SQL Server. Error While Restoring Database
Nov 20, 2004
I m a student and i m doing a project on Datamining. I have to mine data of a company. the issue is that the company uses Microsoft SQL server as there DBMS. they backed up there data and gave it to me with schema (schema is separate and data backup is a backup generated through the backup option in SQL server Enterprise Manager). Now i created tables through query analyzer (i think) and then through enterprise manager i tried to restore that backup on my personal pc and i get an error .

Hi,
I have one backup file of one database, I want to restore the database to server using that backup file. But when I tried to restore the database using that backup file, the query executed successfully, but in management studio at the database it is showing the message like 'Restoring the database'. The database i am trying to restore is about 2.71gb memory. I executed the query 4hrs back but still it is showing same message that it is getting restored. Why it is showing like this. Please help me to solve this problem.
The query i used to restore the database is -
'RESTORE DATABASE [Everydayonline]
FROM DISK = N'D:BOOKSEverydayBackUp'
WITH
NORECOVERY,
NOUNLOAD,
STATS = 10,
MOVE 'ASPNETDB_983ed943e1fe49e3ae7fa189b823b238_DAT' TO 'D:SQLEverydayOnline.mdf',
MOVE 'ASPNETDB_TMP_log' TO 'D:SQLEverydayOnline_log.ldf'
GO'

If I perform a restore of the first one there is no problem, but, when i try to restore the second o third database i get the following error:

When attempting to restore a database, I get the following error:
'Cannot open backup device, (filename).bak, Operating system error 5, access is denied.'
I get similar errors when attempting to attach the database file, it shows up in the Mngt. Tool as 'read only'.
This error does not occur when restoring the same .bak file to other pc's. On the problem pc, we have completely uninstalled and reinstalled Sql Express and Mngt. Tool Express. It occurs whether logged in as full administrator or other user.

Hi all.
I was just restoring one database and creating another concurrently on the same server. The restore took longer than the create due to the respective sizes.
After the create had finished (done in Query Analyzer) I went back to the restore to see how it was getting on (running in Enterprise Manager).
There was an error (which I didn't record exactly - DOH!) along the lines of "could not obtain a lock on the model database, restore terminating abnormally."
I guess the create had model locked while it was creating the default objects, but what was a *restore* doing needing the model database anyway?
Any comments would be interesting.

I backup a database at the begining of each month with a full and then do nightly diffs on it.
For the same database I run daily fulls and 10 minute log backups.
these two backups create / append to two different backup files.
The problem im having is that I cant restore the Differential backup set. SQL seems to restore the full just fine but alwasy throws an error when its about to start to retore the last diff. now forgive me but I clicked OK on the message and I cant find any record of the error in the logs but its something like:
"SQL cannot restore the database as the database has not been restored to the previous correct state"
is my 10 min TS log backups screwing up the DIff chain somehow?
this is really doing my head in. any help appreciated.

I did tried the encryption on server "A" for database "AdventureWorks2012". Then I tried to restore to server "B". There was the certificate issue, and I thought "of course : it's encrypted ! Let's deactivate it". So here I go "ALTER DATABASE AdventureWorks2012 SET ENCYRPTION OFF".I look at sys.databases : not encrypted.I backup using no encryption, I verify using msdb.dbo.backupset : not encrypted.
I move my backup to my other server where encryption was never configured (so no certificate, nothing...), and I have the error :
Msg 33111, Level 16, State 3, Line 1
Cannot find server certificate with thumbprint '0xFA130E58C999C4919B8975999C83A75A403B11D8'.

I want to restore a database (from an encrypted .bak file) - but *not* over the live original if you take my meaning. Encryption is the standard AES-256 that comes with Sql Server 2014 btw. I don't want the original touched/altered in any way. I would like to capture a success message if possible.I can extract the physical device name of the database in question using the following code:
SELECT physical_device_name, *
FROM msdb.dbo.backupmediafamily
WHERE media_set_id =(SELECT TOP 1 media_set_id
FROM msdb.dbo.backupset
WHERE database_name='MyDatabase'
AND type='D'
ORDER BY backup_start_date DESC)
I would like if the newly restored database was rename to something different than 'MyDatabase' (as shown above) and has different logs than the original. If possible, and capture a success message when restored.

