I am trying to connect to a remote SQL server via Management Studio. I am using the windows credentials I use to log into the computer but when I enter the same domainusername and password I get error 18456. I check the logs and see it is a state 6 error. After checking http://blogs.msdn.com/sql_protocols/archive/2006/02/21/536201.aspx I see that means
Attempt to use a Windows login name with SQL Authentication
Is it possible for me to access a SQL server remotely?
This error has come up time and again and I can't seem to find a solution.
Specs: SQL Server 2005 v9.00.3054 on x64, Windows Server 2003 SP2
The user is a member of an active directory group. When he connects from his workstation via Management Stuidio, the error is:
Login failed for user '<domain><user>'. [CLIENT: xx.xx.xx.xxx]
I've dropped and re-created the login for the group, but to no avail. I've tried
SELECT * FROM sys.server_principals and I get a valid entry <domain>/<user> 81 0x0105... G WINDOWS_GROUP 0 2008-04-04 13:05:00.667 2008-04-04 13:05:00.673 <dbname> us_english NULL
I've verified that the user is a db_owner in the database and that this database is the default for the group.
I also tried SELECT endpnt.name,
suser_name(perms.grantee_principal_id) as grantee_principal,
and get Dedicated Admin Connection <domain><user> CONNECT SQL GRANT TSQL Local Machine <domain><user> CONNECT SQL GRANT TSQL Named Pipes <domain><user> CONNECT SQL GRANT TSQL Default TCP <domain><user> CONNECT SQL GRANT TSQL Default VIA <domain><user> CONNECT SQL GRANT
I am running SQL Server 2005 x64 SP2 and have problem connecting to database with the SQL logins I created. I test the database login using Microsoft ODBC Administrator to connect the the database locally, only 'sa' can login. All other sql logins I created fails and returns this message:
--------------------------- Microsoft SQL Server Login --------------------------- Connection failed: SQLState: '28000' SQL Server Error: 18456 [Microsoft][ODBC SQL Server Driver][SQL Server]Login failed for user 'doteasylogin'.
--------------------------- OK ---------------------------
In the SQL Logs, it shows: Error: 18456, Severity: 14, State: 12.
I have SQL 2005 Expess installed on Windows Server 2003 SP1.
My application is running as a service and is set to depend on SQL Server instance... During the startup my app attempts to connect to the databes and it fails to do so, after 30 retries (1second appart). SQL Server log has this error msg: Error: 18456 "Severity: 14, State: 10"
Once the server has started, I cam manually start my application and it then sucesfully opens a connection to the database.
i am new to sql server 2005 express. I am trying to set up xp embedded database. I am trying to allow remote access to a central xp embedded database. i have the database on the sql server machine.
i am using the component database manager toll on a remote machine so that i can connect to the remote xp embedded database. when i try to connect to the db through sql server i get the following error in the log file.
2006-09-12 17:15:10.18 Logon Error: 18456, Severity: 14, State: 11. 2006-09-12 17:15:10.18 Logon Login failed for user 'HOSTNAMEGuest'. [CLIENT: XX.XX.XX.XX]
where HOSTNAME is the hostname of the pc that sql server 2005 is running.
XX.XX.XX.XX is the ip address of the client which is running component database manager tool.
Since some days, i have this problem : i changed RTCcomponentService password, and now, when the SQL Server RTC service start (correctly, with network service), i have this log error message : Login failed for user 'CGAUPARTCComponentService'. [CLIENT: <named pipe>] ErrorReportingManager: Error raised, major=184, minor=56, severity=14, attempting to create sym
so, the service run with network (nt authority) correctly, but i have this error message. I think that the sql server database connect with rtccomponentservice old password. How I can change the password on this connection ? or what is de default password for RTCcomponentService ?
Error: 18456, Severity: 14, State: 16. Login failed for user 'PRIsqlservice'. [CLIENT: 172.16.9.2]
in the log repeated every 15 seconds or so. I am logged into the server as prisqlservice, I have started the sql server and sql server agent with prisqlservice and I can access databases and tables inside the Server Management studio. I have set up the login prisqlservice and given it dbo owner access to all databases.
I am in the process of upgrading from 2000 to 2005. I have installed a new sql server 2005, restored backups of databases from 2000. I have also converted all packages and uploaded those to the new server (although they all point to the 2000 server). I have imported the jobs, but all but one are disabled and the one that is enabled ran okay when I ran it manually.
I have researched and researched this issue, and none seem to apply to my specific issue.

