The account i setup to access the db in Sql 2005 Proper on the Production serve is Represented by the name in the above example as “aspuser�. I created this user in security, logins. And
I gave permissions to this on the Db level “create procedure
delete, select, update insert.�
I get a error when i run the page in the browser that
says “login failed for aspuser.�
I know virtual directory is configured properly. I can run aspx page in the directory with out a db connection, without and error.
Hi, I want to use a domain user account not belonging to local admin or domain admin groups in SQL 2000/2005 Enterprise edition. This is what I've done so far.. On the machine that is the Domain Controller: - installed SQL 2005 as a domain admin
- created a domain user account using Active Directory Users and Computers. This user is only
"Member of" domain users; not any Administrators group.
- added this user to SQL Server Management Studio->Logins and in Server Roles assigned
sysadmin role. Question 1: Do I need to give any additional permissions to this user to work with SQL? Question 2: How can I test this user for basic SQL operations like database creation? Can I use Osql? Question 3: Can I use this user account to login to my domain controller using remote desktop? I tried adding this user to remote users, but in vain.
Who needs to invoke the jobs in SQL05? Manually executing the job import_myteam as a user with dbo privileges fails. So, which user account should be assigned to successfully run scheduled jobs (ie, dbo)?
The package file for the job in question is located in the server€™s C:Documents and SettingsuserxyzMy DocumentsVisual Studio 2005ProjectsIntegration Services Project3Integration Services Project3MyTeam (1).dtsx, but this still fails when the user userxyz is logged on and is executing the job directly from the server console.
Step1 of the package executes as userxyz Step 2 fails and runs as cpmc-casql02
The user account userxyz has administrator rights to the server as well as being a sysadmin of the SQL2005 database (named cpcasql02).
The account cpmc-casql02 is a €œpublic€? user of the database and is a member of the administrator group on the server itself.
This same scenario carries for tasks as simple as truncating a table and importing the contents of another table in the same database.
All of these jobs exhibit the same behavior whether run directly from the server console on remotely from a workstation connected to the SQL2005 database.
Attempting to get a really simple job working, we also created a very simple SSIS package which does a select from a database table and writes the output to a text file. When running the same package from the user€™s workstation within Visual Studio, the package executes successfully. Once copied to the server, and run from within SQLServer as MyJunePackage however, the execution fails in the same manner as described above. The first step executes successfully as the logged-in user and the second fails executed under the account cpmc-casql02.
So, again we have the same behavior of sequential steps being run as different users with unsatisfactory results. Please advise as to how to set up these jobs to run correctly and consistently.
I've recently installed SQL-Server 2005 on our production server (win server r2, .net framework 2.0, 3.0 etc ..). In order to improve the security mechanism I'm allowing only windows authentication (not mixed mode).
If each site and the sql-process is given a specific user account, could it have some bad performance issues ? Security-wise, which is better ?
Few things to point out: 1. The SQL process was assigned with a local user account (i.e : [machine name]SqlServerUser) and not using NT AUTHORITYNETWORK_SERVICE. 2. Every ASP.Net site on the server assigned with a local account (i.e : [machine name]SomeSiteUser) through the IIS's Directory Security tab and not using IUSR_[machine name]. 3. Each "Site User" has the appropriate database authorization in sql. Any given help will be appreciated, thanks.
I receive an error message in event log when i try to connect to the Database Server using ODBC on a client machine. The database server is running on Windows 2003 Server Standard Edition and the client machine is Windows XP Professional. Following is the error message from the event log:
2147467259 - [Microsoft][ODBC SQL Server Driver][SQL Server]Login failed for user 'sa' because the account is currently locked out. The system administrator can unlock it.
What causes the error to occur and how to resolve it?Appreciate for your assistence.
I have a SQL Server 2005 Express edition instance set up on one server, and IIS on another server.
The SQL Server process account is a domain user account, which I have added to the local groups that SQL Server created during installation (I originally used a local user account instead of domain account; however, the problem occurs with both).
SQL Server runs fine, and if I set my IIS application pool identity to a domain admin, my web app can access the database and retrieve the data necessary.
However, I have a domain user account that I want to use to run the app pool and retrieve the data. The domain user account is added to the IIS_WPG group on the web server. On the database server, I have created a login for the account, as well as added it to the db_datareader role of the database that is used for the site.
However, the user is not able to connect to the SQL Server. I get the "Login failed for user <user account>" error in ASP.NET. I also tried connecting with SQL Server Management Studio, and I get the same error. I checked and the user has connect permission to the database server.
With admin accounts, there are no problems logging in, etc.
Any pointers are appreciated,
Thanks,
SA.
Edit: I was able to find out that the State is 11 for the error. According to http://blogs.msdn.com/sql_protocols/archive/2006/02/21/536201.aspx, this indicates "Valid login but server access failure." I am not sure how to resolve this.
If you were to do a fresh install it would set permissions on the disk so everything just works.
Now when changing the service account (e.g. to a domain user) use the configuration manager, does it do the same magic (possibly sans if the database data/log files are on another disk)? Or do you need to trawl through the dozens of folders and assign rights manually?
In SQL/2000 EM I can go to a user Database, expand the Users, double click a user and click Permissions to see everything a user has permisson to in the database. How can I get the same information in Management Studio in SQL/2005? Is there an overview of this process in BOL 2005?
Using Management Studio how do you script only user and object permissions? I don't want to script the corresponding "Create" statements for each object, only their permissions.
I am attempting to use Visual Web Developer Express with a connection to a SQL Express db from a non-admin account on my XP Pro SP2 machine.
I can do everything in the app under an admin login, but can't seem to configure the db to allow the non-admin account access to the db. I've tried tweaking WMI, using Network Service, Local Service, and Local System with NT AUTHORITY, individual logins, and group permissions, but I'm stuck.
I'm developing a client-server application using Visual Basic and SQL Server 6.5 for 700 users. The application currently requires users to login to the database using their network account (via trusted connections). Each of the users takes up a maximum of 6 connections. Unfortunately, other considerations will force us to discard use of trusted connections. So it only leaves us either to create 700 user accounts on SQL Server separately from their network logins or to create one SQL Server account and everybody uses that same account to login to the database. For political reasons, the customer would prefer not to ask their support group to maintain 700 user accounts on SQL Server if it can be avoided.
My question: is there any technical limitation or other negative consequence of having 700 users login to the same account to SQL Server if SQL Server can handle that many connections (it would be 6*700 = 4200 connections) simultaneously? Are we supposed to do things like this? It seems that we don’t have better choice than this.

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.
Please forgive my ignorance, I am by no means a SQL Expert, but have encountered a strange issue.
I have 6 SQL Servers, Primarily SQL 2005 (one older SQL 2000) all loaded on Windows Server 2003 SP1.
We use the servers for a proprietary database that we created which is the backend to a software package we sell.
The issue I have is: We have added a Security account to the servers, and in one case we have granted rights for this account to the TempDB system database. However, whenever we restart this server SQL drops this user account, thus severing connectivity for the app that is relying on that account.
I have set the account as DB-Owner etc, but nothing sems to keep it on re-start.
I would like to write code to delete and add a SQL Login to every User database on my development server. Whenever I restore databases to dev using production backups the SQl Server logins are invalid and I need to delete them from the user database and add them again.
I've already hard-coded a sql server job with n steps... a step for each user database to drop and add this sql user to each database. This isn't optimal since I have to add or delete a step everytime a user database is added or deleted.
Does anyone know how to write a loop or cursor that does this dynamically? I am doing something syntactically wrong related to the GO statement.
declare @db varchar(100)
declare @message varchar(3000)
DECLARE user_cursor CURSOR FOR
SELECT top 1 name
FROM master.sys.databases
where name not in
('master','tempdb','model','msdb')
OPEN user_cursor
FETCH NEXT FROM user_cursor INTO @db
WHILE @@FETCH_STATUS = 0
BEGIN
SELECT @message = 'use '+@db + '
GO'
+'DROP USER [SQLLogin.DataEntry]
CREATE USER [SQLLogin.DataEntry] FOR LOGIN [SQLLogin.DataEntry]
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:

Hi, I keep getting a connection failed error message... CANNOT the DATABASE " " requested by the Login. The Login failed for User 'NT Authority/ Network Service' error and I figure I should create an account for the site to access the Database with but I do not know how to create an account in SQL server using the Management studio?? Anyone willing to give me the exact information I need to do this so I do not do something else and ruin things please??? I am not much of an SQL DBA. thanks in Advance.
Im having trouble getting xp_cmdshell to work after we changed the service account for our sql server. It was working perfectly before - so i know that execute permissions have been granted, and that we have a credential set up properly.
I have read that I need to ensure the service account has permissions to 'act as opertaing system' and 'replace a process level token'. I have granted these rights in the local security policy as well.
However, I still get :
A call to 'CreateProcessAsUser' failed with error code: '1314'.
