The User Or Group Name 'MYDOMAINmyuser' Is Not Recognized
Mar 25, 2008
I have a problem that many reports and folders were created with my administrative account. Due to some problems with AD my account was renamed MYDOMAINmyuser1. Everything has seemed to work fine for several months. Today I started getting an errors in the logs and subscriptions won't work.

I've deleted and recreated the subscriptions and I am still get these error messages. Any help resolving this is really appreciated.
Hi, I've been trying for the past week to get SQL 2005 Server up and running.The SQL is up and running however I am unable to get the Reporting service to start. The log file is below but the main line is:
ReportingServicesService!library!4!29/06/2006-14:33:45:: e ERROR: Throwing Microsoft.ReportingServices.Diagnostics.Utilities.UnknownUserNameException: The user or group name 'VIDICOMASPNET' is not recognized., ; Info: Microsoft.ReportingServices.Diagnostics.Utilities.UnknownUserNameException:The user or group name 'VIDICOMASPNET' is not recognized.
But the domain user ASPNET is present. Similar posts across the internet mention about the .NET Framework not be installed correctly. I have reinstalled it many times.
Any help is most appreciated.

I have a big problem with Reporting Services 2005 working on Windows 2003 Server. RS work as Network service, on subdomain reporting.mydomain with SSL wildcard certificate *.mydomain, Anonymous access: disabled and basic authentication: enabled ReportManager and reportServer has defualt virtual folders (/reporting, /reportserver)
My problem is: 1) I can't manage security roles and site settings with report maanger. when I try assign roles to new user or group I get followng error:
"The user or group name 'BUILTINAdministrators' is not recognized. (rsUnknownUserName) Get Online Help" when i try to execute reports in report manager, parameters controls are not displayed correctly (very simple text boxes) and I can see: The selected report is not ready for viewing. The report is still being rendered or a report snapshot is not available. (rsReportNotReady)
and I can't see my report in browser (IE 6.0) but only export to PDF, Excel...
other functionality are working fine i.e upload new files, creatign folders....
2) Also my reportserver virtual folder does not work correctly. When I navigate to mydomain/reportserver I can see content of this virtual folder, than when I navigate to ReportService.soap i can see normal ReportServer view
reporting.mydomain - /Reportserver/

Microsoft SQL Server Reporting Services Version 9.00.1399.00
I think it is security issue. What schould i do to solve this problems?
Hello!, I'm trying to connect from a local server to a remote server using the OPENROWSET function (SQL 2000).
I'm having problems with the authentication, if I put a "SQL" user, everything goes Ok, but if I change the SQL user for a windows NT user, I get the error "login failed for user 'xx'"
For example, this query works fine:
SELECT a.* FROM OPENROWSET('SQLOLEDB','myserver';'sqluser';'mypassword', 'SELECT * FROM myDataBase.dbo.myTable') AS a
But if I try WinNT login, it fails...
SELECT a.* FROM OPENROWSET('SQLOLEDB','myserver';'MyDomainMyWinNTUser';'ThePassword', 'SELECT * FROM myDataBase.dbo.myTable') AS a
Greetings,VWD EE and other Tools do not have problems working O.K. on my machine, when I am logged-on as restricted(limited) user, both environment and local web server are functioning, and it was MS effort to do it right.BUT the Problem is, when I try to connect to database->new DB connection(either through vwd or management studio etc). I get an Error - which should be written to event log (according to msg) but it isn't - that I can't connect. I am sure that it is because NO SQL SERVER2005EXPRESS instance is running, which I think is the only prerequisite to have it work (I do not need sqlbrowser service I am doint local development).SQL2005express service is configured on MANUAL start. I can start it as administrator through SQL config manager, but it is not convienient and what I want. I need to start it ONLY as a developer user, I do not want it to be running all-the-time for everyuser using computer. It was congigured as Network Service logon, I tried Local Service logon, and I even tried configuring it to logon as -my developer user- account, e.g. with limited user name and his password.In every case I can't start the service as member of users group and this developer. Then I added limited user to SQL2005EXPRESS group. Still NO help, won't start either.My question is, If I want to start developing ADO2.NET application and I need to have running SQL2005Express instance as a develper, how can I start it? I think I do not have some rights to masterDB or something. Do it allways need to be running when computer starts? Isn't there any other way, to start it JUST when I think I start developing?I know of user-mode of accessing SQL2005express DBs, but it also assumes that SQL2005Express service is already running, what I am trying to prevent. I do not want to have it running for everyone who uses computer, just for someone who neeeds it.Any help explaining me the right way HOW TO SETUP WORKING ENVIRONMENT when developing as limited user welcome, I read the the documentations and haven't found the answers.THANK YOU !
If I have an NT User created as a SQL login - and an NT Group as a SQL login, and then I revoke access to the Group - can the user still get in...? Should they be able to - since their specific user account is not locked, but the group is....?
I guess the real question is - when using NT Authentication, does security behave like NT - if you are denied one place - you are denied all places...?
I've got a SPROC that generates a recordset of user vote tallies (they're calculated in a separated SPROC). The user submissions are grouped by a GUID value so as to remain unique for a user's submission (each user can have multiple submissions.
The problem is that the recordset returned displays ALL the users, and I'd like to only select the highest score for each user. So, if I have 500 submissions from 3 users (User1 and User2 submit once each and User3 submits 497 times), the total recordset will have 3 rows - being the highest score per user, discounting the others.
Here's my base query:
SELECT a.UserID,a.Name AS [Name],SUM(b.TotalTally) AS [TotalPoints] FROM Users a INNER JOIN Ballots b ON a.UserID = b.UserID GROUP BY a.UserID, a.Name,b.SubmissionGUID ORDER BY [TotalPoints] DESC,[Name] ASC
...and I've been able to get the highest vote per user, discounting duplicate entries, by using this:
SELECT a.UserID,MAX(b.TotalTally) AS [TotalPoints] FROM Users a INNER JOIN Ballots b ON a.UserID = b.UserID GROUP BY a.UserID
How can I write combine the two in a nested subquery to display only the top score per user?
I am trying to create a TSQL statement or stored procedure that cantell me what users belong to what group and what groups have access towhat files. Can anyone help? Can I pull out a list of names fromActive Directory to use as my user list?
Our system administrator set up an NT server group in order to allowour users to login to our application via https to our sql server.The group appears as a User in SQL Server when you look at it inEnterprise Manager. That said, I can not see the users associatedwith the group from Enterprise Manager, but know they can login to thedatabase.The problem is this. When we login via the web we get access to thedatabase without problem, but when you look at the current_user whatyou see is the login Name the user entered and NOT the name of thegroup/User. That is to say, I can see a UserID which is not listed asa User in SQL Server and can't see the name of the group, which islisted as a user in SQL Server.I need to know who's logging in order to direct them to theappropriate web page via their role. Before the admin set up thegroup, I was using sp_helpuser to get the role, but then again I hadthe userID to do this.The question I have now, is there any way to see what thegroup/user is who logged in i.e. the goup listed as the User inEnterprise Manager? Otherwise I have to build a table of userIDs andtheir group/User name, which seems to defeat the purpose of having heserver authenticate users.Thanks,Tom
we  do get incidents saying user can't login even adding to the group.So is there any script to check which group the user xxxxx belongs to from SSMS?
Hi... I have a requirement where I need to pass the Users Windows userID and the AD group through which he is associated to the database so that I can get appropiate data.
Is there a way I can pass the Windows user ID and the AD group(through which he is authenticated in Reporting Serivces) through the Reporting Serivces as a parameter so that it can be used in the Reporting Query.
In our sql server we have around 40 windows group. Say a Windows user = "X" This X user does not have a direct windows login, he is present in one or more windows groups registered in the sql server.
I need to know throught which group he is logging in.
If I know this , this will help in my auditing process.
I am setting up security for access of database tables for members in a specific Windows User Group.I want to check in a SQL script if this Windows User group is added and if so, add database users and grant SELECT on specific tables.
I have tried this:
SELECT * FROM master.sys.syslogins WHERE name like '%FoeUsers' AND isntgroup = '1'
but that selects a SQL user or group and not a Windows Group.Is there a way to check if a Windows NT (active Directory) user group exists?
I've created an rdl report in reporting services 2005. Report is working fine. I've deployed this report on SQL Server 2005. The problem is this that to access the reports from client, I need to add client's login ID in Administrator user's group os server. If I dont add them in that group, it shows following error:
"The permissions granted to user 'loginname' are insufficient for performing this operation. (rsAccessDenied)".
This solution works fine in development but in actual environment, I can't add users in that group. Can anyone tell me how to view reports without adding user in administrator group. Its urgent.
I'd appreciate your thoughts on this. Not done too much DB admin. Usually I do development work and the admins to the admin.
The database is behind an API of stored procedures to manipulate the data, and views to select the data.
The database needs to be accessed remotely by multiple clients.
How best to keep the database secure?
Create a new user and login on the database which is made known to all client applications. Then grant execute permission on the stored procs and grant select on the views?
There is probably a better way than one login for all? Should I be looking at roles and groups etc? If so, how best to set that up?
Is it possible to check for Active Directory group.. ie see if the user running the Stored Proc, is in a specific Active Directory Group? Or if I set up Login's using Active Directory, can I get the Login that way... or will it give me the user's account?
I've just written a query that successfully brings back the data from one table based on the information from another. Basically we have been given a table of information and need to update certain fields in our user_group table with the new info.
Here is the SELECT statement SELECT user_group.id, user_group.name, user_group.description, Consultants.description AS Expr10, user_group.btype, user_group.rootmenu, user_group.intra_user, user_group.primary_g_id, user_group.fname, user_group.lname, user_group.ntlogon, user_group.lang_id, user_group.[external], user_group.title, user_group.work_tel, user_group.work_fax, user_group.work_ext, user_group.mobile, user_group.sex, user_group.add2, user_group.add3, user_group.town, user_group.county, user_group.pcode, user_group.private_flag,
[code]....
We want to update the 'description' on the user_group table with the 'description' from the 'consultants' table. To test this, we only want to write the UPDATE so that it changes the description where the name is 'Adam Froth. The UPDATE statement that we've written is
UPDATE user_group SET user_group.description = Consultants.description FROM user_group INNER JOIN Consultants ON user_group.description = consultants.description WHERE name like 'Adam Froth%'
but it keeps erroring and saying that it could 'Not be bound'.
I am getting some problem in using group in sql server login.
i have two NT groups in windows.i) developer and tester
I added a user Lalit in both gruop. I want to give db_owner permission on a particular database(Employee) to developer group and data_denyreader and deny_writer on same database(Employee) to tester group.
Now when i logging in to sql server using Lalit(windows authentication) iam not able to access the database(Employee).
Now my concern is that Lalit should have full access to the employee database when entered as developer user and limited access to employee database when entered as tester user.
If I have a domain user DOMAINuser1 who belongs to multiple window groups say DOMAINLookupConfigUsers and DOMAINAuditConfigUsers. In sqlserver, I would create two logins - DOMAINLookupConfigUsers and DOMAINAuditConfigUsers and matching users in the database. Then I grant LookupConfig role to the LookupConfigUsers user and AuditConfig role to the AuditConfigUsers user in the database. When DOMAINuser1 logs in, will it have both roles? I try to set this up but it does not seem to work. The domain user only picks up one of the role. Am I on the right track? If not, what is the proper way to grant multiple roles to a user when it belongs to multiple groups and each group has different privileges in the database.
The requirement is to customize database admin activities by creating new user group.
Need to create a group of user / dbauser1 which will have restriction in seeing the data but they should be able to alter database - add / remove the data file , increase or decrease the data file space when required.
This requirement came we wanted to create a new dba group they should not be able to any user data / any table but increase / decrease / add / modify space etc.
I'm trying to grant a user group select access to all the views in a database. I already made a query which creates a result set whit the SQL Syntax I (displayed below) need but it seems to be impossible to get this result set executed after creation.
use [AdventureWorksDW2008R2] SELECT 'GRANT SELECT ON [' + SCHEMA_NAME(Schema_id) + '].[' + name + '] TO [DOMAINGROUP]' FROM sys.views;
I have a user, who is trying log into the server, but everytime he gets this error saying something about the Group policy denies him access.
This user needs access and i'm trying to understand how to grant it to him.
I have been looking into how i can access the group policy editor, but the farthest i can get is the Local group policy editor. How do i make sure this specific user has access?
