copy database

  • I am trying to copy a database from sql 2000 to sql 2005. I used the copy database feature and followed the instructions to the letter. When the SSIS package run, it fails. It tells me to check te error log, but it doesn't explain why it's failing. Please help me find why. I'm told that I can use backup and restore to achieve the same task but I can't find out the steps to do this. Please help

    Thanks

  • There's a virtual lab available from Microsoft that covers this situation. I believe it's free, you just have to put up with a follow-up call from Microsoft. The lab should contain detailed instructions and it'll give you a chance to go through the steps in a completely safe environment:

  • Hi Jennifer,

     

    Could you give us the exact error message, or some additionnal informations so someone could help you.

  • That's just it; when I execute the ssis package, it doesn't run or give me a reason why.
