Bug #: 404955 (SQLBUDT)



SYMPTOMS
You add the full-text search service to an existing instance of Microsoft SQL Server 2005 Community Technology Preview (CTP) 16 by using one of the following methods:
 * Microsoft Office Maintenance Mode
 * An upgrade installation of the full-text search service that is taken from an edition of SQL Server 2005 that is not SQL Server 2005 CTP.

When you do this, the full-text search service does not run under the domain account that is specified for SQL Server 2005 CTP.



CAUSE
This issue occurs because the full-text search service is installing under the LocalSystem account. However, SQL Server 2005 CTP is configured to use a non-LocalSystem account.



RESOLUTION
To resolve this issue, you must change the full-text search service account after you have installed the full-text search service.

To change the full-text search service account, follow these steps:
 * 1) On the Start menu, point to Programs, click Microsoft SQL Server 2005 CTP, click Configuration Tools, and then click SQL Server Configuration Manager.
 * 2) Right-click the Full Text Search service.
 * 3) Select Properties.
 * 4) Type the new account information.



STATUS
Microsoft has confirmed that this is a bug in the Microsoft products that are listed in the &quot;Applies to&quot; section.



Steps to reproduce the behavior

 * 1) Set up SQL Server 2005 September CTP to use a non-LocalSystem account.
 * 2) Create a database.
 * 3) Use Add/Remove Programs to install the full-text search service.

Expected result

You expect the full-text search service to install by using the correct domain account.

Actual result

The full-text search service installs by using the incorrect domain account.
