Restored Full With NORECOVERY And Db Reads DbName (Restoring...)
Jul 23, 2007
Can anyone help me with this issue? I restored a full backup with NORECOVERY because I need to restore the differentials as well but I have not been able to access the db. No matter what I seem to try i receive the 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)
We had a siutation last night in our production environment that forced us to revert back to an earlier version of the database (before a major code rollout that failed). After restoring the days full backup (with NORECOVERY), and then restoring a DIFF backup (FULL RECOVERY and had checked Preserve Replication Settings)...the transaction replication failed.
Message #1 The replication agent has been successfully started. See the Replication Monitor for more information.

I've tried reinitializing the publication/subscription and while that took brand new snapshots and copied it over to the replicated data server, it did not fix the problem.I read from a different post that I could try running "sp_replrestart" but that ran for about a half an hour and didn't appear to do anything but fill up our log files...did I not wait long enough?
The only thing I know to do at this point is to drop the publication on the production server and rebuild it completely (and with all the tables we're replicating that would take quite a bit of time.
I cannot restore a backup file of the transaction log without getting the following message:
ODBC SQL State: 42000 The preceding restore operation did not specify WITH NORECOVERY or WITH STANDBY. Restart the restore sequence, specifying WITH NORECOVERY or WITH STANDBY for all but the final step.
I have tried to do this in Enterprise manager and with the following script with the same results:
RESTORE Log TestDB FROM DISK='D:MSSQL7BACKUPMMTrans' WITH NORECOVERY
What am I missing? Thanks in advance for any help.
We replicate a SQL2000 database (DataBaseA) to a SQL2000 database (DataBaseB) by using the Restore function and hasn't change its logical name but only the physical data path and file name. It is running fine for a year. We use the same way to migrate the DataBaseB to a new SQL2005 server with the Restore function and the daily operation is running perfect. However, when we do the Backup of DatabaseB in the SQL2005, it just prompt the error message
System.Data.SqlClient.SqlError: The backup of full-text catalog 'DataBaseA' is not permitted because it is not online. Check errorlog file for the reason that full-text catalog became offline and bring it online. Or BACKUP can be performed by using the FILEGROUP or FILE clauses to restrict the selection to include only online data. (Microsoft.SqlServer.Smo)
Please note we left the DataBaseA in the old SQL2000 server.
Please help on how we can delete the Full-text catalog from DatabaseB so we can do a backup
I just restored my SQL server 2000 database on the SQL server 2005. after this i ran the Service broker sample ("Hello World") on this database by changing the AdventureWorks name to the new database name. The "setup.sql" runs fine. When i run the "SendMessage.sql" i was not getting any rows in the output (The message was not getting inserted into the queue). I checked the Service broker is enabled on this databased using the query "select is_broker_enabled from sys.databases where name = 'newdbname' " It was 1. I even tried the ALTER DATABASE SET ENABLE_BROKER. but it didnt work.
When i tried the sample on a newly created database it worked fine.
Is there any solution to make the restored database to work for service broker.
When restoring a database that contained a full text catalog to another server I noticed that the full text catalogs were not restored. However, the system tables still had the information on these catalogs. As such, I couldn't delete the catalogs (because they didn't exist).
In the end, I deleted the relevant lines from the system table sysfulltextcatalogs and sysobjects and then built a new set of catalogs. Obviously this isn't ideal.
I am restoring databases to a backup/standby server on a regular basis and was wondering if there are any official/documented methods of restoring full text catalogs to another server. (i.e. without having to mess around with the system tables). There doesn't seem to be much in BOL.
After I restore a database with SQL the database I cannot access it. However, after restoring using Enterprise Manager I do not have the same problem. The message I get is:
Database 'les_test' cannot be opened. It is in the middle of a restore.
The code I am trying to use for the restore is:
RESTORE DATABASE les_test FROM DISK = 'c:MSSQL7BACKUPiztrobeta_db_200012011201.BAK' WITH NORECOVERY, REPLACE, MOVE 'biztrobeta_PRI' TO 'c:mssql7DATAiztrobeta_PRI.ndf', MOVE 'biztrobeta_FGE_Dat1' TO 'c:mssql7DATAiztrobeta_FGE_Dat1.ndf', MOVE 'biztrobeta_FGX_Idx1 ' TO 'c:mssql7DATAiztrobeta_FGX_Idx1.ndf', MOVE 'biztrobeta_LOG' TO 'c:mssql7Dataiztrobeta_LOG.ldf' GO
I tried changing the status in the master..sysdatabases tables, but the restored database was still not accessible. I tried to do this using the following statment:
UPDATE sysdatabases SET STATUS = 4194316 WHERE name = 'les_test' GO
We are trying to restore from a backup (.bak) of a sql 2005 database with full text catologs to sql 2012.
