Yes, I have spent about three hours going piece-by-piece through the Toolset wiki to try and fix my problem. I've reinstalled the toolset twice as well as the SQL, then manually installed the SQL by itself then reinstalled the Toolset manually and unchecked both the "Install SQL" and the "Restore" option on the Toolset installation screen to try and oversee it myself, and I get as far as attempting to create the database manually in the SQL Studio Express when I get this error while trying to restore the "bw_dragonage_content.bak" database:



Considering I have not found anything in the wiki about this error or how to fix it, I'm turning to the forums in hopes someone can assist me here. I've gotten pretty far, I'd like to think, and if I could just figure out how to get past this roadblock I'll happily be on my way to finishing up the rest of the manual installation on my own. I am a very patient person, but this has just gotten ridiculous to the point where I don't know what to do, and any help would be appreciated!

Thank you guys!

*pokes the thread* Still no leeway... unless my problem is unsolvable, which I'd even be grateful for someone to tell me that. D|

How did you create the database manually?

I followed the directions through the wiki tutorial from the website here: http://social.biowar...se_installation

I couldn't connect through the BWDATOOLSET when I started up the Studio, so I tried the troubleshoot option by going through SQLEXPRESS.

I get as far as making the database, but when I try to restore the .bak files (like it says) this is the error I get on my screen that I showed in the screenshot for my first post. I don't know what to do at this point.

I assume you selected the Overwrite option when restoring the database?

It's also quite possible that your database location is different than the location from which the bw_dragonage_content.bak was exported. If so, instead of going through the Studio, try doing it via command prompt (I assume you are running some flavor of Win7? If so, make sure you run the command prompt as administrator).

sqlcmd -S .\\BWDATOOLSET -E -Q "RESTORE DATABASE bw_dragonage_content FROM DISK = '(folder path)\\bw_dragonage_content.bak' WITH REPLACE, MOVE 'bw_da_content_euts_Data' TO '(database file location folder path)\\bw_dragonage_content.mdf', MOVE 'bw_da_content_euts_Log' TO '(database file location folder path)\\bw_dragonage_content.ldf'"

The (folder path) above is the location of your .bak file
The (database file location folder path) is the path where your blank database's mdf and ldf are located. You can get this by clicking on the database and selecting properties, I think (I tried to find the exact menu using Studio now but it is unable to connect to my database )
In a typical installation, it should be under C:\\Program Files\\DAODB\\Data
If x64 system, then Program File (x86) instead of Program Files.

Hopefully, the above works. Let us know

Edit: Stupid forum code converts single slashes to double.

I had the "unable to connect to database" error and I followed the instructions here:

http://social.biowar...er_Installation

And it restore the database properly.

I don't know if this is the same problem you have
