Restoring A Db In SQL Server 2005
Dec 21, 2006
Hello,
I received a backup Sql Server file and I am trying to restore it. When trying to restore the backup using SQL Server 2000, I get the following message:
"the backed-up database has on-disk structure version 611. The server supports version 539 and cannot restore or upgrade this database. RESTORE DATABASE is terminating abnormally."
After doing some research online, I figured out that the backup I received must be from SQL Server 2005. Therefore, I installed SQL SErver 2005 on my laptop (so now I have both 2000 and 2005 on my laptop)..
I tried to use the restore database option in SQL Server 2005 ( SQL Server Management Studio) to restore my backup, and I get the same error message (written again below) as I did when using SQL Server 2005:
"The backed-up database has on-disk structure version 611. The server supports version 539 and cannot restore or upgrade this database. RESTORE DATABASE is terminating abnormally"
Can anyone please provide me assistance on what I'm doing wrong? Is the issue that I have both SQL Server 2000 and SQL Server 2005 installed on my laptop? Thanks.

Hello Everyone,
I am trying to restore a bak file which came with code for a tutorial. I think it is safe to restore, but sql server 2005 express has the following problem when I try to restore it.

I am restoring a production copy of db XYZ to the development server db XYZ. I want to retain the original users on the development server for db XYZ. How do I create a script that will reset the users on the development server with the same permissions and access they had before the production copy was restored on development? I have searched and searched and cannot find the answer. I can use a third party tool - Embarcadero - to script out the create and update stmts but it is not 100% correct. I end up having to do alot of manual work.
any assistance would be greatly appreciated.
thanks

SQL 2005 Express - Database Restore size problem
Was this post helpful ?
Hi,
I'm trying to restore a SQL Server DB Backup from a SQL Server DB Server on to my Laptop (SQL 2005 Express)
When I execute a restore filelistonly command on the backup file, It seems that the Database included is 1GB, but the Log file is 91 GB in size, which exceeds my diskspace.
I can restore the Data on its own without the log file, but the the Database stays in "restoring" mode. I've tried to switch the restore flag off (update sys.databases set state = 0 where name = 'G001'), but I can`t seem to be able to do it, even if I try to allow updates via:
sp_configure 'allow updates', 1
GO
RECONFIGURE WITH OVERRIDE
GO
Any ideas how I can restore the database without restoring the enormous logfile?
Thanks in advance...

Hi!
I'm a beginner w ith SQL Express and am having some problems. I am using 2005 SP1 and installed the SQL Server Management Studio Express as well. I have a backup from a SQL Server 7.0 database that I am trying to restore into my database using the management studio. When I try to restore from the file into my database, I get the error,
System.Data.SqlClient.SqlError: The backup of the system database on the device D:GMBeta2Local.bak cannot be restored because it was created by a different version of the server (7.00.1063) than this server (9.00.3033). (Microsoft.SqlServer.Express.Smo)
Is this true? Is there any way for me to get this data into my SQL Server 2005 express on my laptop?

Dear All,
I am experiencing a problem that, after i have made a backup database file in SQL Server version (9.00.1090), when i restore the database in a newer SQL Server 2005 version(9.00.1399), an error occurs.
The error is:
Restore failed for Server 'demo'. (Microsoft.SqlServer.Smo)
Additional information:
System.Data.SqlClient.SqlError: The database was backed up on a server running version 9.00.1090. That version is incompatible with this server, which is running version 9.00.1399. Either restore the database on a server that supports the backup, or use a backup that is compatible with this server. (Microsoft.SqlServer.Smo)
Anyone can tell me how i could fix this?
Why would it happen?
Thank you very much
Regards,
George

I'm working on a restore procedure for the case where all MDF filesare missing, but the LDF files are all intact. A full backup is doneevery 24 hours, and a log backup is done every 3 hours. Afterrestoring the last full + log backups, is it at all possible to usethe LDF files to recover data from that point up to a newer point intime?I've found a post which explains how to do this on SQL Server 2000<http://groups.google.com/group/comp...s.ms-sqlserver/browse_thread/thread/3ef5c7cbc0a83334/f3b0c70811d35ed7>, but step 4fails with the following error message:BACKUP LOG cannot be performed because there is no current databasebackup.

