The transaction log for database 'AfterMail_TEMP' is full due to 'LOG_BACKUP'.

I am getting error The transaction log for database 'AfterMail_TEMP' is full due to 'LOG_BACKUP'.

I checked the SQl server and it seems the disk where i placed after_mail log files has grown large and is full. How to move or generate new files in another disk location ?

  • Certainly, you can move or generate new transaction log files for the AfterMail_TEMP database to another disk location to address the full disk issue. Here's how to do it:

    Method 1: Using ALTER DATABASE

      1. Attach the database: If the database is currently detached, attach it using SQL Server Management Studio (SSMS). Right-click on the Databases folder, select "Attach", and browse to the AfterMail_TEMP database file (.MDF).

      1. Modify the transaction log file path: Open a new query window in SSMS and execute the following command, replacing "D:\AfterMail\Logs" with the desired location for the new transaction log files:

    SQL
    ALTER DATABASE AfterMail_TEMP
    MODIFY FILE (NAME = LDF1, FILENAME = 'D:\AfterMail\Logs\AfterMail_TEMP.LDF')


      1. Restart the SQL Server service: Restart the SQL Server service to apply the changes to the transaction log file path. This will cause the database to start using the new log files in the specified location.

    Method 2: Using RESTORE WITH MOVE

      1. Create a backup: Take a full backup of the AfterMail_TEMP database using the RESTORE DATABASE statement, specifying a backup device and the WITH MOVE option to move the transaction log files to the desired location.
    SQL
    RESTORE DATABASE AfterMail_TEMP
    FROM DISK = 'D:\AfterMail\Backups\AfterMail_TEMP.bak'
    WITH MOVE 'AfterMail_TEMP' TO 'D:\AfterMail\Logs\AfterMail_TEMP.LDF',
      MOVE 'AfterMail_TEMP_mod' TO 'D:\AfterMail\Logs\AfterMail_TEMP_mod.LDF'


      1. Detach and attach the database: Detach the database using SSMS and then attach it again. This will ensure that the database is using the newly created transaction log files in the specified location.

    Remember to restart the SQL Server service after detaching and attaching the database.

    Once you have moved the transaction log files to another disk location, you should periodically monitor the disk space usage to ensure that there is enough space available for the log files to grow. You can also consider implementing a log shipping strategy to offload the transaction log backups omegle to shagle a separate server or storage location to further optimize space utilization.
