Hi,

I am getting the following

Error executing 'RESTORE' task on 'test' SQL_DATABASE --->

System.Web.Services.Protocols.SoapException: Server was unable to process request. --->

System.Data.SqlClient.SqlException:

Cannot open backup device 'C:UsersSCPServerAppDataLocalTempGTFS-Beta.bak'.

Operating system error 5(Access is denied.).

 

What permissions does the AppData folder need?

Hello,

In this case the folder:
C:UsersSCPServerAppDataLocalTemp  needs read/write/modify for the user: SCPServer if i remember correctly.

Regards,

Marco

hmm well a quick solution would be to allow everyone but that doesn't seem too secure haha.

can you try the mssql user? (found in the services settings of mssql)

Adding Users seems to do the trick 🙂

Ah thank you for that report 🙂
Hopefully we can get a manual up for that soon so it becomes more easy for everyone 🙂

Apart from SCPServer user, you need to make sure that the Logon user under which SQL server is running has read, write, modify permissions on this folder. If you have SQL express with default installation, it should be NT ServiceMSSQL$SQLEXPRESS by default.