We are getting errors saying that the backup file context are different from what we are trying to restore to, even if we try to create a new database from the backup.The new database is just a test database. The source is a production database with full cataologs.
The normal restore from a bak file does not seem to work.
We dont need the full text catalogs in the new database, but cannot change settings in the source production database.
Is there a way to take a backup of the sql 2005 database without the full text cataologs being included ? , without changing setting in the source database beforehand ?
We are running a simple replication whereby we backup the PROD server once, restore onto STANDBY and then run a SP every 5 minutes on PROD that dumps the transaction log and then calls a SP on STANDBY to apply the log to STANDBY. My problem is that both the initial restore and all subsequent logs appear to need the "WITH NORECOVERY" option which leaves the database unusable. BOL says to 'use "WITH NORECOVERY" on all log restorations except the final'. Problem is, because the whole process is automatic, we have no way of telling which of the logs is going to be the last !!!. So, my questions are, 1) am I doing it right and 2)what would happen if a log was applied twice, would SQL know and not apply it ?
i have applied transactional log to the database and set the database to recovery mode. Suddenly i feel i want to recover another transactional log backup which i forgot. how to take database again to norecovery mode to apply that perticular tranasactional log only.
im trying to set up database mirroring and in the initial phase of database restoring im getting some problem.
the scenario is .
1- i create a tempDB on server1(which will be principal server) and backup full and transaction logs.
2- create tempDB in server 2( going to be used as mirror) .
3- restore the full backup of "tempDB" from server1 with NORECOVERY option.
this step results in a message box showing that the restore was successfull...
but the database explorer( management studio) shows the tempDB in (restoring ...) state. and no more operations can be performed with this Database. ( because teh databse isin restoring mode).. please help what this issue is?
I just restored a SQL 7 db using the Enterprise Manager GUI interface. I selected the "Leave database nonoperational, but able to restore additional transaction logs" option. I should not have selected this option as I do not have any transaction logs to apply.
Anyway, my question is... Is there a way to mark the database as opertational without running the restore again?
I am in the process of moving databases from a SQL 2005 Standard version to a 2-node 2014 cluster.All of my 2005 databases back up successfully.They all restore without issue except for one database that has a full text catalog. I get this message
Msg 7610, Level 16, State 1, Line 2 Access is denied to "fileStoragedataMSSQLSERVERFullTextCatalog", or the path is invalid. Msg 3156, Level 16, State 50, Line 2 File 'sysft_FTCatalog' cannot be restored to 'fileStoragedataMSSQLSERVERFullTextCatalog'. Use WITH MOVE to identify a valid location for the file. Msg 3119, Level 16, State 1, Line 2 Problems were identified while planning for the RESTORE statement. Previous messages provide details. Msg 3013, Level 16, State 1, Line 2 RESTORE DATABASE is terminating abnormally.

I went as far as giving the folder full access to everyone temporarily and received the same error.
I am trying to get file space usage information for all of the databases in my server and store it in a table to collect a history of spce usage. I know that I can get this on a per database basis if I use DBCC(SHOWFILESTATS). So, I would issue a USE statement and then a DBCC statement inserting the rows into a temp table for later processing. Since databases can come and go, I would like to loop through the records in sysdatabases and for each one, issue the USE and then the DBCC via an sp_executesql. This is all working fine except, the sp_executesql of the USE statement seems to be ignored.
Is there some way to get this statement to take effect? Is there a better way to get this information - ie is this stored in a table or view that I can't seem to find?
Is there a way to 'extend' the use of 'Use DatabaseName' sql statement? I want to build an dynamic sql string such as 'Use '+ @serverName+ '.Master', but it won't accept serverName. just for database within the same server...
I have databse called RM-A1 and a log of RM-A1.log
When i run this statement it errors.

Im using a dynamic statement

Hi!I have a problem. i have created a website with a login page, i have moved all my aspnetdb tables to my remote host. but when iam trying to logon i get this error messages. EXECUTE permission denied on object 'aspnet_CheckSchemaVersion', database 'dbname', owner 'dbo'. Someone? I really need help...
