Dear Larry Dinsmore
Thank you so much for reading my blog SQLThoughts.
This message you got from restore job history may be due to
i) -there is no recent full backup of the database so that the log backups can be performed. Take a full backup of the database for which you configured the LOG Shipping.
ii) Check the privilages for the SQL Server Agent Service user for the folder configured for storing the .trn file ( transaction log backup file ) . This may be a network shared folder for the both cases in which SQL Server in a domain or SQL Server in a non-domain scenarios.
I think any one of the above may solve your problem. Please let me know the feed back!
With Regards

I really got a lot out of it, thanks. I have log shipping set up and am confused by this message in the restore job history “Skipped log backup file. Secondary DB:….” . Does that mean there was nothing to restore?
