Sql Search stuck on "Indexing"

tommorath

I just installed SQL Search. I am using SQL Server Management Studio v17.6 and am searching for a single table in a single SQL Server 2014 database.  It runs Indexing for a very long time and eventually fails.  There are quite a few tables in our database but that's exactly why a utility like this would be useful to us.

Hello,

Sorry to hear that SQL Search isn't performing for you as it should. To help us fix this, please could you tell us which version of SQL Search you have installed? You can find this out by opening SQL Search, clicking on the Help menu in the top-right corner and then clicking About.

Thanks,

Thank for getting back to me James, I am using Version 3.0.7.1683 of SQL Search.  I tried it again and it seems to be working now.  Is there some first time setup that takes a long time to complete?

Hi, I have the latest version of SQL Search installed and it still get stuck on indexing, even if i narrow it down to one DB. I recently re-installed the tool on a new pc, it used to work on the old pc that has a older version of sql search(2.1.0.98), I got mangement studio 12.0.200.8  on a SQL server 2014 db.
