Hi all

I am following the instalation instruction on the README to install the demo files. I get stuck at the end of step 1, with the error:

....Device activation error. The physical name 'C:\Documents and Settings\davidb\Desktop\ThePhile_Data.MDF' may be incorect...

Is the file corrupt or something?

Please help, I need to have this installed by the end of the day.

Regards

Hmm sorry about the last post.
the name of the database to be RESTORED is thephile-database-backup and its under the wrox folder that you downloaded from the website. (6934download when unzipped)

Atleast that is what I have for SQL Server / C # . If you have any sql server enterprise manager related question feel free to ask.

I managed to sort it in the end.
I needed to created two folders inside my 'Documents and Settings' folder. One folder called Davidb and another one called Desktop. After this is done then the database is restored with no problem.

The next error I get is from admin which is:
