Can't Set Up Start Up Service Account

Aug 25, 2000

Hi,

I am trying to set properties on a SQL Server7, but when I get to the tab for 'Startup Service account', it is greyed out. Also, the same for properties for SQL Server Agent.

Why can't I change it?

To schedule jobs, and have SQL mail, don't I need to set up a Startup Service Account?

Thanks for your help,
Judith

Whether To Use Local System Account Or Domain Account For Service Account

Jan 5, 2006

During install of SQL Server 2005, we can of course use a domain account or the built-in system account for running the services.  I lean toward domain for obvious reaons but would like to know a +/- to each option and why I'd choose one over the other and what consequences or limitations one may encounter if I choose one over the other.

What Permissions Are Required For SQL Server Service Account To Call Web Service Using CLR Integration?

May 18, 2007

Hello! I have the following problem. I developed CLR Stored Procedure "StartNotification" and deploy it on db. This sp calls external web service. Furthermore, this sp is called according with SQL Server Agent Job's schedule. On my PC SQL Server works under Local System account and this web service is called correctly (Executed as user: NT AUTHORITYSYSTEM). But on ther other server the following exception is raised during job running:
Date 17.04.2007 16:42:10
Log Job History (FailureNotificationJob)

Step ID 1
Server MSK-CDBPO-01
Job Name FailureNotificationJob
Step Name MainStep
Duration 00:00:00
Sql Severity 16
Sql Message ID 6522
Operator Emailed
Operator Net sent
Operator Paged
Retries Attempted 0

Message
Executed as user: CORPmssqlserver.
A .NET Framework error occurred during execution
of user defined routine or aggregate 'StartNotification':
System.Security.SecurityException: Request for the permission of type
'System.Net.WebPermission, System, Version=2.0.0.0, Culture=neutral,
PublicKeyToken=b77a5c561934e089' failed. System.Security.SecurityException:
at System.Security.CodeAccessSecurityEngine.Check(Object demand,
StackCrawlMark& stackMark, Boolean isPermSet)
at System.Security.CodeAccessPermission.Demand()
at System.Net. The step failed.

What is the reason of this behaviour? Unfortunately I do not have direct access to this server.
I have the following guesses:
1) CORPmssqlserver may have not enough permissions to call web service
2) Something wrong with SQL Server account's permissions
2) Something wrong with SQL Server Agent account's permissions
I will take the will for the deed. Thanks.

Jul 30, 2007

Hi all,
 I do understand that it is highly recomended to have aserprate user (perfered a domain user account) for each of the SQL Server service and SQL Agent service.

What is the diffrent between: 1- Local System account 2 -Network Service account
 
Thanks in advanced!

Running SQL Service Under Network Service Account

May 15, 2007

Microsoft recommends that you do not use the Network Service account to run the SQL Server service (see http://msdn2.microsoft.com/en-us/library/ms143504.aspx).



Can anyone tell me what the drawbacks are of doing this?

TFSREPORTS Service Account Does Not Have The Necessary User Right Log On As A Service.

Dec 12, 2007

Okay now this is weird, today the Reporting Services was not running and here are the entries in the event log:


Event Type: Error
Event Source: Service Control Manager
Event Category: None
Event ID: 7041
Date: 12/12/2007
Time: 9:47:22
User: N/A
Computer: TFS
Description:
The ReportServer service was unable to log on as DOMAINTFSREPORTS with the currently configured password due to the following error:
Logon failure: the user has not been granted the requested logon type at this computer.

Service: ReportServer
Domain and account: DOMAINTFSREPORTS

This service account does not have the necessary user right "Log on as a service."

User Action

Assign "Log on as a service" to the service account on this computer. You can use Local Security Settings (Secpol.msc) to do this. If this computer is a node in a cluster, check that this user right is assigned to the Cluster service account on all nodes in the cluster.

If you have already assigned this user right to the service account, and the user right appears to be removed, a Group Policy object associated with this node might be removing the right. Check with your domain administrator to find out if this is happening.
For more information, see Help and Support Center at http://go.microsoft.com/fwlink/events.asp

I am the administrator of the machines and I can assure you that no domain policy has changed for a couple of weeks. What should I look for?

An Error 1069 - )The Service Did Not Start Due To Logon Failure) Occurred While Performing This Service Operation ...

Oct 10, 2007

Hi All,

We seem to be being plagued by the error below by our SQL Server agent. This happens almost everytime we restart the server that has been running for a day or two.

Our SQL Server Agent uses a none expiring domain credential. I understand that this problem only happens when the profile being used by the SQL Servr Agent has changed (password change). What puzzles me is that the login is A ok and no changes has been made to it's password.

We always resolve this problem by changing the login used in the SQL Server Agent to local and after that, returning it back to it's original domain login. Unfortunately, we cant always do this everytime something goes wrong.

Can anyone please help us shed a light on this? We're using SQL2k with SP3a. Thanks!

Error:

An error 1069 - )The service did not start due to logon failure) occurred while performing this service operation on the SQLServerAgent service.

Cannot Get SQL Server Agent To Start Using New Account... Why?

Feb 28, 2007

Well, this is very confusing.

I have 2 servers that are members of the same AD Domain.

I need an account that can login to either one, but needs to be able to start a service, which my network admin says a local domain administrator cannot do.

So, I just decided to create an account with the same name, properties and password on both machines.

This I did. The account is a member of local Windows Administrator group on each server. Additionally, it is an SQL account on the SQL Server local instance, and a member of the SysAdmin group.

I can assign this account to SQL Server as the startup account (Log in with this account). That works fine.
However, when I assign this account to SQL Server, then SQL Server Agent quits running. So I try to assign this same account to this service and I get an error that the account 'Unknown' cannot login and needs to be a member of the SysAdmin group!??

This is a completely confusing error message since the account is a Windows Admin, SQL Server SysAdmin account and can start SQL Server fine without a hitch.

Anyone else having this very annoying problem ?!

Changing SQL Service Account

Mar 18, 2004

Has anyone ever converted from running SQL Server under the Local System account to running under a Domain User account?

I have often installed SQL using a Domain User account, but I am inheriting a couple of SQL Servers that were set up to run under Local System. I have never had to convert "on the fly" before.

If you have any input or insights, I would be grateful.

SQL Service Account Permissions

Oct 2, 2007

I just set up a SQL 2005 Server about a month ago that we will be moving all of our scattered DBs onto. I basically set it up with the default settings and didn't touch anything special, until I tried to install Microsoft System Center Essentials 2007 in our environment. I had problems getting it to use our SQL server, and a forum post told me to change all of the service accounts for SQL to use the LocalSystem login. So here are my service accounts:

SQL Server Integration Services
- NT AUTHORITYNetworkService
SQL Server FullText Search (MSSQLSERVER)
- LocalSystem
SQL Server (MSSQLSERVER)
- LocalSystem
SQL Server Analysis Services (MSSQLSERVER)
- LocalSystem
SQL Server Reporting Services (MSSQLSERVER)
- LocalSystem
SQL Server Browser
- LocalSystem
SQL Server Agent (MSSQLSERVER)
- LocalSystem

So Sandisk makes this software called CMC. It's for controlling their enterprise USB drives. And their software won't install. It errors out saying that it couldn't drop the database on our SQL server (but it doesn't exist). If I make an empty DB by the same name, it sees it, and then errors out anyway. I am using the SA login for testing (I was using a purposed SQL account before) so I don't think it's a rights issue. Sandisk says it should work, and they suggested I use SQL server express. But we run VMs, and running SQL server in another VM is going to use more of our memory pool. Plus we want centralized backups and all that.

Do my service account logins have anything to do with it? Can someone tell me what these should be set to by default so I can change them back?

Here's a trace I did when I tried to install the software:

-- network protocol: TCP/IP
set quoted_identifier on
set arithabort off
set numeric_roundabort off
set ansi_warnings on
set ansi_padding on
set ansi_nulls on
set concat_null_yields_null on
set cursor_close_on_commit off
set implicit_transactions off
set language us_english
set dateformat mdy
set datefirst 7
set transaction isolation level read committed

set implicit_transactions on
go
drop database [CruzerDb]
go
IF @@TRANCOUNT > 0 ROLLBACK TRAN
go

And here's more info if needed:

Product Version
- 9.00.3042.00
Edition
- Standard Edition
Server Collation
- SQL_Latin1_General_CP1_CI_AS
Is Clustered
- No
Is FullText Installed
- Yes
Is Integrated Security Only
- No
Is AWE Enabled
- No
# Processors (used by instance)

Service Account And CLR Security

Aug 6, 2007


By default does CLR code run under the SQL Service Server account or the SQL Agent Service Account? Does anybody have a link to BOL or MSDN???

