We subscribe to Windows Azure for our Database. Currently, I copied the DB of our Production instance into our Development instance and it was successfully done. All tables, including data are completely copied. Right now I am trying to run delete statement to remove unnecessary data but I was not able to proceed and this is the error message I am getting in SQL Server Management Studio.
“Failed to update database because the database is read-only. Please contact your Azure service owner. There may be billing related issues with your Azure account.”
I asked my team mate to understand where could I find the Database Logs but they told me that we don’t have access on database application folder.
Can someone advise how should I proceed?
By the way, we have 5 DBs in 1 server and I was able to made modification (run update/delete statement) to those 4 DBs except this one. Same user and permission.
Most likely your database has reached its max size.
You can use the
Alter Databasesyntax to bump up the max size.Before doing so make sure you know how that will affect your billing.
