Did the database get restored?

Well i wanted to reinstall the Toolset. Somehow in my first try i managed it ,but i cant remember anymore. Anyway the method was different from that here. When i use the batch file method, i get an error message saying

MSG 5133, Level 16 etcetc... Directory lookup for the file, c:\....\tools\toolssql\data\bw_dragonage_content.mdf. (System cant find that file.
MSG 5156 Level 15 etcetc... File "bw_dragonage_content" cannot be restored to c:\....tools\toolssql\Data\bw_dragonage_content.mdf." Use WITH MOVE to identify a valid location for the file.
Equally for ....ldf

etcetc.

I will eventually post how it really works. BTW, i added a "PAUSE" in the bat file to see the error in the first place which may help others.. the explanation for BAT files can be extensive, if this helps, and account for multiple language ofthe OS. Eshme 14:11, 3 February 2010 (UTC)

Well i got this one to work, you need to create the folders ,and 1.01 doesnt do this. BTW "C:\Program Files\DAODB\" is access denied, with no way to change it at least with Windoes XP. This is probably why the old toolset worked for me and this doesnt.

i have added a walkthrough, because i see people wondering "where to put the command?"

Anyways, the manual method create the files yet again in the folder, whereas it sais the new Toolset avoids it because a "long path" issue. What will happen in the worst case? Im unsure if that is the same as i did last time Eshme 14:11, 3 February 2010 (UTC)
