I have this problem when I dumped 10 tables to a new-created-dump device.
I dropped the tables and recreated it with the same layout as before.
When i try to load the tables again eith the command "load table from dumdevice" the first table works fine but the second table gets the error message:
"Schema differs between source table......."
Where the source table according to the eroor message is the first table that
I sucessfully loaded though I didn`t mentioned it in the command.
What can I do, Am I not allowed to dump several tables to the same dumpdevice !!!
A client recently changed his sort order and character set definitions. He is now unable to restore any of his tables. Prior to making the change he carried out the following steps; 1. Printed out the schema(scripts) for each database, 2. BCP`d all data out of SQL.
He the proceeded to make the change (via SQL Setup, rebuild master database option), then he recreated each device (data and log), recreated each database (data and log), ran each schema to rebuild each database (structure, views, etc) and then BCP`d all data back into databases.
He has been doing a full backup everyday since. He needs to restore a table but when he does so SQL reports that the schema is different between source and destination, no changes have been made.
I think I am getting a similar problem to a previous post, I get this message when restoring a SQL 2005 DB.
Msg 3132, Level 16, State 1, Line 1 The media set has 2 media families but only 1 are provided. All members must be provided. Msg 3013, Level 16, State 1, Line 1 RESTORE DATABASE is terminating abnormally.
It was backed up using whatever tool is in the full version of Server 2005. I only have the express edition and to restore I have run the filelistonly to find the logical file name. I then run a query like:
restore database new name from disk ='file location and name' with move 'logical file name for mdf' to 'new location', move 'logical file for ldf' to 'new location'
I have done this many times before with both 2000 and 2005, although the backup is usually done on command backup database 'database name' to disk ='location and name'.
Hello, I am taking the error message which is in the below side,while restoring a database.(I am using sql server 2005) The backup set holds a backup of a database other than the existing 'db1' database. (db1 is the database name.) Can you help me?
I need to move a database from one server to a new server. Right now, I only have database file on CD which is generated using the backup feature of MS SQL server.
What I did was I copied the file from CD to the harddisk of the new server. Then I used the restore database, restore from disk, where I specified the location of the backup database file. When I began to restore, the error message I got was: The file 'e:MSSQL7dataGTCSQL_data.mdf cannot be used by RESTORE. Consider using the WITH MOVE option to identify a valid location for the file. Backup or restore operation terminating abnormally.
The error message in the error.log of SQL server is: BackupFileDesc::VerifyCreatability: Operating system error 3(The system cannot find the path specified.) during the creation/opening of physical device e:MSSQL7DATAGTCIntranetSQL_dat.mdf.
What did I do wrong? How to use the WITH MOVE option? This is the first time I use MS SQL server. So please give me detailed instruction if posible.
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'
I did the full backup of .7 TB database about 2 weeks ago and did full restore with norecovery mode and then i did differential backup of about 100 gb and tried to restore but it is showing following error : System.Data.SqlClient.SqlError: This differential backup cannot be restored because the database has not been restored to the correct earlier state. (Microsoft.SqlServer.Smo)
While restoring the files are different than original database files
I have a phisical device called 'respaldo.bak' inside this file there are three backups of three different databases, The first one is database called 'innovasoft' the second one is 'modelo_de_datos' and the last one is 'Inversiones'.
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:

I have to say that i want to restore the database with a different name that's why in the error says 'PROBANDO' , i'm really concern about this problem because it means that i have no backups for my data. I used to use this procedure on sql server 2000 every single day without problems, but on sql server 2005 it doesn't work properly.
I am trying to restore a file from a file/filegroup backup from our live server to a test machine but keep getting the following error:
The supplied backup is not on the same recovery path as the database, and is ineligible for use for an online file restore.
