Question:
I restored a db from my production environment.After that step certain things became strange. It was for example now impossible to install diagram support.
I always receive this error.
TITLE: Microsoft SQL Server Management Studio ------------------------------ Database diagram support objects cannot be installed because this database does not have a valid owner. To continue, first use the Files page of the Database Properties dialog box or the ALTER AUTHORIZATION statement to set the database owner to a valid login, then add the database diagram support objects. ------------------------------
The compatbility level of my database is already set to 2005 (90). So, changing it, will not help.
Answer:
What you have to know is, that when you restore a database the user running the restore command becomes the owner of the database. You must rechange the owner of the db.
