Failed to verify Authenticode signature on DLL ftimport.dll

  • Hi,

    I receive the following error when I start up my 2 new SQL Server 2012 instances:

    "Failed to verify Authenticode signature on DLL 'D:\Program Files\Microsoft SQL Server\MSSQL11.R8QA\MSSQL\Binn\ftimport.dll'."

    This dll does not exist on the server and a look around Google has not enlightened me as to why this is occurring. Apart from a regular installation of SQL Server Standard Edition, I have only installed the Microsoft JDBC drivers. Full version is as follows:

    Microsoft SQL Server 2012 - 11.0.5058.0 (X64)

    May 14 2014 18:34:29

    Copyright (c) Microsoft Corporation

    Standard Edition (64-bit) on Windows NT 6.3 <X64> (Build 9600: ) (Hypervisor)

    Does anyone has an idea of the significance of the message?

    Thanks,

    Shane

  • From what I can tell, that's a DLL used for the Full Text Search engine. Did you install that as part of the instance installation?

    If not and if the instance is otherwise fine, I wouldn't worry about it. If you did install the full text search, you may have issues with that feature.

  • Thanks very much Brian,

    I did not install Full Text in either instance. The dll name had me a bit concerned.

    This seems to confirm what you said

    Regards,

    Shane
