  • Looks pretty clear

    Could not open file D:\DB\Data\master.mdf for file number 1. OS error: 5(Access is denied.).

    SQL doesn't have permission on the file, or probably the folder.

    Thanks for your quick reply

    It is local drive ..

    How i can identify SQL having permission or not to that folder?

  • The error message tells you clearly that SQL doesn't have permission. You need to go to that folder and grant the SQL Server service account full rights to the folder and all files in it. Ask your sysadmin if you don't have permission to change folder security or don't know how to do it.
