I gave backup folder path and BI4_CMC.db then it asked about what is the directory and path name where you want to restore the main database file ? I gave c:Program Files (x86)\BusinessObjects\sqlanywhere\database\BI_CMC.db after that RESTORE DATABASE 'c:\Program Files (x86)\BusinessObjects\sqlanywhere\database\BI4_CMC.db' FROM 'c:\SQLanywhereBackup\BI4_CMC.db' I press Finsh Button it gave me error The Database archive 'c:\SQLanywhereBackup\BI4_CMC.db' Could not be restored on the Server' _sc739059084'.

The file 'c:\SQLanywhereBackup\BI4_CMC.db' is probably an image backup rather than an archive backup and you can only use the RESTORE DATABASE statement for archive backups. An image backup is much easier to restore: You just do a file copy to the folder where you want it run it, along with the 'c:\SQLanywhereBackup\BI4_CMC.log', and start the server. No special statement is required to "restore" an image backup because it is a usable database file itself. Thankx a lot Breck for guidance, I also taken backup from Sybase Cental Tool database backup when I restore it its resotr but when I start database ( service from windows ) datbase not start I don't how to find the log what is the problem not erro shown in restore but I can not find resore logs or message. regards

There should be something in the Windows Application Log if the service can't start. If you don't understand what it says, please post it here.

You might want to configure the database engine to write a log file. This will help to analyze why the DB couldn't be started. Example: -o C:\Temp\SA12log.txt -os 2M -oe C:\temp\SA12err.txt
