Error when trying to restore a database from a backup using RoundhousE

gistfile1.txt

Running RoundhousE v0.8.230.353 against (local) - IddealSuite.
Looking in C:\Dev\Iddeal\Database for scripts to run.

Restoring IddealSuite database on (local) server from path C:\Dev\Iddeal\Database\IddealSuite.bak.
RoundhousE encountered an error. You were running in a transaction though, so the database should be in the state it was in prior to this piece running. This does not include a drop/create or any creation of a database, as those items can not run in a transaction.

It's the transaction! In more recent versions there are two connections being set up, one admin on the master db and one normal on the regular db. It's trying to reuse a connection that is disposing...

Freaking retarded, but there is a bug in SQL Server where it tries to reuse connections and fails miserably due to the connections in the pool being deconstructed when it is trying to get them.

This is how you get around: http://msdn.microsoft.com/en-us/library/system.data.sqlclient.sqlconnection.clearpool.aspx

This should be fixed now for goodness sake... - chucknorris/roundhouse#26

running version 0.8.6 i still had some issues using the /withtransaction switch while trying to restore, don't know if this version should contain this fix?
