Problem In Restoring A Backup In A Different Database
Aug 27, 2000
HI everybody,
I hv taken a backup of 'pubs' DB both 'full backup' and 'differential backup', and I have created a new DB called 'TEST'. Now I want to restore the 'pubs' db's backup files into 'TEST' DB(Full backup followed by Differential Backup).
I want to do this in 'T-SQL' not through 'Enterprise Manager'. The following is the command I have given,
"restore database test from pubs_backup with norecovery,file=5,replace"
Error:
======
Server: Msg 4038, Level 16, State 1, Line 1
Cannot find file ID 5 on device 'pubs_backup'.
Server: Msg 3013, Level 16, State 1, Line 1
Backup or restore operation terminating abnormally.
Can anyone please help me to solve this.
tks in advance

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'.
Msg 3013, Level 16, State 1, Line 1
RESTORE DATABASE is terminating abnormally.

Hi all,
My question is:
If I need to restore a database when all I have is the backup file, do I need to recreate all the tables, or is it possible to restore into a new database ?
Is it possible to restore a sql server 2000 database into a sql server 2005 database ?
Thanks in advance.

I am trying to replicate a client's environment on my home development machine in order to develop some reports. At the client (SQL 6.5) I did a complete backup to a .dat file. How can I restore from this file into my home (SQL 7) server to create a duplicate database?? I tried restoring from a device, specified the file, but I get an "not a valid tape format ....." error. Help!

I am in the process of moving a database to a new location. My problem is that I do not have the most recent full backup file. I have a previous full backup file and I also have all of the transaction log backups from the time of the old backup to the present time.
My question is, do I need the most recent backup to restore the database, or can I do it with the older backup plus the transaction log backups?
Thanks in advance.

I am needing to restore a SQL server 7 database. I had a backup, but the media it was on has failed. I have copies of the folder the original database was in (.mdf files and such), but I was wondering if there is a way to re-integrate these files in order to pick up where we left off. Thank you.

Hello,
Every hour I make a backup of the log files of a database to a backup device. Each backup is appended to this backup device.
Now to restore at a point in time I normally use the following script;
RESTORE DATABASE mcs_carolus
FROM disk='E:sqlserver_databasesmcs_carolus_data.bak'
WITH REPLACE,
NORECOVERY
go
RESTORE LOG MCS_CAROLUS
FROM disk='E:sqlserver_databasesmcs_carolus_log.bak'
WITH FILE = 1, NORECOVERY
GO
RESTORE LOG MCS_CAROLUS
FROM disk='E:sqlserver_databasesmcs_carolus_log.bak'
WITH FILE = 2, NORECOVERY
GO
RESTORE LOG MCS_CAROLUS
FROM disk='E:sqlserver_databasesmcs_carolus_log.bak'
WITH FILE = 3, NORECOVERY
GO
RESTORE LOG MCS_CAROLUS
FROM disk='E:sqlserver_databasesmcs_carolus_log.bak'
WITH FILE = 4, NORECOVERY
GO
RESTORE LOG MCS_CAROLUS
FROM disk='E:sqlserver_databasesmcs_carolus_log.bak'
WITH FILE = 5, NORECOVERY
GO
RESTORE LOG MCS_CAROLUS
FROM disk='E:sqlserver_databasesmcs_carolus_log.bak'
WITH FILE = 6, NORECOVERY
GO
RESTORE LOG MCS_CAROLUS
FROM disk='E:sqlserver_databasesmcs_carolus_log.bak'
WITH FILE = 7, RECOVERY,STOPAT = 'Nov 25, 2004 11:59 AM'
Is there a simpler way of restoring without going through this long process.
Regards,
Albert

When performing a tail log backup to an online database through SSMS, the database is placed in restoring state. Is there a proper procedure to take the database out of restoring state after the backup is completed?

Is it possible to read some data from MS SQL 2000 backup file without restoring? If yes then please let me know how?

I have a Subscriber database updated using transactional
replication and want to create a copy for development & testing. The Distribution database is running on the
same 2005 instance as the Subscriber and the Publication database on another
server running SQL Server 2005.
If I use a TSQL script to run the restore, the database is
restored to a usable state but I get the following messages:
Msg 15247, Level 16, State 1, Procedure
sp_MSrepl_check_job_access, Line 112
User does not have permission to perform this action.
The replication agent job [job name] was not removed because
it has a non-standard name; manually remove the job when it is no longer in use.
(I€™ve removed the job name from the message)
RESTORE DATABASE successfully processed 46219 pages in
935.413 seconds (0.404 MB/sec).
It looks like an attempt is being made to restore
replication information too. I note that
the RESTORE statement has a KEEP_REPLICATION options which implies (I would have
thought) that by default the replication information is not be restored.
Incidentally, before implementing replication, backing up
the live database and restoring the backup to a new database took < 7
minutes but running the same process with a Subscriber database backup takes
about 15 minutes.
I€™d be interested to know if anyone has any idea what I€™m
overlooking or doing wrong.
ThanksTim

