The backup included disk backups of the master database as well as the critical application databases.(Windows 2003 environment if that makes any difference. SQL Server was patched with SP3 on this machine)After the restore of course SQL server would not open because the master database was not restored.Ran RebuildM.EXE to rebuild the master database and got the message "Rebuild master failed with error -1". After that I was able to start the sqlservices in single user mode and restore the backup of the master.The Question:Do I need to be concerned with the error from rebuildm or is that somehow a successful erorr message?

It has something to do with the cd being read only media. So I make a note to only restore the master db from a hard drive by coping it off the cd first. Then I restore my master db from backup. I would think you'd be ok since you restored a version from backup after you had the error.-c Post #255466 Ken GrissomKen Grissom Posted Friday, February 3, 2006 6:54 AM SSC-Enthusiastic Group: General Forum Members Last Login: Monday, October 17, 2016 9:50 AM Points: 103, Visits: 107 Yep. I did copied the X86\Data folder off the CD onto disk and removed the read-only attribute before running REBUILDM.
thanks! - Tried it but.... My db files and rebuildm are on disk The actual directory tree will not let me remove the RedOnly on the Data dir Windows Server 2003 doesn't want me to remove it - Apply it but it just reverts back to Read Only -- tried all the way up the dir structure. I went ahead anyway and created another branch for the db files and copied them to it. I ran rebuildm - it went further but came back with a different but similar error "Rebuild Master failed with error -1: the error occurred due to a file copy failure" I didn't actually attach the new set of http://www.sqlservercentral.com/Forums/Topic255390-5-1.aspx dbs to SQL though ????
