Error 1824 Cannot Attach A Database That Was Being Restored
Aug 23, 2007
We have a log shipping database running on SQL 2000 ENT SP4, the secondary DB is in standby/read only mode . we have a job that runs every day to take it offline, make a copy of the files and attach them as a new database for reporting purposes.
We're planning to upgrade to SQL 2005 however, when we copy the Standby/read only database files and attach using "CREATE DAABASE FOR ATTACH" we get :
msg 1284
Cannot attach a database that was being restored.
this works in SQL 2000 but not SQL 2005, is there a way to force attach the DB ?
Thanks.

I am trying to attach a database to SQLEXPRESS. I get an error, [Directory Lookup for the file C: . . . DataORION.mdf" failed with the operating system error 5(Access is denied.)]
I tried to attach another database and got the same error. I have attached databases to SQLEXPRESS before successfully. I tried to attach using single file to no avail.
I am using the query, "sp_attach_db @dbname=N'ORION', @filename1=N'C:Program FilesMicrosoft SQL ServerMSSQL.1MSSQLDataORION.MDF'
go"
ORION.mdf is in the Data folder for SQLEXPRESS
What am I doing wrong or what did I change inadvertently to restrict my access to the file?

Hi Guys,This is my first post and I hope I'm not going to embarrass myself to much.I am currently writing a pseudo install package for SQL Server Express, it is written in VB.Net 2.0.
I have created an *.exe that fires the SQL Server Express install package silently with command line options, once complete the *.exe copies an *.MDF and an *.LDF to the newly created data directory. Once the data has been copied I fire a "CREATE DATABASE FOR ATTACH" using a SQLClient.SQLCommand to attach my DB. I am using Windows Authentication for SQL Server Express.This all works beautifully when the *.exe is being run from a local hard disk - complete success.When I move the *.exe to a CD it fails . SQL Server is installed correctly, the files are copied to the local hard disk in the correct location. I then fire the "CREATE DATABASE" command - its here I get the error.The error details are:Unable to open the physical file "c:....Exchange.LDF". Operating System error 5:"5(error not found)". Cannot create file "c:....Exchnage.ldf" because it already exists. Change the file path or file name, and retry the operation. Could not open new database 'Exchange'. CREATE DATABASE is aborted. File activation failure. The physical file name "c:....Exchange.LDF" may be incorrect.Remember this works perfectly when run from the local hard disk, this only occurs when running from a CD-ROM.Now from the research I have done I believe it may be a permissions error. The setup *.exe is being run from a Administrator account and the SQL Server DB Engine Service Account is System. I'm under the impression that this should provide more than enough permissions.
Thanks for any help you guys may be able to provide...
Matt.

Hello.
Our GIS group is working with SQL Server 2005 in conjunction with ESRI's ArcGIS software. SQL Server is being used as a test bed until we formally migrate our existing Microsoft Access mdb's over. So, at this time we are conducting various tests and have the freedom to "blow up" our databases.
We are currently testing ArcSDE Workgroup edition, which will only work with SQL Server Express (SSE). SSE will let us create spatial joins and relationships, while maintaining data integrity. So one possible workaround was to detach the database from SQL Server 2005 and then attach it to SSE. Unfortunately, we ran into a problem in re-attaching the database back to SQL Server 2005.
The exact steps are as follows:
Back up database using back up tool in SQL Server 2005.
Detached database from SQL Server 2005.
Attached database to SQL Server Express (hereafter SSE).
Created a table in database while it was attached to SSE.
Detached database from SSE.
Attempt to attach database to SQL Server 2005 failed
Successfully restored database in SQL Server 2005 using Restore tool.
Step number 6 above failed and generated the following error:
TITLE: Microsoft SQL Server Management Studio

Questions:
Why did I get this error?
Can incorrect or missing permission or ownership settings generate this kind of error?
When should one detach/attach a database?
I welcome your assistance and suggestions.