Howdy all. I want to be able to restore just 1 filegroup from a filegroup backup, without having to restore the log afterwords even if the data has changed post filegroup backup. While this would leave the data inconsistant, it may be desired at times. From BOL: ms-help://MS.SQLCC.v9/MS.SQLSVR.v9.en/udb9/html/2f552700-efb3-48f1-b96d-c073049100f0.htm
************************************************** ******
If the files have been modified after the file backup was created, execute the RESTORE LOG statement to apply the transaction log backup, specifying:
The name of the database to which the transaction log will be applied.
The backup device from where the transaction log backup will be restored.
The NORECOVERY clause if you have another transaction log backup to apply after the current one; otherwise, specify the RECOVERY clause.
The transaction log backups, if applied, must cover the time when the files and filegroups were backed up until the end of log (unless ALL database files are restored).
************************************************** ******
But thats just it, I may not want to take this action. Maybe some data got deleted from a set of tables in a filegroup right after I took my last filegroup backup, so I just want to restore that filegroup back to that backup, but leave my other filegroups alone. Restoring the log brings the data back to a consistant state when the log was backed up, which may not be what I want.
Can this be accomplished?
TIA, cfr

Hello,
I'm having an issue with stored procedures after restoring a db from 2000 -> 2005.
If any stored procedures isnt owned by dbo (eg tomsqluser.updateItems rather than dbo.updateItems) then it just wont work and Studio Management Server doesnt give the permission to change it to dbo.
Is there any way around this after restoring?

i'm trying to set up one of the asp.net website starter kits and part of the process is to backup the sql express db and then import it into the sql 2005 at the web hosting account. it's not working and i'm wondering if there's any difference between the backups they make. the sql express makes a file with a .bak extension and the sql 2005 at the host makes a file with a .sqlbak extension. i was assuming that was just a naming thing and not a structural thing but the host's tech support has said:
"This sort of thing happens when the database being imported is not properly formatted. You can try downloading and using sql express from microsoft to see if you can do it manually, but most likely you will need to save your database again properly set for import to an mssql server rather than however you did."
all i had done was rename the .bak file from express to .sqlbak as that was the choice for backup files.
i will note that it also failed importing the .mdf, which works fine locally with the site but i did make some changes to it from the original that came with the starter kit.
should a backup file made with sql express (using sql management studio express, by right clicking on the file and choosing tasks > backup) normally be importable by sql 2005?
or, i suppose, does it make sense that a db that works fine locally with sql express (within a visual web developer express project anyway) would actually be "formatted" in a way that would cause it to fail to import into sql 2005?
thanks much for any assistance.

I am currently having a problem with restoring a backup made on SQL 2000 XP machine onto a Windows server 2003 machine with SQL Express 2005. I am getting the following error
"System.Data.SqlClient.SqlError: The operating system returned the error '5(Access is denied.)' while attempting 'RestoreContainer::ValidateTargetForCreation' on 'C:Program FilesAvidian TechnologiesProphetavidian.mdf'. (Microsoft.SqlServer.Express.Smo)"
I'm not sure what is going on becuase I have no issues installing the backup on my XP Pro machine that has SQL Express 2005 Dev edition. So what I did was restore the backup on to SQL Express 2005 on my dev machine and backup again. Unfortunately when I took the newly created backup and tried again to restore the database on to my window server 2003 machine it failed again. Exact same message was displayed.
Any suggestions or help would be greatful.
Thanks,
Rodney

Hi Guys,
I have two servers at my site out of which one is our production server (on SQL 2000) and the other being a reporting server (SQL 2005). Now the question i have are the following..
Q1) Can i restore an hourly differential backup of my SQL 2000 to SQL 2005?
Q2) If yes, are there any specific way i need to go about it other than the conventional Restore with NoRecovery option?
Q3) If the answer is no to Q1, then is there any 3rd party software that does this(restoring differentials from 2000 to 2005)?
I had tried this once some time back and at that time it failed to keep the database in a state(norecovery) where in it would accept timely differential db restoration.
Appreciate your help

