I accidentally deleted a parent portal in an installation. I have a dedicated server with Jungle Disk backing it up nightly. I was able to restore the files but I need to restore the database as well. It is a mydatabase.mdf file from the previous night on my back up JD server.

Does anyone know how to restore from this rather than a .bak file?

thanks in advance,

Will Sugg

You should just need to copy the backup .mdf file over the new install .mdf file and restart.

 For solving out given condition you may use sql database recovery. It has some important features such as working with mdf files up to 16TB. The tool starts under low system requirements.
