Question

User1145041490 posted

I need to upload a backup of the CLASSIFIEDSDB.mdf for my webhost to restore to my database, when i try to back it up my MSSQL 2008 says access is denied. It is a new site and database file. I have checked all the permissions i can find. Can anyone point me to where exactly access is denied at?

Thanks,

Shellei

Hi,

 I did that and although it didn't fix it I got a different error message which led me to move the files out of inetpub\wwroot  and then it worked.

Thank You so much for your help!
