table, the "Language for Word Breaker" was set to null. I set it to "English" and the index started rebuilding on its own.