My assumption is its under SQL Server Service Account.

I'm trying to satisfy the DBA's security concerns in regards to CLR Code. If the account it runs under (Agent or service) has zero privliges will a dba still be able to maintain the server? Wouldnt all their backups work under a privilaged account that isnt the SQL Server Service Account?


Double posted in security.

Service Account Password Change - Help!

Dec 3, 1999

Ugh! Someone changed the password of our SQL Server service account. It is called syssql, and it is used by the MSSQLServer and SQL Executive services to log in at startup. After the password was changed, we noticed that replication wasn’t running, and since I know that replication uses the Executive service, I restarted that service using the new password. That worked to get replication working again, and since the boxes were production machines I didn’t restart the MSSQLServer service with the new password yet. Now, our syssql account keeps on locking up every so often, and scheduled tasks that use xp_sendmail stopped working, and alerts stopped sending. Is this happening because of the MSSQLServer service still being logged in with the old password? I suspect that the SQL Mail logs in through the MSSQLServer service, which is still using the old password, and the login failures are causing the syssql account to lock. Any other ideas???

What Account Runs SQL Server Service?

Sep 18, 2001

We are debating whether to run the SQL Server service as Local System, a domain user without local admin rights, or a domain user with local admin rights. MSDN recommends local admin rights, but doesn't require them.
I would like to get some idea of how the real world handles this. If you run as a local admin, how do you handle the security implications? And if you run without local admin rights, what gotchas have you run into with extended stored procs, replication, etc?

Thanks,

Data Being Deleted By Service Account

Apr 28, 2014

I have an older instance of SQL Server (2000) used for an old installation of Great Plains. Over the years there have been several custom application built to interface various accounting related systems with the data on this server.

Recently there have been several instances where random transactions are being deleted. The folks in the accounting group setup Great Plains to track any deletes from the GL account and determine who did the deletes. They're telling me that the same account we use to launch SQL Server is the account deleting the data.

It's possible that someone knows the login creds for this account and is using it to do some task that's causing the problem, but that's a long shot in my opinion. I rather believe that one of these custom interface apps is causing the problem.

One of the custom interfaces includes several SQL jobs that run that do some truncating and bulk inserting. In each case these jobs are owned by the sa account. If one of these jobs deleted the data would it be reported as being deleted by sa or by the service account since that's the account that launches SQL Server Agent?

Changing The SQL Server Service Account

May 4, 2004

I have a SQL 2000 (SP3) running on a Windows NT 4.0 (SP6) box used in our test environment. The SQL Server was configured to run under the local system account before I got here. In an effort to standardize things, I tried changing the SQL Service account to run under a designated domain user account purpose built for the job. We use this particular account for all of our new-build servers (which are W2K). This domain account is configured to be a "Power User" on the NT 4.0 Server in question.

Soon after changing things over to run under the new account, all the developers complained that they could no longer connect to the server. I could through QA and EM, but none of the developers could.

The developers are using WebLogic and JDBC drivers for the most part. I wasn't aware that the SQL Server service account affected client connectivity. Was I wrong or is there something else at work here?

Thanks,

SQL Server Service Account Questions

I have recently installed 2005 Standard and 2005 Reporting Services (on a separate server), today we built a service account for the SQL services in Active Directory. I planned to use SQL Configuration tools to change the account but it fails with the message:

'No mapping between account names and security IDs was done'

I ended up going through and following the manual steps outlined in KB article 283811 - http://support.microsoft.com/default.aspx?scid=kb;en-us;Q283811

But I am baffled and concerned as to why it failed.

Any advice?

Changing The Password For SQL Service Account

Apr 16, 2008

We are running SQL Server 2000 on two servers and when they were built, the same domain account was used for all installations, and the MSSQLSERVER and SQLServerAgent services run logged in as that same account. That account is also the dbo of all the SQL databases. We now need to change the password and possibly disable that domain account.

What do we need to do to make sure the SQL Servers and databases continue to run without problems after making the password change and/or disabling the account?

I appreciate any advice!
