Re: transfering database contents



Hi,

I think you might get the problem because of the folder structure.. Try using WITH MOVE parameter in restore command to restore the physical files to the correct path. Consider you have the database files in C:\Data in the production server and if you restore the database backup in development using the command below then you need to make sure C:\Data folder exists in development server or else use WITH MOVE parameter in restore command to restore the files to different path in development.

RESTORE DATABASE dbname FROM DISK='BACKUP PATH'

As Mark said please post the error message so that we can help you better.

Thanks,
Vidhya Sagar

Hi JRL,

Thank you for using Microsoft MSDN Managed Newsgroup. My name is Mark Han.
I am glad to work with you on this issue.

From your description, I understand that you would like to migrate the
membership database from the product server to the development server
If I have misunderstood, please let me know.

in order to address your concern, I would like to explain the following
1 Backup/restore is the suggested method to migrate a database. Based on
your description, I know that you meet an issue when restoring the backup
file on develop server. So please post the error message, I will try to
help to fix the issue.

2 Besides, we know you try to import data from produce server into develop
database. it is also a way to migrate the database. However it seems that
you meet an connection issue. So, if it is convenient to you, please post
the error message, too.

please try to use copy wizard to copy the database from produce server to
the development server to check if this way will work.

Based on my experience, this kind of issue might be a little complex. I
need to collect more information to diagnose the issue. So if it is
convenient to you, please send me an email and then I will create a
workspace for you to upload the required files.
