I have done this many times in the past but now I am seeing a error when I try to move my db from my local machine to the server and try to re attach it. The error I am receiving is:

When I right click the files and check their permissions I am noticing when its moved to the server it adds a few new ones and I can't make changes to them or anyting else. That is the only difference I am seeing from the ones I did earlier this week and now with the ones that are not working. I can't find anything in sql on what might cause this so any direction would be great.
ThanksRusty
What problems could be invoked by stopping SQL Server and copying a user databases data and log files and pasting these files over existing files on another machine.
Ex:
MyDB on Server1
MyDB on Server2
Stop SQL Server Server1 and Server2
Copy Server1.MyDB files
Over write Server2.MyDB files
Start SQL Server Server1 and Server2
Make sense. This scenerio seems to work but wonder what side affects could result.
Any comments would be helpful!!

Can anybody help me with this?

Dear All,
We have a DB on sql server 2000 64 bit and the build is 2187.
The database consisted of two transaction log files and several data files at the time we took backup. However, the backup taken was a cold backup (backup of files through OS). In this backupset, one transaction log file was skipped due to some error...... Now I want to restore the database for referring to some history data. Will I be able to attach the database with all MDF and one of the transaction log files.??
I heard this kind of recovery is not possible. If anybody can post some solution , I would be grateful...!!
Regards,
Chetan
Hi,
My last post was terminated without the error message. To recap, I am unable to re-attach a database to a SQL server 2000 server after I detached it and attached it to a 2005 Server. When I detached it from the 2005 server and tried to re-attach it to the 2000 server I got the following error message:
" Error 5123: CREATE FILE encountered operating system error 5(Access denied) while attempting to create the physical file ..."
I tried using both the 2005 Server Management Studio and the 2000 Enterprise manager to do the re-attachement but got the same error message.
Any ideas on how I can reattach the files?
Thanks for your help.

Hi,
View 5 Replies View RelatedHi,
I've got a question regarding attaching/restoring of DBs and wonder if anyone could help me out.
Does SQL Server 2000 provide a functionality to attach/restore DB automatically? ie, some kind of polling service to attach/restore DB that were detached previously?
Thanks

I am trying to attach a network database to my sql server express
After some reading I "Enabled" tcp/ip, named pipes, and shared memory in sql server confiuration manager.
But when I go to "Attach Database" in Sql Express managemnent studio. It does not show the network drives much less allow me to attach anything on a network drive.
What am I missing here?
If I install sql server on the network machine will my local Sql express recognize it?

Is there a difference between MS SQL Server 2005 and SQL Server 2005 Express Edition
I have a data file, call it Data.mdf, that I am accessing through Visual Studio. It does not show up in SQL Server 2000 Enterprise Manager.
How can I get it assigned to, or imported into, the local server so I can manage it?
Thanks

View 1 Replies View RelatedI m facing a strange phenomenon.
Please refer to below points.
environment:
------------------
windows XP sp2
SQL Server 2005 express [log on as 'network service'(by default)]
programming language: VC++(MFC)
There is a sample database in .mdf format which to be attached to SQL Server.
Ist case:
------------
I add MASTERDSN (for master databse) to ODBC by calling API SQLConfigDataSource() and then attach the sample DB to SQL Server by calling stored procedure 'sp_attach_db' through VC++ code.
On verification from SQL Server management studio express, the DB attached is in read only mode.
II case:
----------
I add MASTERDSN using ODBC data source administrator manually.
Now I add MASTERDSN (again with same name) by calling API SQLConfigDataSource() and then attach the DB to SQL Server by calling stored procedure 'sp_attach_db' through VC++ code.
Now on verification, the DB attached is not in read-only mode.
The problem is that why there is difference in behavior in both cases?
I want to get the sample DB attached in read-write mode in Ist case.
Hopefully waiting for ur response.
Thanks & Regards

Now that everyone helped me install SQL Server, it's time to use it... then...
I'm trying to work my through the MS Press book ADO.Net Step by Step. After installing the practice files, there is a step to attach the sample database provided. Within the folder which contains the sample files, I'm told to execute an app which I believe was called "Config.exe". This app brings up a form with 3 text-boxes, to collect the Server Name, Database Name, as well as the Database MDF Filename. There are also 2 buttons, "Attach" and "Detach".
This book assumes, that SQL Server Express is installed. In the book, the author does mention that if this isn't the case, to adjust the Server Name as necessary.
(The following do not include the quotes, but you probably already knew that...)
In the form mentioned above, the default Server Name is "(local)SQLEXPRESS",
I changed this to "(local)MSSQLSERVER".
The next text-box for Database Name contains: "AdoStepbyStep"
The last text-box for Database MDF Filename contains: "c:ADO.NET 2.0 SBSSampleDBsAdoStepbyStep_Data.MDF"
The path/spelling of the text in the above is indeed correct. Clicking the "Attach" button, results in the following:
--- ERROR ---
Function: AttachDB
Description: [Microsoft][ODBC SQL Server Driver][DBMSLPCN]InvalidConnection.
[Microsoft][ODBC SQL Server Driver][DBMSLPCN]ConnectionOpen (ParseConnectParams()).
I've never used SQL Server, so please any advice needs to be at a relatively elementary level. I've primarily been a mainframe programmer, so this is new to me.
Thanxxxxxxxxxxxxx in advance for any replies!!!
I am having a problem Attaching, well actually not being able to see a database when attempting to attach it. I suspect this is more of a security issue rather than a problem with Management Studio, but I can't figure out what is happening.
If I copy a database to Documents and SettingsAll Users... and attempt to attach I can see the file in the selection tree. This also is the case if I copy it to Documents and SettingsDefault User... But if I copy it to Documents and SettingsADynarski... which is the account I normally log into, when I expand the folder in the selection tree, nothing is visible. And the same thing occurs if I copy the file to Documents and SettingsGuest...
I've looked at the security settings and everything appears to be normal. This is on a box with XP Home and SQL Server Express. Can anyone tell me what I'm missing?
Thanks,

P. S. I do not have Microsoft Visual Studio 2005. Walkthrough: Install the AdventureWorks Database (http://msdn2.microsoft/en-us/library/ms31035.aspx) : To confirm your SQL Server data directory (Start=>All Programs, Microsoft Visual Studio 2005, Visual Studio Tools, Visual Studio 2005 Command Prompt) steps 1 thru 4 can not be applied to my SQL Server Management Studio Express. I read an SQL Express post dated 19 April 2006 and learned the above-mentioned way to attach the AdventureWorks database in the SQL Server Management Studio Express. But that way does not work for me.
After i reinstall SQL Server 2005 Express on my local machine, and then tried to attach AdventureWorks_Data.mdf into Database, it gives me the following error:
Mark up:
I tried to reinstall the Adventureworks.msi installer and reattach again in SQL Server 2005 Express, it gave me the same error.

I had few databases developed in SQL Server 2005 Developer Edition. I have detached all the databases and stopped developing anything new other than taking reqular backup of detached .mdf and .ldf files. I installed Vista on the other Hard drive that corrupted my XP installation drive letters so I had to reinstall XP OS. I have reinstalled SQL 2005 Dev edition. Now I am trying to attach the database it is giving error of Operating system error 5: "5(Access is denied.)". I tried to copy those .mdf and .Ldf files through windows explorer and it is not letting me copy past in the other place. I am getting Access denied from OS. I have about 5 databases and only one has this problem.
What is going on and how do I solve this? Is the OS has locked the file? My home computer is not in a domain. I tried to right click the file to see if I can set access permission on the file. There is no such security options. Any help is appreciated.
Thanks,
Vijay
