Attachment failed when attaching mdf and ldf files to email (MSSQL 2017)

278 Views Asked by At

I need to attach my database mdf and ldf files to an email. In MSSQL, I went to properties--->files and found the path, pulled up the files and tried to attach them. However, the files don't upload and I get a message saying "attachment failed." I looked up the issue and found that it may be due to permission not being granted, so I changed my permissions and am still having the issue. Are there other reasons that mdf and ldf files may not successfully attach to an email?
The progress bar does not go up, so I know the files are not being uploaded at all. After about 10 seconds, the error message appears.
