Hi,
I am upgrading my SQL Server 2005 database to SQL Server 2016 so I am trying to use backup and restore.
So I have created stop point to SQL Server 2008 SP2 where I am going to restore my database at 2008 box, upgrade it and move to 2016
Now when I try to restore database from SQL Server 2005 to SQL Server 2008 SP2 I am getting error.
Msg 3241, Level 16, State 0, Line 6
The media family on device 'c:\temp\backupname.bak' is incorrectly formed. SQL Server cannot process this media family.
Msg 3013, Level 16, State 1, Line 6
VERIFY DATABASE is terminating abnormally.
I have checked all possibility
- I have access to location
- I am able to restore database SQL 2005.
- I have check version I am moving database from Enterprise to Enterprise
Please help me
