I recently made a copy of it and took it into the datacenter and loaded onto one of my servers. The VM runs fine but now i am trying to copy a database from my local VM to the one in the datanceter but i am getting an error message saying that i cant copy the database because the source and destination are the same database. I am connecting to them both using different IP addresses which i thought would have been enough but its not playing nice. Anyone else come across anything like this?
