Restoring Business Contact Manager Database After Upgrading XP to Vista

When you upgrade from XP to Vista and try to restore previously backed up BCM database, you might see permission related error. This is caused by mismatch between the user information stored in backup file and actual user account after upgrade to Vista. In BCM, a back-up database can be restored by the user who created database (called Database Owner) or computer administrator. After machine has been upgraded to Vista, SQL might complain that the user information stored in backup file is not valid. You can resolve this issue by explicitly running Outlook.exe process as administrator. Browse to Outlook.exe file in the folder where you installed Office, right click Outlook.exe and select "Run as Admin".

You need to run Outlook as admin only once. After successful migration, you can start Outlook normally and use BCM.

    An alternative to "browse to Outlook.exe file in the folder where you installed Office" would be that on Vista, you can right-click on the Outlook icon on your Quick Launch bar and select "Run as administrator".  You can right-click on your Taskbar | Toolbars, if you don't have Quick Launch bar visible.HTH,Sunem

    After upgrading to MS Vista Business from XP my BCM does not work and comes up with the following messages when i try to open Outlook 07:Business Contact Manager for Outlook could not connect to the shared database. Do you want to work offline?Yes/No, then i click yes the following message comes up:Business Contact Manager for OutlookBusiness Contact Manager database cannot be loaded. This action cannot be completed because Business Contact Manager cannot access the database. The database is currently stopped. Do you want to change the database configuration?Yes   No (when i choose yes, the following message comesup):Business Contact Manager for OutlookThis action cannot be completed because Business Contact Manager cannot access the database.An error has occurred while establishing a connection to the server.  When connecting to SQL Server 2005, this failure may be caused by the fact that under the default settings SQL Server does not allow remote connections. (provider: SQL Network Interfaces, error: 26 - Error Locating Server/Instance Specified)OK  can you please advice on how i can fix the problem and get BCM work with Outlook 07  sorry for being novice..any help is highly appreciated..thank you..rupesh

    rupeshsns, I am not sure what problem you are facing, but it sounds like SQL Server cannot find your BCM database.Here are a few suggestions... I am not guarentee if they will work:Use Windows Update and see if there is any patch for SQL Server.  It maybe that SQL Server needs an updateIf you are using remote desktop connection, or if you are connecting your BCM client to a database hosted on a different machine, it may be the enhanced Vista security that's preventing SQL Server from being reached.  I do not have specific instruction on how this should be fixed, but it may be one of the reasons... Let me know if updating SQL Server turns out to be the solution.  Hope that helps,Sunem

    rupeshsns -I encountered the sample problem as you when I upgraded from XP to Vista a few days ago.It is definitely a permission issue. The solution I used was to change the Log On property in the SQL server service for the business contact manager database instance (MSSMLBIZ). I changed it from the Network Service account to log on the Local System Account.I tried changing the permissions for Network Service for the folder containing the BCM database. I did not have any success going that route.There is probably a better solution out there, but this one worked for me.Mark

    During setup of new Vista notebook with Office 2007, I used a backup copy of Outlook 2003 Bus. Contact Manager. Installed it successfully into an instance of SQL Express 2005 on the new notebook.During setup of Outlook 2007 BCM, found the SQL Express instance and the prior version OK, but could not get it to update.Tried several of the above suggestions without success. Finally, restored a copy of the old BCM to the second instance of SQL Express created on the install of BCM to Outlook 2007. Had use the SQL Express Properties > Files on the restored BCM DB to change the ownership to my new notebook logon account.Started up Outlook again. Update Wizard went through without a hitch.Hope this helps.A. Simon Mielniczuk

    I'm getting a data conversion error when trying to restore 2003 SP4 BCM Data to a new install on Vista/outlook 2007.  The wizard first displays that the program has to migrate data created in version 2.0.3606.0 to version 3.0.5625.0.  when Ok'd the restoral bar comes up and runs to about 3/4 of the way down ond stops.  After a bit the Migrating database progrss bar comes up and goes about a quarter of the way down and stops.  Then I get this error after the wizard states that the migration was unsuccessful:Problem signature: Problem Event Name: BCM Problem Signature 01: Addin Problem Signature 02: IrisDbException Problem Signature 03: 3.0.5828.0 Problem Signature 04: 12.0.4518.1014 Problem Signature 05: DoMigrate Problem Signature 06: InternalTryToConvert Problem Signature 07: 6265D0F1 OS Version: 6.0.6000.2.0.0.256.6 Locale ID: 1033Additional information about the problem: LCID: 1033I've tried the 'run as admin' solution, and the SQL fixes suggested here.  Any help would be appreciated.BH

    I opened Outlook as administrator and was able to restore the BCM database to Outlook. However, when I open Outlook, normally, with my log in account name (also an administrator), I get an error message:"Business Contact Manager for Outlook could not complete your last action or actions. Please try again."No number of retries seems to fix the problem. I opened Outlook as administrator, again, and did not receive any error messages and the BCM database looks okay.

    Most recently removed BCM database (File - Data File Management - delete BCM database) in Outlook opened in Run as Administrator mode.Closed Outlook then opened in normal mode - added BCM back in and all contacts were there.Shut down Outlook, restarted in normal mode (with log-in as administrator, not in administrator mode) and got the old error message again."Business Contact Manager for Outlook could not complete your last action or actions. Please try again."Also, seems to have messed up my indexes in Outlook. Contacts not indexed in Outlook Contacts.

    Start Outlook as administrator. You can do that by right clicking on C:Program FilesMicrosoft OfficeOffice12OUTLOOK.EXE and selecting "Run as Administrator". Try restoring the DB after that. You will need to do "Run as Admin" only once when you are restoring an old DB.

    If you are unable to restore your .sbb or .msbcm backup after trying the above workaround, follow the steps below:1.) Make a copy of the .sbb or .msbcm backup file and rename it with a .zip extension.2.) Open the .zip file and extract the files3.) You'll see a file that contains a version number (e.g. en-US#3.0.5625.0)4.) Rename this file to the name of your backed up database and add a .bak extension (e.g. MSSmallBusiness.bak)5.) Follow the instructions to restore a BCM database from an automatic SQL backup:http://blogs.msdn.com/bcm/archive/2007/09/06/restoring-an-automatic-sql-backup.aspx~ Clinton Ford

    Hi. I had a .bcm file (Outlook 2007 in English) on a computer with Windows XP Professional also in English where I had administrator privileges and now I'm trying to import that .bcm file to a different computer with Windows Vista Home Basic in Spanish where I also have administrator privileges and Office 2007 in English. I'm giving you all this information just in case it makes sense. I get the following error "Some errors occurred while your data was being imported. Wrong file version." I tried running Outlook as administrator and the importing doesn't work either. I get the same error.What can I do? any ideas?

    Hello Vinit I have found out how to select the Administrator account by following these instructions: Shut down the computer for a cold boot. Tap the "F8" key as you are booting. Select "Safe Mode with networking" from the boot menu. Log into windows Vista with your personal account that holds the administrator access. Open a command window (START--->RUN--->CMD.exe). At the command prompt type the following "net user administrator /active". And that’s it. Log out and log back in as administrator. Sadly even logging in specifically as the Administrator I get the same results. Any help would be appreciated. Regards Nigel

The issues is that I have the BCM database (outlook 2003) in one pc using windows xp, when I try to connect to it from another xp pc it works fine. However, when I'm trying to connect from a vista with outlook 2003 I do not have the option to select the location of the BCM, I one have the option to create a new one or connect to a local one. Is it possible to connect from vista? Thanks!! Daniel

    Hi, I bought a new pc running vista business 32 bit some time ago and migrated all of my Office 2003 Professional except BCM, which I could not get to work    at all at the time. Having come back to it now, I have  a) installed BCM, b) installed SP3 (as SP4 on its own failed) and then c) installed SP4. Now when I try to open Outlook the BCM wizard fails either to upgrade the old database or to create a new one. Having anticipated problems, I have all along been opening Outlook as administrator. I have also checked that SQL server 2005 is running and that the old BCM database file exists. Do you have any suggestions? Alan Watson PS. I also have SQL server 2008 installed on my PC. Could this be the cause of any conflict?

    ID'ed a problem. When you have a BCM contact with two of the same email, i.e. Email 1 and Email 2 or 3 are the same email address, you cannot remove search and link (for history) without locking up Outlook and causing BCM critial error upon task manager hard reboot. Solution is to check and to confirm that all BCM contacts have unique email addresses before trying to remove search and link for contacts (note: folders not an issue). Some of my BCM error log, which I think contains error info, is pasted below. Microsoft should fix this. ] [13:32:41.0343592]Iris.Mapi.MessageStore: MAPIException: hresult=0xffffffff8004010f, message: [V] [13:32:41.0343592]Iris.Mapi.MessageStore: [V]

    I’m running all of this under XP Pro SP3. I am trying to move my Business Contact Manager ver. 2003 to Business Contact Manager ver. 2010. I have gone to www.howto-outlook.com/.../backupandrestorebcm.htm and followed the instructions. In BCM 2003, I went to Business Tools > Manage Database and ran Check for Errors 1st then ran Backup Database. Then I transferred the backup file to the machine with BCM 2010. In BCM 2010, I went to File-> Business Contact Manager-> BackUp and Restore. Selected Restore , it told me I have to “migrate” from version 2.0.3606.0 to version 4.0.9812.0 Clicked “OK” and after a while I get the “Database Migration Unsuccessful” message. The “How-To-Outlook” site doesn’t address this error. Now what do I do????????? As info,  the Export / Import features destroys the “Creation Date” in the BCM records.   By “Destroys” I mean it sets the Creation Date to the date of the Import. Keeping the Creation Date intact is very important to me as it allows me to select records based on when they were added. Oddly, Creation Date is not one of the fields that are preserved in one of the “backup” methods and I think it’s the Export / Import one. Modification Date is preserved but it changes whenever you “touch” a record.  For example, if you correct a typo or update an address the Modification Date is updated. I have also run the BCM 2003 backup through the BCM DB Tool 2007 and it works. But when I backup the BCM 2007 DB and Restore with the BCM DB Tool 2010 it fails with the “Database Migration Unsuccessful” message. H E L P ! ! ! ! !
