You have a database in MS SQL that is tagged as (suspect) and you are unable to connect to the database.
The database could have become corrupted.
- There is not enough space available for the SQL Server to recover the database during startup.
- The database cannot be opened due to inaccessible files or insufficient memory or disk space.
- The database files are being held by operating system, third party backup software etc.
- There was an unexpected SQL Server Shutdown, power failure or a hardware failure.
- Open Microsoft SQL Server Management Studio and connect to your database
- Click the New Query button
- Paste the following SQL script into your New Query page replacing [YourDatabase] with the name of your database.
EXEC
sp_resetstatus [YourDatabase];
ALTER
