That error message is telling you that the database file is missing. It also tells you what to do about it.

“Please either recover the database file from a backup, or remove the log files if your intention is to mount a newly-created empty database.”

Restore everything that you deleted. If you still can’t get the database to mount, and you’re concerned about data loss, you should open a Microsoft support case and let them guide you through a database recovery.

I restored Log files but still the error is same. Log file path is:
F:exchangeDBPrimaryLogsMailbox Database 0322309082

DB path is:
F:exchangeDBPrimaryMailbox Database 0322309082

In DB location edb files and another folder was there named ‘catalogdata44ij…..’. I deleted that folder as well along with edb file.

“and deleted all contents from default DB location from window explorer”

You’ve deleted all the log files for the database? That will certainly cause the database to fail to mount. You should restore those files if you want to be able to mount the database.

Then I dismounted default DB and deleted all contents from default DB location from window explorer. Now when I am trying to remount default db is shows me below error: Please Help

That isn’t a blocking error, it’s just a warning. If you don’t plan to deploy any Exchange 2007 servers in your org you can ignore it and proceed with the Exchange 2013 deployment.

I have the found the problem in Exchange Server 2013 installation.

Error Message:

Setup will prepare the organization for Exchange Server 2013 by using ‘Setup /PrepareAD’. No Exchange 2007 server roles have been detected in this topology. After this operation, you will not be able to install any Exchange 2007 servers. for more information, visit: http//technet.microsoft.com/library(EXCHG.150)/ms.exch.setupreadiness.NoE12ServerWarning.aspx

So please help me to solve this problem.

Best regards,

That won’t work. You can’t just join an Exchange server to a new AD, even if the AD is the same name. You should do a restore/recovery of your original AD instead.
