Hello everyone.

Here i have a big problem may be no one gone with this issue(hope not to go) Issue is my system crashed out.
DNN setup is setted in c:/Inetpub/wwwroot/dnntest/
Befor it crashe, i taken a backup of database ( think smart :) ) the day before & database was on SQL 2005 Server.

I start from scratch Installed New version of DNN 04.09.05(old 04.09.04) and SQL Express 2008,
Now I am wondering, if there is any possible solution that restoreing the backup of database on the new installtion will work, then what steps to start? with out going to strat from begining. :(  23 pages were created,

Thanks in advance

Hi.

I had the same prob some months ago. For heavens sake i had a backup, too.

But you will have some issues and work to do, as you don't have a file-backup. Then it would be pretty easy.

However, you have choosen the hard way (sorry)

1) create a new (empty) DB
2) Install DNN as usual (Don't use another version as you used for the DB, you can make an upgrade afterwards
3) Install all modules you used prior to the crash
4) restore the old DB and point your web.config to it

This should go. As stated before, when doing a backup, backup everything. E.g. with the easy to use and free Backup Module from DNNINFO.COM

Good look

Kai

Hi,

I created new DB and instling DNN(4.9.4) got stuck at DB connection, getting error:
Index #: 0
Source: .Net SqlClient Data Provider
Class: 11
Number: 4064
Message: Cannot open user default database. Login failed.

Index #: 1
Source: .Net SqlClient Data Provider
Class: 14
Number: 18456
Message: Login failed for user 'NT AUTHORITY\NETWORK SERVICE'.

Index #: 2
Source: .Net SqlClient Data Provider

Message: File activation failure. The physical file name "C:\inetpub\wwwroot\DNN-Local\App_Data\Database_log.ldf" may be incorrect.

I have given NETWORK SERVICES permission to all the files and folders, the thing is i cant see the file Database_log.ldf in "App_Data" folder.
