I am in a shop that is running SQL 7.0 in production and in development. However, we are now extensively using SQL 2000 in the development area. The problem that I keep having and have not been able to resolve relates the following error message: Server: ( Msg 18757, Level 16, State 1, Procedure sp_repldone, Line 333 The database is not published. ) This occurs when I attempt to take a SQL backup device created by a SQL 7.0 / NT 4.0 server and perform a restore to a SQL 2000 / Windows 2000 server. The restore completes and creates the objects, but fails at the end of the process. This occurs both through the EM and through a T-SQL restore command. I have looked everywhere for a detailed description of the above error message, but have had no luck. Has anyone seen this? Also...what can I do to get around it?
