I've created numerous kb articles, when I go to the article search nothing
ever shows.
Only if search by the article number or just list from subjects then the
articles appear.

The articles have already been approved. I have full rights/permissions.
I've checked to see that MSSearch is running in the services on the server.
I've also waited the full 15-30 mins for the articles to show.

Any ideas with whatâ??s occurring here?

Have the articles been published?

Yes, the articles have been approved and published.

I had the same issue. What I discovered is indexing wasn't enabled in SQL
itself. Once I enabled Full Text Indexing in SQL (and specified Full Text
Index on the DocumentIndex table), it worked great! This was on SQL 2005 by
the way - not sure if 2000 works exactly the same.

Hope this helps.

Yes, that was exactly the problem. Between your answer and the one found on
Ron Lemmen's blog
(http://ronaldlemmen.blogspot.com/2005/07/full-text-search-is-not-enabled-for.html) I managed to get the indexing set in SQL.

Thanks