== I asked this question directly to Remus and wanted to share the response to all of those people using this forum == We recently moved our database server from SQL Server 2000 to SQL Server 2005. All applications on our intranet development server stay the same [VS.NET 2003], but recently resources in our Dev DB server ran out of space. While doing a thorough investigation, I noticed ERRORLOG file was occupying about 35 Gig of HDD space. I immediately checked SQL Server error log and noticed an entry which says €“ =========================================================================================== Date 7/7/2006 4:45:37 PM Log SQL Server (Current - 7/7/2006 4:45:00 PM)

Message The activated proc [dbo].[SqlQueryNotificationStoredProcedure-5eaf8465-d0cb-4be7-93b6-44bb979dd41c] running on queue BW_Content.dbo.SqlQueryNotificationService-5eaf8465-d0cb-4be7-93b6-44bb979dd41c output the following: 'Could not obtain information about Windows NT group/user 'BWCINCHoffK', error code 0x534.' ===========================================================================================
What is this SqlQueryNotificationService in my database? Is it a SQL Server 2005 thing? Why the same kind of stored procedure does not exist in other databases, but BW_Content? This error is getting repeated most probably every second and is filling up our server. I believe our corporate IT people removed our domain accounts from BWCINC domain to BWCORP domain and probably some application which is using BWCINCHoffK credential is getting errored out. I tried to locate this application and was not successful. Is there anyway that I can stop this ERRORLOG from growing? How can I delete these log entries so that I can make space on our Hard Drive? Is there an easy way in SQL Server 2005 to locate which application is creating this error? Response from Remus: The 'SqlQueryNotificationService-...' is the service created by SqlDependency when you call SqlDependency.Start (). The problem you describe appears because the 'dbo' user of the database is mapped to the login that originally created this database. The SqlDependency created queue has an EXECUTE AS OWNER clause, owner is 'dbo' and therefore this is equivalent to an EXECUTE AS USER = 'dbo'. The error you see is reported by the domain controller when asked to give information about the original account 'dbo' mapps to (that is, BWCINCHoffK'): Error code: (Win32) 0x534 (1332) - No mapping between account names and security IDs was done.
To solve the issue, change 'dbo' to match a correct login, using either sp_changedbowner or ALTER AUTHORIZATION ON DATABASE::[dbname] TO [somavalidlogin] To find the databases that have this problem, run this query:
select name, suser_sname(owner_sid) from sys.databases The databses that have the problem will show NULL on the second column. A similar problem is described here: http://forums.microsoft.com/MSDN/ShowPost.aspx?PostID=65711&SiteID=1
To remove the entries, use sp_cycle_errorlog to force a new errorlog file, then delete the huge log file. ---------------------------------------
I executed ALTER AUTHORIZATION ON DATABASE::[BW_Content] TO [sa];
I got this error in SQL Error Log once and the growth of ERRORLOG was stopped. =============================================================== Date 7/10/2006 1:16:55 PM Log SQL Server (Current - 7/10/2006 1:17:00 PM) Source spid20s

We are using Windows authenication within our system, and I was wondering how it would be possible to determine if the user conected to the SQL SERVER instance was a member of a particular active directory security group?
I have been struggling with this one for awhile now.I have a domain group which only must view the steps and history of all agent jobs.I have added the group to the sqlagentreadergroup.I have created a new role and denied this role,add job,update job,delete job etc execute permissions.But the user still can change ,delete or create a new job.
All the groups and users in th new role,does not have sysadmin rights.
we have sql 2012 enterprise version
What else can i try.I need this for audit purposes.
Setting up a test AlwaysOn Availability Group for one database.
However, whenever I restore the database to the replica server and join it, it ends up with my user account as the owner of the database.
Obviously I do not want a user account as the database owner, but since it is read-only I cannot modify it directly. If I were able to fail the AG over to the replica, I could change the owner then, but I cannot due to business requirements. this AG is to essentially serve as a replacement to log shipping.
I tried doing the backups and restores using EXECUTE AS login = 'sa', and yet it still shows up as my user account.
I've noticed at least five other posts on the web with this problem with no solutions given. Seems there are MANY people with this particular problem--hint:Microsoft Pay Attention. Help!
When installing SP2 for SQL Server 2005 I get this error message:
MSI (s) (E0!68) [09:02:25:673]: Product: Microsoft SQL Server 2005 (64-bit) -- Error 29512. SQL Server Setup was unable add user OUR-LAN-DOMAINOUR-SERVICE-ACCOUNT to local group OUR-LAN-DOMAINSQLServer2005SQLAgentUser$OUR-DATABASE-SERVER-NAME$MSSQLSERVER.
The error message seems to contradict itself: it says "local group" which seems to me to mean the group on the database server itself YET the group name is prefixed with our LAN domain name. So which one is it?
Also, I'm not sure if this message means there is a problem in Active Directory or in the security model of SQL Server itself. I don't think it means SQL Server itself because I don't think SQL Server has groups... it only has Roles, right?
We looked in Active Directory and the user above does indeed exist in the domain-level group mentioned.