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
Many Thanks

Hi,
I've just created my first projects using Visual Studio 2005 and SQL 2005 Express. This is the basic;
One windows service is created that updates a database. The windows service running under "Local system" account
One windows application where a user can see data (and change) from the database
A common business and dataaccess layer/project is used by both applications
Connection string to the database: "Data Source=.SQLEXPRESS;AttachDbFilename=|DataDirectory|DataDatabase.mdf;Integrated Security=True;Connect Timeout=60;User Instance=True"
Both application is located in the same directory. When the computer starts the windows service starts and works perfectly. But when a user starts the windows applications the following error is reported "An attempt to attach an auto-named database for file..A database with the same name exists, or specified file cannot be opened, or it is located on UNC share".
It look likes that only one of my application can connect to the database at a time!
Is it possible to use separate applications to connect to the same database file?
/Robert

Hello,
I have seen some solutions of which I tried on this form for the error I am receiving, but I still cannot get the issue resolved.
Here is my case:
I developed an app using SQL Express as the local data source. I published it to my server using the Once Click install feature. When I look in my project viewer, under settings, My db connection strings are listed as follows: Data Source=.SQLEXPRESS;AttachDbFilename=|DataDirectory|TAP_Master.mdf;Integrated Security=True;User Instance=True
From another computer, I navigate to the publish site, install and run the application with no problems. I have on another computer, the same app with an updated version number that I wish to publish, however the difference is is that this published version does not include the database as I do not want the end user to overwrite any existing data that they may have from the previous version.
I publish the updated version, install it but when the app runs, I receive the message, "An attempt to attach an auto-named database for file".
Any suggestions?
Thanks in advance.

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.
Thanks

Hi,
I have recently restored a backup of a SQL Server 2000 Database (from my production server €“ which is a shared hosting service) on my dev machine so I can do some testing. The issue I am having is with the permission of objects. Some of the objects were created with the dbo user and some with another login (myLogin). The ones that were created with dbo work fine on my dev machine. The others do not work unless I prefix them with €œmyLogin€?€¦ I get an €œInvalid object name€? if I don€™t prefix them. This is problematic because there are hundreds of stored procs and tables that I would need to modify in order to use them on my dev machine.
Can anyone tell me how to create a new user with the necessary permissions so I can execute my procs and access tables without having to prefix them?
Hope this makes sense €“ please let me know if it doesn€™t.
Thanks,
Mike

Hi
I have an sql server 2005+sp2 instance and a db on it.
I have create a database master key (specifying a password so it WILL NOT get encrypted by the server master key) on my database and backed it up
CREATE MASTER KEY ENCRYPTION BY PASSWORD = 'test'
go
BACKUP MASTER KEY TO FILE = 'c:Genesis_DBMasterKey.key' ENCRYPTION BY PASSWORD = 'test'
Then I have created a asymmetic key without specifying a password therefore the key will get encrypted bt the database master key.
CREATE ASYMMETRIC KEY card WITH ALGORITHM = RSA_512
And then for test I run
DECLARE @Encryptvalasym varbinary(MAX)
SET @Encryptvalasym = EncryptByAsymKey(AsymKey_ID('card'), 'EncryptedData')
SELECT @Encryptvalasym
SELECT CONVERT(varchar(max),DecryptByAsymKey(AsymKey_ID('card'),@Encryptvalasym) )
And the result is OK.
Problem: as a recovey plan if I restore the database on the same or other instance (althogh the asymmetic key is part of backup) the decrypt doesn€™t work.
I have tried to create a bank database restore tha databse master key and recreate the asymmetric key, but I€™m afraid I€™m still not having any luck with it, as it does not decrypt.
My main issue is that is any case if I have to recover the database , how do I have to make sure that encryption/Dycription will work?
Thanks

I have a medical records system, SoapWare v4.90, that uses MSDE (SQL2000) databases. Due to the 2gb limitation, I am trying to migrate over to SQL 2005 (Standard or Express) which I have heard works fine. The SoapWare has a datamanager that allows me to log in to the MSDE instance, detach the SoapWare databases from msde (as well as do backups, etc) which I can confirm are detached.
Then I log back into a SQL2005 database instance using the datamanager and try to attach the database. This is what their pictured instructions demonstrate. However, I get the following error:
Database 'sw_charts' cannot be upgraded because it is read-only or has read-only files. Make the database or files writeable, and rerun recovery.
Of course, some of the entries will be read only, since doctors have to sign off the charts and are not allowed to subsequently change them. But I should still be able to switch over to sql 2005?!?!?!?
Or... is there a way to attach the databases to SQLExpress manually?
Help pls?
