Hi

The computer that our address book was residing on died. We were able to recover the backup file from our tandberg tape drive backups but it is not a backup created in maximizer. I have maximizer installed on another computer but it keeps looking for the address book on the computer that no longer exists. I have tried creating a new address book with the same name and restore the backup to that but that is not working either. When I add new address book it get the following message operation failed with error, failed to create ... refer to event log ... logging for MAAcess should be enabled.I have Maximer CRM 10 entreprenuer running on a windows 7 64 bit computer. Please help. I have tried uninstalling Maximizer and all of the SQL software an reinstalling with no luck. I'm am at my wits end.

Hi,
There are a number of log files to be found in c:\progam files (x86)\Maximizer\logs.

You might also find some information in the windows event log under administrative tools in the control panel.

Have a look and let me know if you can find any details of the error there.

Also please can you elaborate on the type of backup that you have. e.g. where did you get it from, what is the file type (.bak?) etc.

Thanks
I'm Sorry but I am a rookie at this. the event log didn't really help me to help you. The file is a DBF file but there is no Matching .log file. I think that there should be. Not sure how to recreate it. Do you know if Maximizer 10 entrepreneur is even compatible with Window 7? I have gone into SQL express and tried to attach the database and I get error messages there as well.
Before you can get it working in Maximizer you need to get it working in SQL.

If you can also restore the matching ldf file then you should be able to attach the database into SQL.

Otherwise you might need to try something like this (though we have never tried it).

If you are not familiar with SQL then perhaps you'd be interested in us connecting remotely and doing the work for you on a paid basis? If so then please PM me, or call on +44 345 2608801.
