Restoring a database backup in .BAK format using SQL Server 2005

In most cases, you will be able to properly restore a SQL Server backup file in .BAK format using SQL Server 2005. But sometimes you will encounter the following error

Restore failed for Server ‘YOUR_COMPUTER_NAME’.  (Microsoft.SqlServer.Smo)

System.Data.SqlClient.SqlError: Directory lookup for the file "DRIVE:\SQL 2005\MSSQL.1\MSSQL\DATA\<<YOUR_DATABASE_NAME.mdf>>" failed with the operating system error 3(The system cannot find the path specified.). (Microsoft.SqlServer.Smo)

Follow the steps mentioned below to resolve the above mentioned error.

(1) Right click Databases tree and select Restore Database

(2) Enter a database name in "To database" field

(3) Select From Device option and click the Ellipse. Click Add button and select the database file name in .BAK format

(4) Check mark the checkbox below the Restore column

(5) Select Options section and you will find two colums titled "Original File Name" and "Restore As".

(6) The error can be fixed by changing the Restore As path for both data and log file. The correct path should be

C:\Program Files\Microsoft SQL Server\MSSQL.1\MSSQL\Data\<<DATABASE_NAME>>.mdf
C:\Program Files\Microsoft SQL Server\MSSQL.1\MSSQL\Data\<<DATABASE_NAME>>.ldf

(7) You will now be able to restore the backup without any problem.

NOTE: You need to follow the steps 5, 6 and 7 only if you encounter the above mentioned error. Otherwise, you can finish the task in Step 4 itself.

Beyond Relational Interview: Pinal Dave speaks on SQL Server 2008 Beyond Relational

Recently, Jacob Sebastian, SQL Server MVP (http://beyondrelational.com) had a chance to interview Pinalkumar Dave, SQL Server MVP (http://blog.sqlauthority.com) and a prominent authority on SQL servers. In a hour long friendly conversation with Jacob, Pinal brings forward a lot of interesting thoughts on the Beyond Relational features of SQL Server. From my point of view, this is a must read for avid SQL Server developers.

Learn how to work with SQL

SQL Server is a client-server RDBMS that uses T-SQL to send requests between a client and SQL Server.Normally, client applications are called as Front-end and SQL Server is regarded as back-end. Users may not interact with SQL Server directly. Instead, they communicate through a GUI application built using Visual Basic, Visual C++, Java, C#, HTML. SQL Server can be deployed on the web via Microsoft Active Server Pages.

Classification of T-SQL Statements

T-SQL statements are classified into three. They are

Data Definition Language (DDL)
Data Manipulation Language (DML)
Data Control Language (DCL)
Data Definition Language

With the help of DDL statements, you can create and alter database objects like Tables, Rules etc like Create Table, Drop Table, Alter Table. We will examine these in a another tutorial.

Data Manipulation Language

DML statements enables you to change data and retrieve information from tables like Select, Insert, Update and Delete

Data Control Langauge

DCL statements allows you to set, change permissions for security purposes like Grant, Deny and Revoke.

In order to apply T-SQL statements, you have to learn SQL syntax. For example, to create a database and a table, you have to apply the syntax for creating the same. For each and every purpose, database operations there are syntaxes. Having said this, now you may ask a question where to apply these syntaxes.

Well. SQL Server provides a tool called SQL Server Query Analyzer with which you can effectively code SQL syntaxes. It supports color coding and lot of other features. Also, SQL Server provides another utility called osql. It runs from the command prompt. That means you can control clients activities from the DOS prompt.
