Problem running full text search - it's broken!

I have a 2-tier application
The top tier is a web tier (IIS/ASP) and the lower tier runs SQLServer.
This works fine for ALL database calls, except when it requires a full text
query. The error message received is:
Microsoft OLE DB Provider for SQL Server error '80040e14'
Execution of a full-text operation failed. The catalog does not exist or is
currently unavailable. Please retry the action again later and if this
symptom persists, contact the system administrator.
However...I know that the full text catalogue DOES exist on the data tier
(I've rebuilt & repopulated it).
I also have an "identical" pair of machines and it works fine on that
one... By identical, I mean all the ASP code running under IIS is the
same.
No idea what I should be checking. The ADODB connection is identical on
both machines (uses a SQL Server account with identical access permissions)
and SQLServer is running under the ADMINISTRATOR account on both servers.
Thanks
Griff
Are there any pertinent messages from MSSearch or MSSCI in the event log?

Hi Hilary
I'm afraid not. The only messages state that the catalogues were built
successfully, e.g.:
Master merge has completed on
d:\mssql\ftdata\sql0000700005\build\indexer\cifile s.
The only warning mentioned is:
SuperSocket info: (SpnRegister) : Error 1355.

|||Griff,
I think we need additional information from the server to understand why
this error OLE DB '80040e14' is being raised and that you have confirmed
that the full text catalogue DOES exist on this server. Could you set trace
flag 7300 on, you can get extended OLEDB error info?
dbcc traceon (3604, 7300)
Could you also post the exact CONTAINS* or FREETEXT* query that you're using
along with the search word or phrase, and re-run the query and post the
extended OLEDB error info?
Thanks,
John
