Ok, I'm nowhere near an expert with databases, but I have MS SQL 2005 on server 2008r2 and needing to upgrade to sql 2014. What I have done so far is done a fresh install of sql 2014 alongside of 2005, backed up my current database and then tried to restore it in 2014. When I try to restore it, I get an error '5(access is denied)' while attempting 'RestoreContainer::ValidateTargetForCreation' on 'M:\Meals Plus Data\MealsPlusDB.mdf'. (Microsoft.SqlServer.SmoExtended)
This is the same username that I installed sql 2014 with so I know that I am supposed to have complete access here. Any ideas? Did I do something completely wrong here?
