Restore MSSQL Database, Lost LDF-File
Oct 4, 2005
Hi.
I've following problem:
- Customer played with his logical drives in a CPQ smart array
- He played too much: he lost the drive with the LDF-File
- Now the SQL-Server is in a kind of wired mode; you can
start and stop it, but you cannot connect to (neiter 'sa' nor
any other user available before)
In fact the mode is not wired: what shall he do other when
most important file is missing... :o
- The problem for me now is:
> How can I get the Enterprise Manager or Query Analyzer
up and running again to start a restore?
PS: The restore is to be done from a tape-library running
Veritas Backup Exec + SQL-Agent
PPS: Error-log says (what I already know):
2005-10-04 17:18:02.69 spid11 Device activation error. The physical file name 'H:DEVLOG1DEVLOG1.ldf' may be incorrect.
Thanks in advance for assistance.
Regards,
Carsten Loeffler

Can anyone help me to recreate the .NDF file if it was lost and not restorable? I have a stored procedure written that will then help me rebuild all indexes on all tables, but I can't seem to figure out how to create the index file again so I can run it. I have tried index files from other databases to no avail. There is no backup to go to.

here is my error message wich can also be seen live at www.aspdoug.com/menu log in with user: doug pass: macromedia!
--------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------
Server Error in '/menu' Application.
An error has occurred while establishing a connection to the server. When connecting to SQL Server 2005, this failure may be caused by the fact that under the default settings SQL Server does not allow remote connections. (provider: SQL Network Interfaces, error: 26 - Error Locating Server/Instance Specified) Description: An unhandled exception occurred during the execution of the current web request. Please review the stack trace for more information about the error and where it originated in the code. SQLExpress database file auto-creation error:
The connection string specifies a local Sql Server Express instance using a database location within the applications App_Data directory. The provider attempted to automatically create the application services database because the provider determined that the database does not exist. The following configuration requirements are necessary to successfully check for existence of the application services database and automatically create the application services database:
If the applications App_Data directory does not already exist, the web server account must have read and write access to the applications directory. This is necessary because the web server account will automatically create the App_Data directory if it does not already exist.
If the applications App_Data directory already exists, the web server account only requires read and write access to the applications App_Data directory. This is necessary because the web server account will attempt to verify that the Sql Server Express database already exists within the applications App_Data directory. Revoking read access on the App_Data directory from the web server account will prevent the provider from correctly determining if the Sql Server Express database already exists. This will cause an error when the provider attempts to create a duplicate of an already existing database. Write access is required because the web server accounts credentials are used when creating the new database.
Sql Server Express must be installed on the machine.
The process identity for the web server account must have a local user profile. See the readme document for details on how to create a local user profile for both machine and domain accounts.

Hello,
Hope anyone in here can help.
I have tried to install the SQL Server 5 Express, but can't seem to get it to work properly.
I got a terrible name set as default for my database, as well as a terrible name for my username.
I can't find a place to change this to something more manageable.
It is further set to windows auth, but trying to set it to both, and trying a username (and password) always gives me a log in error.
I've tried searching all over the net and in here for a simple tutorial, but can't seem to find one that helps me more than it confuses me.
*****
The second part of the problem is that I have a java program which I want to connect to the database and use the tables in it, but I am at loss to how I can find what username (and password) I am supposed to have, what "url" it needs etc.
I have the jdbc driver so that part should work, I can successfully log to other mssql databases (at work/school), but not my own.
Hope you can help, and thanks in advance.

Hey everyone,
I've run into a fairly big problem. Apparently, the automatic backup has not been working since September, and that backup is of no use to me.
What I'm trying to do is restore the database without using the transaction log file. I don't care about a dirty database or lost data. The data is all I need, and the database structure of course.
I've tried several things.
Right click on the <database> go to tasks->attach-> pick MDF file etc.
Following this guide The only problem is I get a different error message. It doesn't ask a yes no question it just says the file doesn't exist and it can't create the database.
I've tried running it from other SQL management software and removing the LOG file when attaching, and that doesn't work. I tried:
Code:
MS SQL
EXEC sp_detach_db @dbname = <my db name>
EXEC sp_attach_single_file_db @dbname = <my db name>, @physname = <my db mdf file>
and I get the same message pretty much.
I tried this but I can't seem to get the database into emergency mode.
Am at the end of my rope and I really need this up and running ASAP.
Although I'm not sure of the proper syntax for setting a database into emergency mode, I think the last link I provided might do the trick.
I also tried the following:
http://www.spaceprogram.com/knowled...file-on_12.html
But when I get to step 8, the database is not in a suspect mode. When I click on it it says the database is in accessible.
When I right click and click on properties I get:

I checked the server and there is enough memory and disk space, about 2GB on each drive. Should be plenty for my 32MB database.
It's not my neck on the line but I would like to see my coworker stay here.
If anyone here knows anything about this, that would be great.
MS SQL 2000
Windows Server 2000 SP 4
_Any_ help or suggestions, other than the obvious, make sure backups are working, will be greatly appreciated....
Did I mention greatly appreciated?
I think the issue is that the original database was lost when someone else was trying what I'm trying now. They're very delete happy.
I think they may be SOL... glad it's not me, then again I wouldn't use the delete key without making 100% sure it wouldn't screw things up...I especially wouldn't empty the recycling bin. I probably would have deleted a database already burnt to CD, or burned some to CD....or made sure my backups were working. Messy messy network state, last guy left it in a mess. New network/DBA/ if it's got a network cable attached you're responsible. :S I don't like this new company that much. Too stingy... Dual P2 server?!?!?! Isn't that like, antiquated? No wonder there have been 3 dba/network admins/"if it's got a network cable..." that have left in the past year.

Ok guys, I do a regular daily ntbackup of my entire server. I thought I had sql backups going daily but I think a admin password change stopped that and well those backups are a LONG time ago. The ntbackup is just 1 lost half day.
Windows crashed and had to be reinstalled, so I have all the files in the database folder and what I've done so far was reinstall windows, sql, and all that stuff so now windows is back up and going. I used sql admin and created the database ncdsm. Then I took the folder from the backup of the database for ncdsm and copied it to the new sql install (after stopping the service) and then turned it back on, and it shows that the tables do not exist, but it shows the list of tables in red.
How can I fix this and get all my databases back to normal? Thanks.

Would any body be able to suggest the best way switch a Lotus .nsf file to Ms SQL database or even to an Access?
I have a .nsh file that I am able to see the contents of but not the database structure, and rather then rebuilding the database and manually inserting the content I would like to import all the information from an old .nsf file that appears to have restriction on it.

If a SQL 2000 server instance is destroyed, but the database file (*.mdf) is saved on the disk, can a database within a newly created server instance be built on the saved file?
If I attempt to create a new database and choose the saved mdf file as the data file, then the server refuses to accept this file. Is there a way to create the new database and make it read the standalone mdf file?
Please help if at all possible. Thanks.

Hi,
Is it possible to restore a database with only a .bak file??
When I try to restore the system comes up with 2 paths where probably the original .mdf and .ldf files existed, but on my system they don't exist. How can I avoid this problem? (it's not possible to get the ldf and mdf files anymore...)

I have to do a database restore from tape from a couple of months ago. When I look at the SQL scheduled task history all databases were sucesfully backed up to a .DAT file. However, when I look at the .DAT file which I have just retrieved from tape - the database which I am looking for isn't listed under the backup information, so I can't choose it to carry out the restore.
Has anyone seen this problem before?
What do I do?
Thanks

One of our database came to Restoring mode. I suddenly stop my SQL service and Copied only MDF files again Started SQL service ,unexpectedly i dropped the Database. Now i cant able to attach the database only with my MDF file.
I tried below Scripts. All scripts shows same error.
EXEC sp_attach_single_file_db @dbname='PhoenixPolice',
@physname=N'C:Program FilesMicrosoft SQL ServerMSSQL10_50.MSSQLSERVERMSSQLPhoenixPolice.mdf'
GO
CREATE DATABASE PhoenixPolice ON

GO
CREATE DATABASE phoenixPolice ON (FILENAME = N'C:Program FilesMicrosoft SQL ServerMSSQL10_50.MSSQLSERVERMSSQLPhoenixPolice.mdf')
FOR ATTACH
All scripts shows below error
File activation failure. The physical file name "F:Microsoft SQL ServerMSSQL10_50.MSSQLSERVERMSSQLDATAPhoenixPolice_1.ldf" may be incorrect.
The log cannot be rebuilt because there were open transactions/users when the database was shutdown, no checkpoint occurred to the database, or the database was read-only. This error could occur if the transaction log file was manually deleted or lost due to a hardware or environment failure.

I need to restore the datafile and logfile to different names.
I modified the options page, changed the 'Restored As' file name.
I clicked on the General page and Clicked on the Options page again, the old values came back.

Hi Everybody,I use MS SQL server 2000 enterprise manager on a windows server 2003.I created a new database in enterprise manager, and try to restore the new database from a .bak file. I went to ---->restore database. I checked "from device" and select the right path to the .bak file.Then I click ok, but there is an error pop up." tend to override existing database", so I went to --->option, and checked "force override existing database". then I click ok, but get an error look like this http://ewwa.lo7.net/error.JPGI thought it was a problem with my .bak file. So I try to use another .bak file which I am sure it is 100% good. It prompt the restore is sucessfully. But when I checked the db, there nothing there(No tables).I think there must be something wrong with my enterprise manager's configuration.Do you know what happen with my enterprise manager?

Hello,
I have a user database which has 1 data file and 1 logfile.
I did a complete backup of the database to a file on the disk drive, using Enterprise manager. Due to some reason, I had to drop the database. The only way I could restore it was by,
1. Create the database with the same name.
2. Restore the complete backup from the file device.
While doing so,
I get the message "Backup set holds the backup of daatabase other than the existing 'userdbname' database. BAckup terminating."
Is it because the database was dropped and recreated.
If I choose the option to overwrite, it restores successfully.
Is this normal and right way to do it? Is there any thing else that I need to take care of, while backup or restore?
Any suggestions welcome.
Thanks,
MMS

I am confused regarding why the default behavior of this option is to use file no 1 if the option is not specified? If I take two backups on different days, weeks, months, etc. and write them to the same Backup set, the second and most recent backup by the way gets the higher file number (position) as one would expect. What is incomprehensible to me is why the decision was made to restore the oldest backup from the backup set if you do not specify with file no? Seems like common sense that I would NEVER want to restore the oldest backup by default and would most-likely always want to restore the most recent backup by default!
If anyone has suggestions on how I could suggest that the behavior of this option be changed, I would appreciate it, as this has caused me much pain.

On executing the RESTORE command of SQL Server to restore from a backup of 78.3 MB, the "Server Application Unavailable" error message comes up.The error message in the Application log is as follows:aspnet_wp.exe (PID: 2184) was recycled because memory consumption exceeded the 152 MB (60 percent of available RAM).
However using Query Analyser of SQL Server I am able to restore the database.

RESTORE DATABASE TestDB
