Cannot Use The Special Principal 'sa'. (Microsoft SQL Server, Error: 15405)
Dec 31, 2007
Hello All, I'm hoping someone else has run into this, because I can't find any posts about it that are helpfull.
I just updated our Dev SQL 2005 db to be able to use new 2005 key words with the script:
EXEC sp_dbcmptlevel 'myDbName' , 90
This is all well and good until I notice my sa account no longer has a user mapping to my database. In managment studio when I go to Security - Logins - and sa properties If I try to add user sa to my Db I get the following errors:
I'm access the SQL Server through a client on my local machine, the Server is set to mixed authentication, actual check box is labeled Sql Server and WIndows Authentication Mode. Hopefully I'm just doing something dumb, which is highly likely since I'm a developer and not a DBA.
Hello, The problem which i am facing in SQL Server 2005 is that, I have 2 database and the owner of both the databases is sa but when I go to database > security > users here I cannot find 'sa' as user. when I am going to add that user I get following error : cannot use special principal 'sa'
also when I connect sa on other computer I will not connect
I have already checked following thing : The Authontication mode of SQL is mixed mode database owner is also sa sa is also enable
On localhost this application works fine but when I put on remote server. I am getting following errors. For both localhost and server, I am using same remote sql 2000. I will appreciate any help.
Thanks,
Arif

I am trying to create a linked server between 2 SQL Server 2005 boxes. When I create the linked server I specify a login for the connection. The strange part is that I get the following error when it goes to test the connection:
The test connection to the linked server failed Login failed for user 'Domainuser'. (Microsoft SQL Server, Error: 18456)
I can use the SQL mangement studio to conenct to the database using this same login. The login has all the server roles assigned to it also.
Can anyone shed some light as to what may be the problem?
We have mirroring setup for 5 dbs, 4 of which are synchronized and 1 which is in "synchronizing" state on the principal and "restoring" state on the mirror. Mirroring for all dbs has been working fine for the past several months and we have a witness that has allowed automatic failover in the past without problems.
This database has several bulk inserts performed throughout the day and am sure there is some latency due to the size of these transactions.
Not sure as to why this is happening all of a sudden, but the db in question has been in this state for the past 12 hrs. I checked the mirroring status on the principal and it states that it is "synchronizing: data is being transferred from principal to mirror", but the mirror server states that db is in "restoring" state. Can anyone suggest as to how I can get the database on the mirroring server to get back to "mirror, synchronizing/restoring..." state? Or suggest on how I can troubleshoot this?
An error has occurred while establishing a connection to the server. When connecting to SQL Server 2005, this failure may be caused by the fact that under the default settings SQL Server does not allow remote connections. (provider: Named Pipes Provider, error: 40 - Could not open a connection to SQL Server) (Microsoft SQL Server, Error: 53)
I have deleted a windows login user under security in SQL 2012 Management Studio. The users have also been removed from the associated databases. When I try to add back the login, I receive the message 'The server principal 'xxxx' already exists'. What do I need to do so that I can re-add the login ?

Database server: SQL Server 2005 Developer Edition with SP1 Application: An application developed by Visual Studio 2005 using C# (.Net framework 2.0) and ADO .Net 2.0.
Principal server: computerA Mirror server: computerB Witness server: computerC Mirroring mode: High availability with auto failover
Connection String: Data Source=computerA;Failover Partner=computerB;Initial Catalog=test_mirroring;Persist Security Info=True;User ID=sa;
(Part A) At the beginning of the test, computerA was in principal role. I started my testing application and connected to computerA without any problem. Then I disconnected the connection of computerA to the network by unplugging the network cable of computerA. The failover of database from computerA to computerB was carried out without problem. computerB was in principal role at that time. The application was pending for about 45 seconds and running again without problem. Then I re-connected computerA to network and it became the mirror server. computerB was still in principal role. Up to this point, all works fine, but the problem was coming next. (Part B) I disconnected computerB from network, database failover occurred, computerA became principal again. But my application cannot switch the database connection to computerA and then kept pending. Then, I re-connected computerB to network. It was surprised that the application switched the database connection to computerA successfully at that point.
My questions:
1. I think Part B is abnormal, isn€™t it? The application should be able to failover from computerB to computerA, because it works fine when failover from computerA to computerB. 2. Is there anything wrong in my code leads to the abnormal behavior of the application in Part B. 3. How can I achieve Part B? Any suggestion or idea?
Dear all,On Win2000 server with SP3, I am trying to access a SQL Server 7.0database, "TestDB", from VB6 via a SQL Server ODBC system DSN using ADO2.7. In SQL Server Enterprise Manager, there is a login named "Tester".In its property window, NO "Server Roles" was assigned but its"Database Access" was set to "TestDB". This login was also made as theuser of "TestDB" with "public", "db_datareader" and "db_datawriter"selected as its "Database role membership". All the tables I am tryingto access in "TestDB" were created under "Tester".My code is like:Set conn = New ADODB.Connectionconn.Open "DSN=TestDSN;UID=Tester;PWD=test"Set cmd = New ADODB.Commandcmd.ActiveConnection = conncmd.CommandText = SQLset rs = cmd.Execute()If I set the SQL to something like "SELECT * FROM tbl_test", I alwaysget an error of "-2147217865" saying "[Microsoft][ODBC SQL ServerDriver][SQL Server] Invalid object name tbl_test". If I set the SQL to"SELECT * FROM Tester.tbl_test", everything runs properly. Could anyoneplease kindly advise why the first SQL is not working? Or in otherwords, why must I prefix the table name with its owner while the DBconnection is already made under that owner name? Thanks in advance.Tracy

I was in the process of installing Microsof Project 2003 when we suddenly decided to move up to Microsoft Project 2007. We removed SharePoint 3.0 and SQL Server 2K so all that is installed on the box is Windows Server 2003 with all Service Packs. During the install of SQL Server 2005, here is the error message we get.
