  1. Hi,
    Has anyone been able to restore a Discount ASP.NET SQLServer 2000 Backup to their local SQLServer ? I'm referring to the backup you can create from the 'Tools' tab in their database area of the control panel.

    Any assistance would be appreciated [​IMG]
     
  2. Whats the problem you are having?
     
  3. I'm just not exactly sure how to do this... I have a basic local installation but when you go into the restore option via Enterprise Manager I don't see where you can just select any file...such as the .bak file created with the discount ASP.NET backup tool.


    If command line is the only way.... I can give that a try.


    Thanks!
     
  4. Got it.... just created a local DB first using the same exact name as hosted on discout ASP.Net .... then used TSQL in Query Analyzer to run the following command:


    RESTORE DATABASE DB_315834_members
    FROM DISK = 'C:\Backups\DB_315834_members_backup.bak'

    Technical you can restore the backup created on our server but it is not very straight forward. A lot of command line things you have to do depending on how your setup your local server.

  6. I'm getting this error:

    The backup set holds a backup of a database other than the existing 'Travel' database.

    any suggestions?
