Hello Stephen, do what Dominic said. If you need to drop your database, recreate it by executing the demo script up to (including) the INIT CONFIG. After that restore your backup and restart the database as already advised.

SAPDB 7.4 restore from backup DBMCLI - create_demo_db.cmd example Sorry, while reading your mail the second time I read, that you dropped your db and then started the backup. But you need an existing db to restore into it. Do not drop the db, only reinitalize it with util_execute INIT CONFIG!