The location of the files on the live server are different to where they will be on the test machine but from my understanding of the restore t-sql i thought it the move would locate them to where they should be? here is my restore command i am running:
RESTORE DATABASE TestDB
FILE = 'File1'
,file ='File2'
,file ='File3'
,file ='File4'
,file ='File5'
,file ='File6'
FROM disk = 'C:Program FilesMicrosoft SQL ServerMSSQL.1MSSQLBackupFileGroup.bak'
WITH norecovery,
MOVE 'File1' TO 'C:sqlarchivesFile1.ndf' ,
MOVE 'File2' TO 'C:sqlarchivesFile2.ndf' ,
MOVE 'File3' TO 'C:sqlarchivesFile3.ndf' ,
MOVE 'File4' TO 'C:sqlarchivesFile4.ndf' ,
MOVE 'File5' TO 'C:sqlarchivesFile5.ndf' ,
MOVE 'File6' TO 'C:sqlarchivesFile6.ndf',
I can not find any info about this error i am getting, can anyone point me in the direction of where to try and troubleshoot this message please?
I need to archive a database and restore it on the same server but under a different databasename. I first backup the database using SMO, now i want to restore it with the code below:
[code]
Private Sub RestoreDataBase(ByVal BackupFilePath As String, ByVal destinationDatabaseName As String, ByVal DatabaseFolder As String, ByVal DatabaseFileName As String, ByVal DatabaseLogFileName As String)
Dim myServer As New Server(My.Settings.SQLServer)
Dim myRestore As New Restore()
myRestore.Database = destinationDatabaseName
Dim currentDb As Database = myServer.Databases(destinationDatabaseName)
When the program reaches the red line, he throws the following error:
Restore failed for Server 'NB_DELL_JWOSQLEXPRESS'.
System.Data.SqlClient.SqlError: Logical file 'TMP_MIXix_20080129.' is not part of database 'TMP_MIXix_20080129.'. Use RESTORE FILELISTONLY to list the logical file names.
The originale databasename is MIXix and I take a complete backup of it using the code below (WORKS): [code]
Sub BackupDB(ByVal Filename As String)
Dim srv As New Server(My.Settings.SQLServer)
Dim bk As New Backup
Dim bdi As New BackupDeviceItem(Filename, DeviceType.File)
bk.Action = BackupActionType.Database
bk.BackupSetDescription = "Full backup of " & My.Settings.Catalog
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.
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?
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 . the image is attached see the image for the error http://img.photobucket.com/albums/v54/kaboomagic/error.jpg

any ideas?
this is actually a restore from a BAK file saved from the live server. we copied the bak file over and placed it on the test server hard drive, now we are trying to restore this using SSMS
Hi experts! I am using SQL Server 2005. while restoring a database. I got following error:
" An exception occured while executing a Transct-SQL statement or batch. (Microsoft.SqlServer.ConnectionInfo) Additional Information: Too many backup devices specified for backup or restore; only 64 are allowed. RESTORE HEADERONLY is terminating abnormally. (Microsoft SQL Server, Error:3205 ) "
I have scheduled a database backup at 9 pm and 5 Transaction Log backups. The transaction Log backups happen at 11 am, 1 pm, 3 pm and 5 pm (device does not get initialized) and one at 11 pm where i initialize the backup device. now i have another server with the same database on it. I restore these backups on to this server by simple copying the files and then doing Restore ...From Device...Add file...option. I am able to restore the DB backup but when i try to restore the log backups it get the error msg -
'Specified file 'G:...' is out of sequence. current time stamp is Feb 9 2000 3:54 pm while dump was from Feb 9 2000 3 pm.'
When i am restoring the logs i start from the 1st backup buyt still i get this error. Can someone pls let me know what the problem is and how to resolve it. Thanks.
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 have backup of data from SQL Server 7.0 and now when i'm trying to restore it into SQL Express 2005, I'm getting following error......
-------------------- Msg 3154, Level 16, State 2, Line 1 The backup set holds a backup of a database other than the existing 'GOSLDW' database. Msg 3013, Level 16, State 1, Line 1 RESTORE DATABASE is terminating abnormally. --------------------
Here is SQL i'm using to restore database,
RESTORE DATABASE GOSLDW FROM DISK = 'C:sqlserverDataGOSLDW' WITH MOVE 'GOSLDW' TO 'C:sqlserverDataGOSLDW.mdf', MOVE 'GOSLDW' TO 'C:sqlserverDataGOSLDW.ldf' GO
Why i'm getting this error? Am i missing anything here?
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.
When using Enterprise Manager, Right Clicking on any table in the db, selecting OPEN TABLE, and choosing either Return all rows or Return Top... I recieve this error "The query cannot be executed because some files are missing or not registered. Run setup again to make sure the required files are registered."
I am running: SQL Server 7.0 Client with Windows 2000.
I have run setup again and the same thing still happenes. I even uninstalled and reinstalled SQL Server, still the same thing occures.
I first installed SQL Server7.0 on my machine about a month and a half ago and all was fine until two weeks ago, then this started happening. SQL Server was the last thing I have installed on this machine so it cannot be a new install conflict. I can't think of any reason for this to be happening out of the blue like it did.
I have such a problem:i try to update a row in my table using: protected void selectButton_Click(object sender, EventArgs e) { String taskID = projectsGridView.SelectedRow.Cells[0].Text; usersSqlDataSource.UpdateCommand = "update [Users] set [TaskID]=@task where [UserID]=1"; usersSqlDataSource.UpdateParameters.Add("task", taskID); usersSqlDataSource.Update(); }And i receive error on usersSqlDataSource.Update():You have specified that your update command compares all values on SqlDataSource 'usersSqlDataSource', but the dictionary passed in for oldValues is emptyWhat have i done wrong? Parameter are not set?
While dumping several tables into the same Backup device, I got this error message in the Log :
dbsvolopen: Backup device 'E:BACKPANBackUp_Of_Focus_Tables.DAT' failed to open, operating system error = 32(The process cannot access the file because it is being used by another process.)
There is no other process using this device running at the same time.
everytime i go to open tables in enterprise manager, i right click the table and then select open all of it. however, i was gone from work for a week, and when i came back i got an error message when i did this. it is as follows:
An unexpected error happened during this operation.
[Query]-Query Designer encountered a Query error: Unspecified error.
I dont know what to do. all i can think of is rebooting the computer, but it is the LIVE databases for webpages. please help me!
I have a standard reorganise/reindex job running against a 32GB database on SQl Srever 2000. When trying to run the job it fails and returns Error 1105 <'PRIMARY' filegroup is full>. What's confusing me is that I have 53GB free on the drive on which my Primary file group sits.
Has anyone else come accross this problem when trying to set up a regular reindex job?
(more detail) the maintenance plan only includes the reorganisation/reindex job, no other jobs - including backing up the DB - are included. The DB in question is the only DB on the server: it's a test server.
I am trying to pull in columns from multiple tables but am getting an error when I run the code:
Msg 4104, Level 16, State 1, Line 1
The multi-part identifier "a.BOC" could not be bound.
I am guessing that my syntax is completely off.
SELECT b.[PBCat] ,c.[VISN] --- I am trying to pull in the Column [VISN] from the Table [DIMSTA]. Current Status: --Failure ,a.[Station] ,a.[Facility] ,a.[CC] ,a.[Office]
I need to bring over a large number of tables' records (200+ tables) with the Import/Export Wizard. The tables are being imported from MS Access. A separate script run previously will create the tables, so the DTS wizard is only to bring over the data from the Access tables into the empty SQL ones.
First, I get the warning that indicates "a large number of tables are selected for copying, and the wizard may not be able to copy all the tables in a session. Select no to go back and unselect some tables, or select Yes to attempt to copy all the currently selected tables at one time".
Well, I proceed with the DTS and it tries to validate and takes a fair bit, but then it errors indicating:
"Error 0xc0202009: {2F0FABA0-5F4B-4310-97C0-76EA19893547}: An OLE DB error has occurred. Error code: 0x80004005. An OLE DB record is available. Source: "Microsoft JET Database Engine" Hresult: 0x80004005 Description: "Unspecified error". (SQL Server Import and Export Wizard)"
Can anyone shed any light on why I receive an "unspecified error" when tring to DTS a larger number of tables. It does not error, if I import 40 or so tables.
I am facing a peculier problem. Problem definition goes like this,
I have one staging DB in which all the tables resides in Primary file and one production DB in which tables resides in 2 secondary files.
Now when iam trying to load the data from the table A in staging which is on primary file to the table A1 in production DB which in secondary file, all the data are going to error log instead of table A1.
