To run the sample MSDN walkthrough samples, e.g.http://msdn.microsoft.com/en-us/library/bb470363.aspx,
I have installed the new Microsoft database, AdventureWorks2008R2. Yesterday, our system admin showed
me an error on this database. The ASP.NET 4.0 website has a LinqDataSource and a GridView control.
I don't remember I coded any FullText searching on any ASP.NET web sites. Reviewing the database on SQL
Server Management Studio showed the AW2008FullTextCatalog in the Storage folder.
How was the AW2008FullTextCatalog created? Can I delete it?*******************************************************************************
The error in the Event Viewer logs.Event Type: Error
Description: A fatal error occurred during a full-text population and caused the population to be cancelled. Population type is: FULL; database name is AdventureWorks2008R2 (id: 30); catalog name is AW2008FullTextCatalog (id: 5); table name JobCandidate (id: 1333579789). Fix the errors that are logged in the full-text crawl log. Then, resume the population. The basic Transact-SQL syntax for this is: ALTER FULLTEXT INDEX ON table_name RESUME POPULATION.Jeffrey

It seems your FTS catalog population stopped by some issue.
1) Check FTS services is runing or not
2) Try to rebuild catalog by - ALTER FULLTEXT CATALOG ftCatalog REBUILD

Just learned that it requires FullText feature in order to install the AdventureWorks2008R2 database.
In fact, I do not need to use FullText feature for my ASP.NET 4 web sites. Therefore, I just deleted
the AW2008FullTextCatalog.
We are still using the Windows Server 2003. Is this the reason for this FullText error with the
AdventureWorks2008R2 database? We will upgrade to Windows 2008 soon. In other words,
we should not use AdventureWorks2008R2 on Windows Server 2003!?Jeffrey
