Hi,

I am using SQL Server 2008 and I have three SQL Server instances installed and I am trying to move the model and msdb system databases of only one instance.

I have added -T3608;-m;-c startup parameters from configuration manager for that specific instance and I have restarted the service.

I have followed the same steps as described in the following link : http://support.microsoft.com/default.aspx?scid=kb;en-us;224071

I am getting these error msgs whenever I try to attach and detach the model and msdb databases using sp_detach 'model' and sp_attach_db <<path to mdf and ldf>>.

“Cannot detach an opened database when the server is in minimally configured mode” when trying to sp_detach_db ‘model’.

*** and the database instance service is getting stopped automatically and soon after that I am getting the following error msg if I try to execute sp_attach_db .

"A transport-level error has occurred when receiving results from the server. (provider: Shared Memory Provider, error: 0 - The pipe has been ended.)"

I don't know why the database instance service is getting stopped automatically.

I have checked everything I could ie TCP/IP (enabled),named pipes(enabled),... but nothing worked.

Do I need to make any other settings before starting the process?

Please reply to this post as early as possible. Thanks in advance.

Martyn

I think you may have a look at the SQL Server 2008 procedure described here:
