Copy Database Login Timout Expired

Hi,

I get the following error when I use the Copy Database Wizard. Tried searching for solutions but didn't find anything. One thing that caught my attention during the wizard was the "Package Location" dir. In my wizard it is greyed out and when I go to look on the server, that is where I am copying the database onto, that directory doesn't exist. Maybe that is causing it? I don't know. Really frustarted here. This looks like a very generic error to me but I don't know where to look because I'm still a M$ server newbie here. Thanks for your help.

While trying to find a folder on SQL an OLE DB error was encountered with error code 0x80004005 (Login timeout expired).

Is this a really simple question that no one wants to answer? I ask because I saw someone else who posted the exact same problem and was never answered?

Thanks

Unfortunately, there aren't enough details for us to answer the question.

What version of SQL Server are you using? If you run "SELECT @.@.Version" you will see what is installed.

We have made vast improvements in the Copy Database Wizard for SQL Server 2005 SP2. A CTP of SP2 will be released soon.

Hi,

This is my version: Microsoft SQL Server 2005 - 9.00.1399.06 (Intel X86) Oct 14 2005 00:33:37 Copyright (c) 1988-2005 Microsoft Corporation Developer Edition on Windows NT 5.1 (Build 2600: Service Pack 2).

I've found another way to do what I want it to do so I'm fine for now. I will wait for SP2.

Thank you.
