FULLTEXT and MySQL 4.0

[Joel Hughes]

Hi,
I'm having a minor issuette with full text searching in MYSQL (version 4.0.23).

I have added fulltext index onto the columns I want


FULLTEXT KEY `search` (`articles_titletext`,`articles_text`),


However, when I run a query such as

select * from articles where match(articles_text) against ('{search term}');

I get...

Can't find FULLTEXT index matching the column list


Now, the index is there fine, I can see it when I describe the table.

Any ideas where the problem lies?

thanks
