The following failed in EM (or whatever it is called now management
studio I think) and I scripted it out and ran it in a query window to
get more info. This works fine in SQL 2000 but not in 2005. I also tried
to 'create' the database first then ran this command below but with the
'force restore over existing database' checked on but this failed also
which is odd as well. Any ideas. This is my very first play with 2005 so
it is not off to a great start although to be fair, i seem to have gor
lucky on the install as it all went OK. BTW, is there a more approriate
newsgroup for this query?
Thanks

I have seen this before. A 2000 restore fails, leaving the database thinking it is being restored but the restore job failed and errors when it is restarted. EM is clueless. I believe there is a proc to reset some flag. Can you share it with me???
Hi, I am trying to restore a production copy. I have only the .bak file with me. While restoring, i m facing the following error. can u please help me... thanks in advance.
"MODIFY FILE encountered operating system error 112(There is not enough space on the disk.) while attempting to expand the physical file."
I have placed the data files(52GB) in D: drive(140GB free space) and transaction log file(100GB) in F: drive(465GB free space). Still i am facing this error...
I backed up a database to drive f:, then did restore and set options to move the .mdf and .ldf files to different HDs (f: for .mdf and d: for .ldf).
During restore I got a disk IO error. The restore terminated abnormally. Now I have no DB but the .mdf and the .ldf have been moved to the HDs that I specified in the restore options.
I cannot move the .bak file from the f: it gives me an IO error when I try this. It did allow me to copy the .mdf from f: to d:
I need to know how to recover the db frm the .mdf and .ldf files. I have tried using sp_attach_db and got the following error:
An error occurred while processing the log for database 'MyDB'
Hello, I have a database backup taken from SQL Server 2005. I originally had placed the backup into a file in My Documents, but when I went to locate the backup file there (C:/Documents and Settings...), the folders would not expand. So I moved the backup to the C:Program FilesMicrosoft SQL ServerMSSQL.1MSSQLBackup directory and was able to select the file there. When I try to restore this file into SQL Server 2005 Express using the Management Studio, I get the following error message:

I am having a problem with connecting to SQL Server 2005 database from Office Business Scorecard Manager 2005 (the connection string i am using is: provider=SQLOLEDB;Data source=server_name; Initial catalog=database_name). But the connection failed. Would please any experts here shed me any light on what is the problem and how to fix it then? As there is no any forum for Office Business Scrorecard manager 2005. Therefore I post my thread here as it is related to the connection to SQL Server 2005 database engine, thought here is the best place for this question.
Thank you very in advance for your kind advices and help. And I am looking forward to hearing from you soon.
In SQL 2000, When I restore a database backup called "A" as "B" the datafile name and log file will change automatically with the new restored database name , whereas in SQL 2005 the datafile name and log file name remains with backup database name.
Will this issue be addressed in next release of service pack.
My customer has SQL Server 2005. I have SQL Server 2000 on my laptop (on XP Pro). I believe I have an empty database the same as theirs, but I need to restore their data. They sent me a normal SQL Backup, but my laptop threw a fit and cannot work with it.
They are now trying to export the database to Microsoft Access and send me that, but I won't get that until next week now. However is there a better and easier solution for those of us with insufficient experience of this, please?
I am new to SQL Server. I tried to read as much as possible in newsgroups prior to this post. I have tried several different ways to install this without success. The last time I attempted to install as a local service and I unchecked hide advance configuration. I am running Windows XP SP2 with all the latest updates. Is there a solution to install this properly? Any help would be greatly appreciated!

Is it possible to do a full restore of a database without restoring the full-text catalogs?