I did a full backup of a db from one server(Express2005) and trying to restore it to a different instance of SQL2005 on the same development machine. (Also had some fulltext columns if that means anything)
Many failures but finally got it to report all was successful except the icon in Object Explorer shows (Restoring...) with no indication of any real activity going on. It's a tiny database with hardly any data in it.
Just not sure what the heck is going on there. It also won't let me into the database until this the (Restoring...) goes away.
Any advice on how to get this thing finished out?

I have two servers (same config) I am trying to restore a database that I backed up on one server to the other. The method I used was as follows: I backed up the database to disk.
Copied to the Disk of the second server.
When I try to restore I get the following message.
"The backup set holds a backup of a database other than the existing "database name" database.
What am I doing wrong?

Hi!
I attempted to backup a database on server x and restore it on a database on server y. The details are as follows.
Server X
Database name : dbx
Size :263.88MB (Unrestricted filegrowth option set)
Logical files : dbx_data, dbx_log
Physical files : e:mssql7datadbx_data.mdf, f:databaselogsdbx_log.ldf
Server Y
Database name : dby
Size :1MB (Unrestricted filegrowth option set)
Logical files : dby_data, dby_log
Physical files : d:mssql7datadby_data.mdf, d:mssql7datadby_log.ldf
I created a full database backup of dbx on server x at the location, f:ackupsdbx_083099_10.30AM. The size of the file is 272MB. I zipped the file. Copied the file, dbx_083099_10.30AM.xip over to d:ackups of server y. I unzipped the file at server y to the location, d:ackupsdbx_083099_10.30AMdbx_083099_10.30AM.
I now tried to restore this backup on server y using the statement,
restore database dby from disk = 'd:ackupsdbx_083099_10.30AMdbx_083099_10.30AM
with replace,
move 'dbx_data' to 'd:mssql7datadby_data.mdf',
move 'dbx_log' to 'd:mssql7datadby_log.ldf'
I get the following errors :
Server: Msg 3257, Level 16, State 1, Line 1
There is insufficient free space on disk volume 'd:' to create the database. The database requires 3219128320 additional free bytes, while only 2047102976 bytes are available.
Server: Msg 3013, Level 16, State 1, Line 1
Backup or restore operation terminating abnormally.
Error log shows,
1999-08-30 10:28:54.68 kernel BackupDiskFile::OpenMedia: Backup device 'd:ackupdbx_083099_10.30AMdbx_083099_10.30AM' failed to open. Operating system error = 1326(Logon failure: unknown user name or bad password.).
(or)

How can I solve this problem ?

suppose we are restoring the database to a new server, the logins are getting created.
So when an user want to login to this new database , what ever he used before to getinto that database should have to use the same password.??
So when we restore a database only, tables , logins are created, or what are the other things getting craeted like stored proc, jobs???
thanks in advance

Hi Guru's,
Please assist,
I have a backup copy of my database from the old server but now when I restore it on the new sever these are the steps I used:
I created the new db on the new server then gave it the same name as the database that I backed up the restored
but now when i check it's got system tables rather then user tables
where did I go wrong?
Thanx.

Hello everyone.
Pretty new to SQL Server and i've run into some trouble with something I am attempting to do.
Basically, we imported one of our databases on one of our SQL Servers to a new sql server that we just setup. That went ok with no problems. The DB is now in the new SQL Server.
Now, we need to copy the contents of a second DB from the original server into this new sql server DB. For reference:
We imported a DB Called: siebeldb
We want to import/overwrite another DB into that same DB. We backedup the DB and moved the file to the new SQL server.
So:
Import/Restore: sbprd01(a backup file) into siebeldb
I hope that makes sense.
I have the following command that I am trying to execute in the SQL Query analyzer:
RESTORE DATABASE siebeldb
FROM DISK='C:Documents and SettingsAdministratorDesktopsiebelprddb092509.bak'
WITH MOVE 'siebelprddb_Data'
TO 'C:Program FilesMicrosoft SQL ServerMSSQLDatasiebeldb_Data.mdf',
MOVE 'siebelprddb_Log'
TO 'C:Program FilesMicrosoft SQL ServerMSSQLDatasiebeldb_Log.mdf',
REPLACE
It is running right now, but seems to be running into errors. I just added the 'REPLACE' option according to the t-sql reference guide.
Does my script look ok? Am I doing anything wrong?
Thanks,.

if you can restore a database to Server B using Server A as the service. Meaning we would issue the command on Server A but somehow point to Server B as where we want the restore to happen.
The backup file would be in a location independent of both servers.

