I'm working on a document storage. Therefore I plan to use SqlServer 2012 with file tables. Now after some tests it seems like the SqlServer only indexes doc and not docx files.
I also installed the Microsoft Filter Pack 2.0.
Does somebody know how to get a docx support ? Perhaps there wold also be a way to get pdf support ??
Many Thanks in advance Boas
Finally someone posted me the solution. I post the solution to my own question because i think someone may have similar problems
Install the Microsoft Filter Pack 2.0
than
EXEC sp_fulltext_service 'update_languages';
EXEC sp_fulltext_service 'load_os_resources', 1;
EXEC sp_fulltext_service 'restart_all_fdhosts';
After installing the filters, run this to refresh the list. EXEC sp_fulltext_service 'update_languages';
You will also likely need to refresh the filters and restart the FTS service launcher: EXEC sp_fulltext_service 'load_os_resources', 1; EXEC sp_fulltext_service 'restart_all_fdhosts';
Finally, you’ll need to do a complete rebuild/refresh of any existing full-text indexes (see ALTER FULLTEXT INDEX) to use the new filters.
