Good afternoon,

After backup of sql in sql manager and reset on the final server I get this message:
Please create a master key in the database or open the master key in the session before performing this operation.

The user table has an encrypted password ... I don't know why it doesn't work.

Thanks.

It looks like you also need to move your encryption key from the old database to a new one.