I'm in need of a few more pointers when it comes to SQL Server 2005 Security setup for accessing a database through IIS web services. There's loads of great advise in these forums which I've followed so pls forgive me if I've missed a post that finally resolves this. I know I'm so close but it feels so very far...
Anyhow, here's the set up: - Server 2003 / SQL Server 2005 / .NET 2.0 / Visual Studio 2005 / Client XP PC
The story so far: - Built an ASPX website in VS2005 on a client PC that connects to a SQL2005 db. No probs during development. - Copied website to WS2005 & configured IIS accordingly. No probs browsing non-db webpages.
The problem: As soon as I browse to a page that extracts data from the db I get the following error message..
[SqlException (0x80131904): The SELECT permission was denied on the object 'tbl_location', database 'SmartDMA', schema 'dbo'.]
...plus a whole load of code that I've seen plastered over lots of forums.
My configurations: - The website is in the default SQL Application Pool that has the identity set to 'Predifed: Network Service' (as I'd previously has a similar error; SQLException (blah blah): Login failed for user '(null)'. Reason: Not associated with a trusted SQL Server connection)
- IIS Website ASP.NET is v2.0.50727 - Website Authentication Methods / Enable Anonymous Access (ticked) Username: IUSR_SERVERNAME Password: *********. Intergration Windows Authentication (ticked). - SQL Server Mngt, Secuirty / Logins / NT AUTHORITYNETWORK SERVICE lists the db in question with dbo as the Default Schema & public ticket as the db role membership. - connectionString="Data Source=SERVERNAME;Initial Catalog=DBNAME;Integrated Security=true" providerName="System.Data.SqlClient"/>
What I've tried already based on forums advise: - Changing Server Properties to SQL Server & Windows Authentication mode. - Rather than using Integrated Security I've tried the SQL 'sa' account, but not 100% is I did that right (still got the same error anyway).
The rest of the advise I've read appears to confirm the rest of my settings, but I'm still getting the error.
Can anyone please shed any light on what I'm missing here. Feel free to ask questions on any configuration settings I've missed that may help.
I have a strange problem with one of my Linked server connections. I am connecting from SQL Server 2005 Standard Edition (9.00.3042.00) to and Oracle 10g database using the Microsoft OLE DB Provider for Oracle. The connection works and I am able to select from all the Oracle tables except for 1 table. When selecting from this table I get the following error:
OLE DB provider "MSDAORA" for linked server "DBNAME" returned message "ORA-01476: divisor is equal to zero".
Msg 7330, Level 16, State 2, Line 1 Cannot fetch a row from OLE DB provider "MSDAORA" for linked server "DBNAME".
This probem happens if the table has rows or has no rows (empty table).
I have tried SELECT * and count(*) along with selecting a specific column from the table.
I can use SQL*plus from the system that the SQL database server running on it and select from the table using the same login/password that the linked server uses to rule out a permissions problem.
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.
Can someone help me, I have this DB that needs to be restored. I have the full backup and the differential backup. When I'm trying to restore my differential backup it prompts me this error "System.Data.SqlClient.SqlError: The log or differential backup cannot be restored because no files are ready to rollforward. (Microsoft.SqlServer.Smo)". Then I try to create a test DB and restore my full backup there, it was succesfully restored and now try to restore my differential backup since I need the newest backup I received that error. I have already used the option leave the database non-operational but still the same.
Hi! I was assigned to solve performance problems for an application. I fired up Sql Server profiler and started a trace. Downloaded Sql Server Trace Analyzer. It's a trial version so it's very limited. What I found is that one stored procedure generates almost 400 000 reads everytime it's used and it's used everytime the user wants to see his orders. I've tried to translate the t-sql to english from swedish, it looks something like this:
select top 100 o.orderid, o.name, o.latestdeldate, os.name as OrderStatus, os.orderstatusID, p.placeID, p.name as place, p.address, p.city, a.name as worktype, noOfActions=(select count(*) from actions a where a.order_orderid=o.orderid), noOfServiceObjects = (select count(*) from Serviceobject s, Actions a where s.Place_PlaceID = o.Place_PlaceID and a.order_orderid = o.orderid and a.Serviceobject_serviceobjectid = s.serviceobjectid), ... ... ...
It has 8 select count(*) in the select statement then in the where statement it has 2 more select count(*).
I know it's very difficult for you to come up with a solution but do you know a better way than to use select count(*) everywhere? The count is used for to show different status flags on the website.
If I dump a replicated Db and restore it onto another DB, how do I switch off replication from the restored DB. I believe there were some scripts developed for this in 6.5.
