I just installed SQL Server 2012. But I cannot install this database either from script or from MDF file. When I try to install it from script, I get the error:
Loading [Person].[Address] Msg 4861, Level 16, State 1, Line 4 Cannot bulk load because the file "C:\Program Files\Microsoft SQL Server\MSSQL11.MSSQLSERVER\Tools\Samples\AdventureWorks 2012 OLTP Script\Address.csv" could not be opened. Operating system error code 3(The system cannot find the path specified.). ** An error was encountered during execution of batch. Exiting.
I commented this table out, but then I got errors on the tables after this. Only part of this database was installed. I checked and I do not see a Tools\Samples directory anywhere on my computer!
Next, I dropped this database and then I tried
CREATE DATABASE AdventureWorks2012 ON (FILENAME = '{drive}:\{file path}\AdventureWorks2012_Data.mdf') FOR ATTACH_REBUILD_LOG;
But this gave me an error:
File activation failure. The physical file name "C:\Program Files\Microsoft SQL Server\MSSQL11.MSSQLSERVER\MSSQL\DATA\AdventureWorks2012_Log.ldf" may be incorrect. New log file 'C:\Program Files\Microsoft SQL Server\MSSQL11.MSSQLSERVER\MSSQL\DATA\AdventureWorks2012_log.ldf' was created. Converting database 'AdventureWorks2012' from version 705 to the current version 706. Database 'AdventureWorks2012' running the upgrade step from version 705 to version 706.
How can I install this database? And yes, I followed the instructions here:
