Cannot Generate SSPI Context
Feb 6, 2007
Win Server 2003
SQL Server 2000 SP4
SharePoint Server
Win Server 2000 (Domain Controller / Active Drectory)
Clients: Win XP / Access XP
I have two clients that can access the SQL Server and one that can not. All clients can access SharePoint (SLQ Server Back end) and directories controlled by AD.
The one that cannot access the SQL Server errors: "Cannot Generate SSPI Context". I have verified:
1) date and time
2) occurances of Security.DLL (win/system32; program file/common files/AOL...; Service Pack Files/i386 (x2))
3) Not using cached credentials
we recently moved our network and did not change any settings on any of the computers. I read KB811889; those suggestions did not resolve the issue.
Please assist me in touble shooting this connection problem. Also, how does changing the SQL Server Port on the server affect SharePoints connection to its database?

I was trying out the Building an End-to-End Application (VB.Net) exercises on Web Matrix Guided Tour and encountered the mentioned errors. Please help. Thanks.
The code is as follows :
<%@ Page Language="VB" Debug="true"%>
<%@ import Namespace="System.Data" %>
<%@ import Namespace="System.Data.SqlClient" %>
<script runat="server">
Sub Page_Load(Sender As Object, E As EventArgs)
Welcome.Text = "Hello, " + User.Identity.Name
If Not Page.IsPostBack Then
' Databind the master grid on the first request only
' (viewstate will restore these values on subsequent postbacks).
MasterGrid.SelectedIndex = 0
BindMasterGrid()
BindDetailGrid()
End If
End Sub
Sub MasterGrid_Select(Sender As Object, E As EventArgs)
BindDetailGrid()
End Sub
Sub MasterGrid_Page(Sender As Object, E As DataGridPageChangedEventArgs)
If MasterGrid.SelectedIndex <> -1 Then
' unset the selection, details view
MasterGrid.SelectedIndex = -1
BindDetailGrid()
End If
MasterGrid.CurrentPageIndex = e.NewPageIndex
BindMasterGrid()
End Sub
Sub BindMasterGrid()
' TODO: Update the ConnectionString and CommandText values for your application
Dim ConnectionString As String = "server='WRPBI'; user id='sa'; password='sa';database=MatrixOrders;Integrated Security=SSPI"
Dim CommandText As String = "select OrderID, OrderDate, CustomerName from Orders"
Dim myConnection As New SqlConnection(ConnectionString)
Dim myCommand As New SqlDataAdapter(CommandText, myConnection)
Dim ds As New DataSet()
myCommand.Fill(ds)
MasterGrid.DataSource = ds
MasterGrid.DataBind()
End Sub
Sub BindDetailGrid()
' get the filter value from the master Grid's DataKeys collection
If MasterGrid.SelectedIndex <> -1 Then

Dim filterValue As String = CStr(MasterGrid.DataKeys(MasterGrid.SelectedIndex)).Replace("'", "''")
Dim CommandText As String = "select OrderDetailID, ProductName, Quantity, UnitPrice from OrderDetails where OrderID = '" & filterValue & "'"
Dim myConnection As New SqlConnection(ConnectionString)
Dim myCommand As New SqlCommand(CommandText, myConnection)
myConnection.Open()
DetailsGrid.DataSource = myCommand.ExecuteReader(CommandBehavior.CloseConnection)
End If
DetailsGrid.DataBind()
End Sub
</script>

All of a sudden I cannot connect to sql server from Visual Studio. Nor I can't conenct to Sql server through IIS and it gives me the same error saying "Login failed: Cannot Generate SSPI Context". Lots of my development projects got stuck because of the SSPI Issue. I know there was a network upgrade from Windows NT (users) to Active directory. I can only access the sql server from the host machine.if someone can guide or give me a quick run down on things to look for that would be wonderful.

I have a SQL Server 2000 in a specific W2K server, that belongs to a domain that is administered by a W2003 server.
There is a client that has a new computer with WXP in the same domain. It used to have an old machine with W2K pro. and with the same user it worked OK.
When accesing SQL from the client with an Office2003 application via ODBC with windows authentication, after several minutes working OK, suddenly it gets this message:
Conection error. SQL state: S1000
Cannot generate SSPI context.
In the client I have executed cliconfg.exe and created a piped name protocol, but still it won't work.

Howdy,
Firstly, I have read through so much information on this, that my eyes are starting to bleed and I am right at the end of my rope with it all..
This issue has only started showing since I re-installed my dev box, so my server has not changed at all..
Server is 2003 with SQL 2005.
Dev box is
Vista (Ultimate)
Visual Studio Pro 2005..
A quick but painful solution is for me to log out of my box and then back in, but this is unworkable at times... about the only difference I can think of this install from the last is that now I have also installed SQLExpress on the dev box. I have gone into services and made sure that the service does not start auto. I have connection to the server and am running as administrator on both until such time as I can sort this out, but the error still occurs.
Authentication for the dbase is both windows and credential.
Can someone please give me a stratight out solution for this.
Cheers

I'm signing into a sqlexpress 2005 local server using windows integration and it fails with a "Cannot generate SSPI context". After 2 years of working with this, it just started to happen after I installed a new piece of software to test. My colleague thinks it hosed our domain names. I've read all the articles and most of them have to do with a non-local server. I also read that this is caused with TCP/IP so I disabled it for sqlexpress and tried again. Then I get "An error has occurred while establishing a connection to the server. When connecting to the sql server 2005, this failure may be caused by the fact that under the default settings sql server does not allow remote connections." I know I have remote enabled so that isn't true. If it uses VIA, "Login failed for user '(null)'. Not a trusted sql connection" or something like that. Anyway, I think something is hosed in my domain and my colleague fixed it by downloading some xp tool that he can't remember where it came from. Any chance anyone else knows about this tool?

Hi,
I have a MSSQL database running in a Microsoft cluster. I was working on troubleshooting for another SAP problem when they suggested I change the setting using hte SQL Server Client Network Utility to 'named pipes' from 'tcp/ip'. Every since, despite changing it back I'm unable to start the database in the cluster.
I'm kind of a newbie at this so I'd really appreciate any help in getting this database up and running.
Here is the error message from the event log:
sqsrvres] checkODBCConnectError: sqlstate = HY000; native error = 0; message = [Microsoft][ODBC SQL Server Driver]Cannot generate SSPI context

I regularly (every month or so) get the error "The target principle name is incorrect. Cannot generate SSPI context" when trying to remotely connect to my SQL 2012 instance. The SQL service is running using a managed service account. I understand this error can occur when the service account cannot authenticate with AD properly. Looking at the properties of the managed service account, the password for the account was automatically changed this morning - just when the error started.

Hi,
I have gone through so many kb articles to understanding the problem, but no luck as yet.
Here is the situation:
I have two dev servers : Server A and Server B. Both are set up in an identical fashion. Windows 2003 sp2, Sql Server 2005 sp1 Developer Edition, both are on the same domain, Both have all the three protocols enabled: Shared Memory, Tcpip, and Named Pipes in that order. I can ping both servers, and telnet using the default port. Both have only default instances. Both use the same domain user account for sql service. Both have the error in the log saying that spn could not be registered so authentication may fall back to NTLM.
Here is the issue: When I try to register Server A specifying tcp-ip connection, I am successful and I can see that the authentication is NTLM - is as expected. since the spn registration did not happen and since the sqlservice account is not a domain admin, the authentication used NTLM over tcp-ip. However, I try to register Server B specifying tcpip, I get a cannot generate sspi context error. Why did the authentication not fall back to NTLM as in Server A? From what I read in the KB articles, I asked our network admin to check up the spn, but he assures me that spn were never manually registered.
Can somebody throw more light on this issue?
Thanks

Hi,
I am using .net 2 to connect to sql server 2005 - All works fine. When I move the sql server machine date forward (to test the application) the above message is returned.
Any ideas as to why this message is generated when I move the clock forward will be gratefully received.

Hi-I have a program that I am developing on a laptop, then deploying it on a server.I have the prgram running passing a username and PW in the connection object, but like the idea of using windows authentication MUCH better.I just joined the domain, so I am domain/me for example.If I log into the server, and look at securities, logins and added domain/me to the logins.I then try and set up a sql connection via both visual studio, and sql server magt studio, and get the dreaded "Cannot generate SSPI context" error. Anyone else have this problem? SHOULD V.S. be using domain/me to connect? TIA dan

We are looking at developing an SQL Server 2005 Database and I would like to use Windows Authentication rather than SQL Server Authentication to connect our client app.
In our development environment, we have two Servers, one being used as a file server and the other as an SQL Server. We have now set up a domain using the file server as the domain controller. (We had previously been set up to use a workgroup).
I have set up an active directory group called SqlDevelopers and added an active directory user called Jonathan to it.
On the SQL Sever, in management studio, I have set up a new server login which uses windows authentication called DomainSqlDevelopers. I used the GUI to verify I could see the domain and the group.
The default database is set to a test database on the server. A user in the test database is mapped to the DomainSqlDevelopers and given the Roles dbo, db_datareader, db_datawriter.
To test the log in, on the server, I logged out as administrator and in as Jonathan. I could successfully access the server through management studio using windows authentication.
However, if I log in as Jonathan on my client PC and try to access the SQL Server using management studio and windows authentication, I have problems.
The first time I try I will get a timeout error. If I try again will get either:
Login failed for user ''. The user is not associated with a trusted SQL Server connection
Or
Cannot generate SSPI context
I can€™t determine any pattern to which of the above errors I get.
However, if I log in as administrator on my client PC, I can connect to the server using management studio and windows authentication.
Sounds like Active Directory/Domain or other Network issue (Not really my area). I would be grateful for any help.
Thanks,
Jon