I have clustered SQL server machines(SSserver1 and SSserver2). I need to restore a database from another standalone server to this clustered environment. In this case do I need to restore the DB on both the nodes that are part of the clustering(SSserver1 and SSserver2) or Just can I do it on one of them?

If I restore a SQL 2000 DB into 2005 it upgrades it for me.
When restoring a DB to a new server/instance of SQL, in SQL 2000 I had to carry out the sp_changedbowner procedure after the restore was complete.
Is the equivalent procedure when restoring a SQL 2000 DB to 2005 to go to the schema for the restored database, find the schema with the name of the SQL 2000 db owner and change the schema owner?
OR alternatively run the following query where mark is the db owner in 2000 and lladmin in the new user in 2005 ;
ALTER AUTHORIZATION ON SCHEMA::mark TO lladmin;

Hi!
I'm a beginner w ith SQL Express and am having some problems. I am using 2005 SP1 and installed the SQL Server Management Studio Express as well. I have a backup from a SQL Server 7.0 database that I am trying to restore into my database using the management studio. When I try to restore from the file into my database, I get the error,
System.Data.SqlClient.SqlError: The backup of the system database on the device D:GMBeta2Local.bak cannot be restored because it was created by a different version of the server (7.00.1063) than this server (9.00.3033). (Microsoft.SqlServer.Express.Smo)
Is this true? Is there any way for me to get this data into my SQL Server 2005 express on my laptop?

Dear All,
I am experiencing a problem that, after i have made a backup database file in SQL Server version (9.00.1090), when i restore the database in a newer SQL Server 2005 version(9.00.1399), an error occurs.
The error is:
Restore failed for Server 'demo'. (Microsoft.SqlServer.Smo)
Additional information:
System.Data.SqlClient.SqlError: The database was backed up on a server running version 9.00.1090. That version is incompatible with this server, which is running version 9.00.1399. Either restore the database on a server that supports the backup, or use a backup that is compatible with this server. (Microsoft.SqlServer.Smo)
Anyone can tell me how i could fix this?
Why would it happen?
Thank you very much
Regards,
George

I am moving a database from one server to another. I am going to replace the old server to the new one. I heard that you can move the datfiles and put them in the same directory, and sql server will pickup the datafiles based on the system tables. Is this possible, and what are the steps to get this to work. Thanks for the help in advance.

Hi All,
I have an issue that's stopping me restoring a database on SQL Server Express 2005 running under Windows Vista. I'm installing a system that I've used several times before on other systems and part of the installation procedure is to use the 'restore' function to install a database from a backup file. So I'm essentially restoring but to a db that doesn't yet exist in my SQL Server, this normally goes without a hitch. However on attempting this on a Vista system, I get the following error message -
System.Data.SqlClient.SqlError: The operating system returned the error '5(error not found)' while attempting 'RestoreContainer::ValidateTargetForCreation' on 'c:Program FilesMicrosoft SQL ServerMSSQL.1MSSQLiCasework.mdf'. (Microsoft.SqlServer.Express.Smo)
where iCasework is the name I've given in the restore dialogue as the DB to restore to (which as I said, doesn't exist at the moment).
Things I've tried so far: -
I have a feeling this is down to a permissions problem, so I've tried the following already
1) Running Management Studio Express as Administrator - exact same error message
2) During the initial install, I set up the default admin user to use SQL Server authentication, having read threads about vaguely similar errors I used the Surface Area Config tool to add my windows login as an admin with admin rights and tried connecting to the Server with those credentials then running the restore - exact same error message
and
3) I also tried manually creating an empty db called iCasework and then restoring the external backup into that existing backup, which just gave a different error stating that the backup file didn't match the structure of the existing db. I could create the whole db structure manually but that would entirely negate the purpose of restoring from the backup and, more to the point, has never been necessary on any other system we've done this one.
Has anyone got any ideas that I could try next please?

While doing the restore of the database is it better to copy the backup file locally and restore or restore from the network path is good option?
