I am using B.Exec 2010R3.
I saw that my BExec Services were stopped. Upon trying to start them, the "dependency service" error repeated until I got to Device and Media Manager service. That gave me a "...server specific error code 536928979".
And...Windows eventlog showed error of "Media service could not start because the database recovery has failed"
Facts
- I have SQL Server 2008 installed on the media server.
- Servcies.msc shows a service name of "SQL Server (SQLEXPRESS)" [I would have expected to see the instance name BEXEC or similar]
- I have stopped and restarted the SQL Services
- I have run BEUtility.exe and the following options
- Check Database Consistency - failed
- Repair database - data repair failed
- Recover database and I tried all 3 recovery methods.
- Use best recovery - error, Unable to attach log files
- Drop existing database and reload from backup - error, The database linkage is bad
- Drop existing database and reload from base - error, The database linkage is bad
- I have run Rebuild Database I - error, Failed
- I have tried aAdd/Remove program of BExec- error, Could not connect to SQL Server for DB locations
- I have a BEDB.bak file in the Backup Exec\Data folder
Status
I do not know what to do next to:
1. Create a new databsae or
2. Try and get Backup Exec to start.
Thank you for any input.
