Sql Server 2008 Full-Text Search
Hi,
 
Full-text search worked great on Sql Server 2005. However, Microsoft seems to have messed it up in Sql Server 2008. It seems to work, but it is often unbearably slow with DSC. Is there any fix or workaround for this?

Re: Sql Server 2008 Full-Text Search
Your observation is absolutely right. The new Full-text search in SQL server 2008 is having problems generating the good query plans. The major issue was full-text search involved with the multiple tables joins. We found the workaround is to use UNIONs rather than JOINs. The new version DotShoppingCart V3.1 has the workaround in place. You can either migrate to V3.1 or just fix the several search sprocs (check MigrateV3.0ToV3.1.sql).

Go to the order detail page and download the V3.1 DoShoppingCart Suite. After you unzip the package, you should find the migration script in the migration subfolder. Find the search sprocs and apply those to your SQL server.