Hello,
Does anyone else ever experience this problem, and if so do you know what causes it:
When ever I restore a database called say XXX.mdf, it restores OK and I can view via MSE as XXX.mdf. Then when I visit MSE again there is another database called C:Program FilesMicrosoft SQL ServerMSSQL.1MSSQLDataXXX.mdf - both are linked to the same .mdf file, however if you try to expand XXX.mdf nothing happens as though the database has been detached?

I did a backup of a SQL2000 database (named Winstis) using the 2005 management studio. I then created a blank database on my 2005 instance (named Winstis). I then tried to do a database restore to the new 2005 database. I got an error:
System.Data.SqlClient.SqlError: The backup set holds a backup of a database other than the existing 'Winstis' database. (Microsoft.SqlServer.Smo)
I even tried the option to Overwrite Existing database and I got a different error:
System.Data.SqlClient.SqlError: The operating system returned the error '32(The process cannot access the file because it is being used by another process.)' while attempting 'RestoreContainer::ValidateTargetForCreation' on 'D:Program FilesMicrosoft SQL ServerMSSQLData est.ldf'. (Microsoft.SqlServer.Smo)
Also the 2005 instance database is on C:Program FilesMicrosoft SQL ServerMSSQL.1MSSQLDataWinstis_Data.mdf
and the 2000 instance is on
D:Program FilesMicrosoft SQL ServerMSSQLDataWinstis_Data.mdf
How can I accomplish getting the database from 2000 to 2005 with all tables, store procedures, and functions?

I have a question regarding moving databases within the same server but to a different drive. Using the 'Alter Database' query transaction procedures within the SQL Server Management Studio, I'm able to take a user database offline and move it. However, when using the Alter transaction to bring the database back online, I get errors. There was also an attempt that seemed to work, but the app that uses the database through ODBC can't see the database that was moved and errors out.
How can databases be moved and connections re-established within the same server?
Thanks...

Hi all,
We are experiencing major performance issues after restoring SQL Server 2000 db into newly setup hardware environment. The application is faster on another environemnt running on Windows 2000 server with SQL Server 2000.
We have replicated exact same hardware setup, but only fifference is we are running latest version windows server (2003) and latest version of SQL Server (2005). So far we have troubleshooted the bottleneck to be one of the trigger that is inserting data into a table in one of the stored procedures. The same SP takes 9 mins to execute whereas on our env it takes around one hour. If I disable the trigger it executes in 2 minutes.
After restoring, we have executed
exec sp_updatestats
DBCC UPDATEUSAGE
DBCC DBREINDEX all tables
Set Compatibility level to SQL SERVER 2005 (90).
Now we are installing latest Service Pack for both OS and SQL Server.
Any ideas?
Your help is appreciated.

Hi all,
I'm kinda stuck with the following issue and would apreciate some help with it.
Basically i need to have a user within SQL that has rights to restore databases and is the owner of that database so it can alter the data. The problem i face is that at this moment i see no other way then making that user either member of the server role "sysadmin" or "serveradmin".
Anyway, these roles have to much rights. I tried using the dbcreator role which will make a the needed user db_owner but only when a new database is created, not when a database is restored.
Tried to resolve this with a DDL trigger and then temporarily run as a user with serveradmin rights, however there is no system event for restore database, so that doesn't work either.
Anybody got any suggestions?

Hi,
I have a database that is in the SQL Server 2000 compatability mode on my SQL 2005 server. I am trying to restore a backup of this database on my SQL Server 2000 database on another server and keep getting strange messages. First trying Red-Gate and then plain SQL Server with no luck.
It seems as I remember that the 7.0 and 2000 compatibility issue between backups did not arise when the compatibility mode was set to 7.0.
Is this "planned" behavior or an "undocumented feature"??? Anyone else have success doing this?
Thanks,
John Campbell
