Restoring A Db That Was Involved In Replication
Mar 24, 2004Hi all
I have restored a db from a live environment to my dev envorinment. This db on live is a replication publisher.
My dev environment has no replication, but when I try to modify the schema in the db I restored I get the following error
"Server: Msg 4932, Level 16, State 1, Line 441
ALTER TABLE DROP COLUMN failed because 'url_web1' is currently replicated."
Does anyone know what I have to do to restore the database on my de box so it 'forgets' its live replication settings?
On my dev server I have no items in the replication folder in Enterprise Manager but it seems replication details are stored somewhere, perhaps in the backup itself?

Replication Help - Problem Restoring Replicated Database
Nov 27, 2002I'm a novice with replication and am in need of direction on how to restore replicated databases. Server A replicates 5 databases to server B using transactional replication. Server A also contains the distribution database. I'm perfoming PUSH replication.
The development area asked me to restore Server A with a copy of production data located on server C. After I restored the data from C to A, I noticed that server A was no longer published. Is this normal?
I re-published the 5 databases, but noticed that the Log Reader Agent has now been running for 2 hours. I'm trying to give myself a crash course in replication, but am coming up empty regarding (1) the prefered method for restoring replicated databases and (2) determining why the Log Reader Agent is taking so long.
Any suggestions?
Thanks, Dave
Transaction Replication Failed After Restoring Full Back Up Of Database In NORECOVERY
Mar 4, 2011We 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.
Restoring Database Leaves Me With (Restoring...) Message
Jan 9, 2007I 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?
Backing Up And Restoring Transactional Replication
Dec 29, 2006From Help
Transactional replication includes the sync with backup option, which can be set on the distribution database and the publication database:
It is recommended to set this option on the distribution database in all cases.
Setting this option on the distribution database ensures that transactions in the log of the publication database will not be truncated until they have been backed up at the distribution database. The distribution database can be restored to the last backup, and any missing transactions are delivered from the publication database to the distribution database; replication continues unaffected.
Does database will not be truncated until they have been backed up at the distribution database mean that the database itself needs to be backed up OR the log file with it?
SQL Server Admin 2014 :: Restoring A Database Even If No Database Or Backup Encryption
Sep 3, 2014I 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

SQL Server 2014 :: Restoring Database Programmatically But Not Over Existing Live Database
Aug 6, 2015I want to restore a database (from an encrypted .bak file) - but *not* over the live original if you take my meaning. Encryption is the standard AES-256 that comes with Sql Server 2014 btw. I don't want the original touched/altered in any way. I would like to capture a success message if possible.I can extract the physical device name of the database in question using the following code:
SELECT physical_device_name, *
FROM msdb.dbo.backupmediafamily
WHERE media_set_id =(SELECT TOP 1 media_set_id
FROM msdb.dbo.backupset
WHERE database_name='MyDatabase'
AND type='D'
ORDER BY backup_start_date DESC)
I would like if the newly restored database was rename to something different than 'MyDatabase' (as shown above) and has different logs than the original. If possible, and capture a success message when restored.
Restoring A Backup Of A Subscriber Database To A New Database
Dec 1, 2006I 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

Restoring A Database
Jan 12, 2001I am running SQL 7 on two seperate NT4 servers, a production server and a standby server. Both servers are configured for Mixed Mode authentication. If I back up a database on the production server, do I also need to back up the master database and restore it. My reasoning behind this is that users' login details will be held in the sysxlogins tbl in the master, while their access rights will be held in the sysusers tbl in the database I am backing up and restoring. If I back up and restore a database without backing up and restoring the master db as well, will the connection between the system login and the database user be broken.
Any comments/suggestions would be appreciated.

View 2 Replies View RelatedRestoring Database On SQL 7.0
Mar 31, 1999Using SQL 7.0, has anyone backed up a database and restored on to a different database without the device files being moved around.
For example, With SQL 6.5 we used to backup PROD (source) database and restore to TRAIN (target) database. It worked just great regardless whether the databases are located on the same drive or not. We loved it and used it to refresh TRAIN from PROD on a weekly basis.(using sql Enterprise Mgr)
However, in SQL 7.0 when we attempt this procedure the database and log files of the TRAIN (target) are getting relocated to the drive location of PROD (source) database. Very strange.
Though thru object transfer i.e. import ,we can import data from PROD(source)
to TRAIN (target) database, but it is very slow and takes lot of time and performance degrades for source database (PROD)
Any input on above will be appreciated if backup / restore thru
enterprise mgr or TSQL procedure works in SQL 7.0 for restoring another database which is also on different drive i.e PROD (source) database on
drive C and TRIAN (target) database on drive E.
Thanks

Restoring A SQL Database.....
Jul 19, 2000While this may be in the wrong forum, I thought that I should try here first.
One of the developers that works for this company would like to restore a sample database to the SQL server after installing our software.
Is there a command line command that can be issued to restore/create a database with a file (.bak) of an SQL database (sample)? If this can't be done, can it be done with VBScript or something similar?
SQL is not my strong point, and neither is development. Any help would be appreciated.
TIA.

Oct 24, 2006Is there a way to restore a database backup file to the default data directory in a specific SQL 2005 instance using T-SQL?
I know that you can use the command RESTORE DATABASE, but that will restore the database files back to it original location. I also know that I can use the WITH MOVE option also, but is there a keyword or some special notation that I can use to make sure that the data/log files are moved to the default data directory for a specific SQL 2005 instance?
I am trying to avoid cases where the original file location does not exists in the current file system.
Thanks in advance,

Replication Issues After A Database Restore - Unable To Drop Or Create Transactional Replication
Sep 13, 2007Hi,I have transactional replication set up on on of our MS SQL 2000 (SP4)Std Edition database serverBecause of an unfortunate scenario, I had to restore one of thepublication databases. I scripted the replication module and droppedthe publication first. Then did a full restore.When I try to set up the replication thru the script, it created thepublication with the following error messageServer: Msg 2714, Level 16, State 5, Procedure SYNC_FCR ToGPRPTS_GL00100, Line 1There is already an object named 'SYNC_FCR To GPRPTS_GL00100' in thedatabase.It seems the previous replication has set up these system viewsSYNC_FCR To GPRPTS_GL00100. And I have tried dropping the replicationmodule again to see if it drops the views but it didn't.The replication fails with some wired error & complains about thisviews when I try to run the synch..I even tried running the sp_removedbreplication to drop thereplication module, but the views do not seem to disappear.My question is how do I remove these system views or how do I make thereplication work without using these views or create new views.. Whyis this creating those system views in the first place?I would appreciate if anyone can help me fix this issue. Please feelfree to let me know if any additional information or scripts needed.Thanks in advance..Regards,Aravin Rajendra.