Do I need to restart the service? Or the whole server? Or have I missed something else?
Hey guys. I'll have an active/active cluster and seperate accounts for SQL Services and Cluster service. The question is what rights should the cluster account have in SQL if I've removed the 'builtin admins' from SQL? Thank you
I am having a problem restricting write access to tables in my database.In my database I have a table called, for the sake of argument, 'TableX'.In my SQL Server Logins, I have set up a login for 'Domain Users' using NTauthentication, and a login called 'FullTableX', using SQL Serverauthentication.I have added two users to my database relating to the above logins.I have added a role to my database called 'ReadTableX' with 'Domain Users'as a member of this role. 'ReadTableX' has SELECT permission only on arestricted set of tables.The only other role that 'Domain Users' is a member of is 'public', and'public' has no permissions on any of my tables.The user 'FullTableX' is a member of 'public', 'db_datareader' and'db_datawriter'With the above settings, I would expect user 'FullTableX' to have fullaccess (Select, Insert, Update and Delete) on all my database tables (so farso good), but any user connecting to the database with NT authentication(via ODBC System DSN) should only have read access to the limited set oftables. However, what is happening is that NT authenticated users also havefull access to all of the tables.What am I missing here??
I noticed that when installing on a Windows XP machine, the installation results in a SQLServer instance which is configured with Built-in account = Network Service. However, with the same command line used on Windows 2000 machines, the configuration winds up being Built-in account = Local System. My understanding is that the default configuration is supposed to be Local System.
What can I do to ensure that the instance configuration is always Local System during the silent installation? This is required otherwise, under the Network Service configuration, it creates a messy situation to attach DBs.
I am trying to connect to a sql server from my asp.net application via windows authentication using the Network Service account. When I try to create a login for the ComputerNameNetwork Service account I get the following error.
I know I haven't mistyped it because I clicked the check names button and it showed as a valid id.
So what gives?

If we were to assign permissions to a backup agent such as Backup Exec to backup the databases on the SQL server, what role would give the least amount but sufficient permissions to perform the backup? I know domain admin would make the agent a local admin and therefore allow it to back up the database but is there a role available to allow backup only?
Please note that I'm referring to a domain account used by Backup Exec to directly backup the databases rather than sql server agent.
We are trying to configure registry settings to allow sql server service to run on a service account in SQL Server 2005. The registry has changed quite a bit from SQL 2000, and we are missing a setting in the software keys that causes sql server service not to start. If we apply permissions to all of HKEY_LOCAL_MACHINE/SOFTWARE, then the service starts, however company security policies do not allow this. Are there any specific keys we should look at, other than the obvious Microsoft/Microsoft SQL Server and Microsoft/MSSQL keys, in which we have already granted permissions to the service account?
Is there anyway to find the permissions assigned to user. What level of access the user has in each db and the tables & is he able to see jobs. Each object and permissions
I was wondering if there was any way to set the service account on sql server 2005 express to Local System via command prompt.
To giva some background to this issue, I am installing 2005 express via command prompt, however, the default service account is network I believe. However, when running this, I keep getting an "error 3415" whenever I try to attach a database, which states that the files are "read only", which they are not. However, when setting the service account to local or set the security mode to windows authenticaiton, I can attach just fine.
The parameters I use to install are pretty standard:
So I was wondering if there was some way to set the service account to local system to local using some command prompt parameter. OR if there was another way around the error 3415 that will enable me to attach a database, that I do not know about that I can use, preferrably via command prompt, but anything will be fine at this point.
I am having trouble installing sql express from a command line on an XP o/s other than English, I know French and German have the problem I suspect this is caused by setting the sql account to ="NT AUTHORITYSYSTEM" my guess is that this is a localized string.
I get the following error
SQL Server Setup could not validate the service accounts. Either the service accounts have not been provided for all of the services being installed, or the specified username or password is incorrect. For each service, specify a valid username, password, and domain, or specify a built-in system account.
we are using windows authentication. Is there a faster way to set permissions for each database than to go through each table and set them? Currently, to set the permissions from SQL Server Enterprise Manager, I click on Security > logins > select the properties for the IUSR account > Database Access > then check off each database that we allow access to. Next I go through each tables properties and set the permissions. Is there an easier, faster way to do this?
I have created a database now I am setting login details for that user. I am using slq server authentication and entering a password of recommended length.
I enter my details in my webconfig file and I get -couldnot connect to database specified in connection string for sql data provider.
when I check the login properties the password has changed it appears to be the password for NT Authoritysystem, ie same length, what it is Idont know.