Hello together,
since over a week I've been looking to
find out the reason for two error messages I get from our users and
servers, unfortunately without success up to now.
I really hope you can help me.
We are using Win 2k servers with active directory and SQL Server 2000,
clients are all Win XP with SP2. Versions of access are 2002 &
2003. The errors are userspecific and occur in both versions. The
SQL-Servers are accessed with an adp-file in 2002-format.
We have one usergroup which is member of specially many groups. This
affects the size of their windows access token which becomes constantly
larger. In order to enable those users to still access their mailboxes
on our Exchange servers, the DWORD entry "MaxTokenSize" with the
decimal value "65535" was made to the newly created key "Parameters" of
their registry branch
"HKLMSYSTEMCurrentControlSetControlLsaKerberos ".
Since then those users can not access any of our SQL Servers using the
windows authentification. One of them gets the error
"[DBNETLIB][ConnectionRead(recv().] General network error. Check your
network documentation.", the others the error "Check connection:
Failed: Cannot generate SSPI context".
In case of resetting the registry entries (by deleting them), the one
user receives the same error message as the rest while it doesn't make
any difference to those (but at least they can't connect to their
mailboxes).
After having researched the web, I realised in one of the SQL-Servers
logfiles the entry "Invalid buffer received from client.." which lead
me to start to believe it could have to do something with the kerberos
encryption in the first place. Therefore I asked if changes to the
tokensize had been made. I applied the change with "EXEC sp_configure
'network packet size', 65535 RECONFIGURE" on our testsystem and "EXEC
sp_configure" confirms that the value is run.
Consequence: The entry in the SQL Server log doesn't appear any longer, but the users still receive their error messages.
Do you have any hints?
Your comments will be highly appreciated!
Regards,
caracol

Please advise: I have created a simple ASPX page to test if I can connect to MSDE on a Server 2003 system. The connection string that works ok is:
server=WS1;database=northwind;integrated security=false;user id=sa;password=xxx;
but the string that does not work is:
server=WS1;database=northwind;integrated security=SSPI;
which is the string I would like to use for normal web access. This string works fine on my development system (where I use XP Pro and IIS 5.1)
In IIS6 on the "production server" the directory security on the virtual dir is set to allow anonymous access, using user IUSR_WS1 (where WS1 is the name of the system) and to integrated security.
Please help! Thank you

I keep getting these alerts but the client's IP listed in the message doesn't seem to be having a problem. I'm not sure if it is retrying and succeeds the second or third try. I commonly get 2 of these messages each time it happens. I thought is may be when the user connects to the server in Management Studio but when I got the message today the user wasn't trying to connect to this server. The server the use was connected to in SSMS is linked to this server but if the link was causing the error it looks like it would return the IP of the server instead of the users IP. The link is done using a SQL login account. Anyway, this is not a big problem since know body except me even knows it is happening but I'd like to figure it out.
SQL Server Alert System: 'Fatal Error in Current Process' occurred on
DESCRIPTION: SSPI handshake failed with error code 0x8009030c while establishing a connection with integrated security; the connection has been closed.

At our site, we page DBAs whenever an alert with a severity of 20 or greater is raised. This never was an issue until SQL Server 2005. Now every SSPI error is paged since it is a severity 20. I don't believe the errors are severe enough to qualify an assignment of 20. Anybody else have any thoughts on this?
Thanks.

I am using windows impersonation in a CLR that is retrieving folder structure. In order to use impersonation I need to pass the windows credential to the SQL server so I am trying to use "integrated security=SSPI" and I also tried "integrated security=true" as well with the same result...I get the error: Login failed for user ''. The user is not associated with a trusted SQL Server connection.
The SQL Server and IIS are located in different un-trusted domain. I am however able to connect to the SQL Server using user id and password. In my web.config file:
<add name="ConnectionName1" connectionString="Data Source=IpAddress,Port#;Initial Catalog=DatabaseName;Integrated Security=true;persist security info=False; Trusted_Connection=Yes;" providerName="System.Data.SqlClient"/> à Doesn’t work
<add name="ConnectionName2" connectionString="Data Source=IpAddress,Port#;Initial Catalog=DatabaseName;uid=user;pwd=password;" providerName="System.Data.SqlClient"/> Ă WorksBased on the error message it looks like there is no user passed to the SQL server.
What am I missing? At this point I am thankful for any input…