I am backing up a database as follows:
backup database PPLicense to disk = 'D:License.bak'
I have run this 5 times. If I know run this command:
restore headeronly from disk = 'D:License.bak'
I can see 5 entries returned this all looks good. In SQL Management studio I try and restore this database by selecting the file. The Restore Database dialog only shows the last backup set position i.e. position 5 and now the 4 before it. Why is this not showing the 4 previous backups?
I am using SQL Server 2012 SP 2 (Version 11.0.3460).

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?

Hi Everyone, I was prototyping a DB and made a backup of all the files in the data directory of sql server, thinking that I would be able to restore the system from another installation when I made it to the US. I have the cd with the archives on and a full backup of the DB I want but I have no idea how to get sql server to initialise it.
Any ideas???

I used backup and restore to upgrade a database from sql 2000 to sql 2005. Is it necessary to create the mdf and ldf on the new server at the time of restore under options or should I copy them to the new server in the data folder? I am new and not quite sure what the log files hold.
Thanks

Hi,
I am using SQL server 2000. When I want to restore a backup database from the disk. I use the Enterprise Manager tool to restore database. From there I checked Restore database and select from the first backup to restore. Do I need to backup the transaction log after? Or this does all of it?

I want to create a database that is identical to one I currently have for testing purposes. I took a backup and tried to restore it to
another server to actually create the database. It wouldn't work, then I created the database on that server and gave it the exact
name and file layout (dbid was different) and tried to restore the backup to the newly created database. Still would not restore.
I am using SQL 7 for backkup and restore. The backup device backs up to disk on the servers. What I am doing wrong?

Hi all,
My first post on these forums and I'm hoping someone can please help me before I pull all of my hair out.
I'm currently working on the redevelopment of a website. The old one was written in ASP and we're going to totally redo the whole thing. As a lot of the content was dynamic I want to fire up the old site on my laptop to browse and pull content from. I have a backup of the entire website which I have put under a fresh IIS install. I also have a backup of the MSSQL database. I have restored this to the local machine and can view it using the SQL Server Management Studio. The problem is that I think I am having lots of trouble synching the users/permissions for it. We don't have a backup of the Master databases so I am stuck with what I can extract from the site backup and web code.
Trying to load the old index.asp I get either of these error messages quote:'Login failed for user 'Username'. The user is not associated with a trusted SQL Server connection' or 'SQL Server does not exist or access denied.' depending on how I've played with the user permissions.
Please can someone help me sort this out so that the old ASP webpages can access the DB again? I'm used to mySQL/PHP so am struggling a bit to get this going.
-Edit-
Bit more info. Here are the connection details the site uses within an ASP page.
<%
dim Conn
'---------------------Create connection------------------------------------------------------
Set Conn = Server.CreateObject("ADODB.Connection")
Conn.Open "Driver={SQL Server};Server=MYSERVER;Database=dbTest;uid=dbTestUser;pwd=testpasssql"
%>
Cheers

I used backup and restore to upgrade to sql 2005 from 2000. It went well but I didn't get the permissions change in time for the users to access the database today. The users were accessing the old server. I need to do another backup off the old server to the new server. Do I do a full backup to get the information for today's data or what? Will it restore a full backup override?

i'm trying to set up one of the asp.net website starter kits and part of the process is to backup the sql express db and then import it into the sql 2005 at the web hosting account. it's not working and i'm wondering if there's any difference between the backups they make. the sql express makes a file with a .bak extension and the sql 2005 at the host makes a file with a .sqlbak extension. i was assuming that was just a naming thing and not a structural thing but the host's tech support has said:
"This sort of thing happens when the database being imported is not properly formatted. You can try downloading and using sql express from microsoft to see if you can do it manually, but most likely you will need to save your database again properly set for import to an mssql server rather than however you did."
all i had done was rename the .bak file from express to .sqlbak as that was the choice for backup files.
i will note that it also failed importing the .mdf, which works fine locally with the site but i did make some changes to it from the original that came with the starter kit.
should a backup file made with sql express (using sql management studio express, by right clicking on the file and choosing tasks > backup) normally be importable by sql 2005?
or, i suppose, does it make sense that a db that works fine locally with sql express (within a visual web developer express project anyway) would actually be "formatted" in a way that would cause it to fail to import into sql 2005?
thanks much for any assistance.
