BACKUP LOG cannot be performed because there is no current database backup

I tried to restore a database but this message showed. How do I restore this database?

Restore of database 'farhangi_db' failed.

Solution 1:

Originally, I created a database and then restored the backup file to my new empty database:

Right click on Databases > Restore Database > General : Device: [the path of back up file] → OK

This was wrong. I shouldn't have first created the database.

Now, instead, I do this:

Right click on Databases > Restore Database > General : Device: [the path of back up file] → OK

Solution 2:

Another cause of this issue is when the Take tail-log backup before restore "Options" setting is enabled.

On the "Options" tab, Disable/uncheck Take tail-log backup before restore before restoring to a database that doesn't yet exist.