I am running SQL Server 2005 SP2 on Windows Server 2003.
I am continously geting below error.Please tell me how to avoid this error.and How I can supress this error popping into error logs?

I have a SQL 2005 SP1 test server running Developer Edition on top of Windows Server 2003 SP1. We're testing out a 3rd party application that is using Windows Authentication to connect to SQL 2005. The SQL Error Log is saturated with the error message listed in the subject line. The text accompanying the message alternates between "Login failed for user 'MYDOMAINTESTDA1$'. [CLIENT: <named pipe>]" and "Login failed for user 'MYDOMAINTESTDA1$'. [CLIENT: xxx.xxx.xxx.xxx]".
There are two strange parts to this: 1) The application appears to be working fine on the surface, and, 2) The MYDOMAINTESTDA1$ account mentioned in the error text is not the user account that we are using to connect the application to SQL 2005. TESTDA1 is the server name that the 3rd party software is running remotely from.
I've looked up "error state 11" using the following resource:
It describes error states 11 and 12 as "Valid login but server access failure" but I'm not sure what that means. Why would SQL care about the computer account hosting the application?
When I try to make a connection to my SQL Database I get the following error in the ERRORLOG file for SQL:
Error: 18456, Severity: 14, State: 5 Login failed for user 'xxx'. [CLIENT: <local machine>]
I can verify that the user 'xxx' does exist and has the proper password in Active Directory. This error did not start happening until I re-installed SQL Server 2005 (I had another issue that has been resolved). I cannot pin-point this problem. Any help???
I am installing diskeeper administrator on one server with at database on our sql2005 server. When I am trying to connect to the database the diskeeper software says verify username and password. I try to connect using windows authentication .And in the serverlog this error occurs

I just installed SQL Server 2005 with SP2 on Vista. When I try to login from SQL Server Management Studio, I get the following error message in the log: --- 2007-09-15 18:58:02.23 Logon Error: 18456, Severity: 14, State: 11. 2007-09-15 18:58:02.23 Logon Login failed for user '<computer name><user account>'.[CLIENT: <local machine>] ---
Since I can't login, I can't try some of the stuff I have seen here, such as creating new logins etc.
I installed Analysis Server and Integration Services at the same time. Logging in to them both works fine.
I use windows authentication. I don't know if changing that helps, as I don't know how to change it without logging in in the first place...
This is on SQL Server 2005 for the sa account. I am just looking the in the sql server error log.I know this is a password mismatch. Where is it mismatched? Does there have to be a 'sa' network user account now with 2005?
I am getting the following error in the ERRORLOG File when I am trying to connect to SQL Server 2005 Enterprise Edition 64bit with SP2 from Reporting Services Configuration tool - Database Setup. The SQL Server database and reporting services are on 2 different servers. Both are running 2003 SP2 64 bit.

I know my password is valid as I can logged into SSMS using SA. I can create the 2 reportserver databases using the Reporting Services Configuration tool on the database server. The db server is in MIXED mode.
What am I missing?

I'm currently evaluating Visual Studio Team System using SQL Server 2005 (9.00.3042.00, SP2, Enterprise Evaluation Edition) and from time to time, I get this error:
Error: 18456, Severity: 14, State: 16.
If I try to connect to the database using SQL Server Management Studio, I get the error:
"A connection was successfully established with the server, but then an error occurred during the login process. (provider: TCP provider, error: 0 - An existing connection was forcibly closed by the remote host.) (Microsoft SQL Server, Error: 10054)".
If I restart the SQL Server services, everything works fine! This is driving me nuts!
Additional information: - The user accounts and security are OK - they have been double checked, and once the services are restarted everything works fine. - SQL Server is configured to accept remote connections - again, once the services are restarted eveything works fine. - I have disabled meanwhile the following protocols: VIA, Named Pipes, Shared Memory both at the Server and Client - and the problem still remains.
We are experiencing intermittent authentication errors "Error: 18456, Severity: 14, State: 10" on a customer's production server. This is a new server that has just been rolled out in the past several months. Rebooting the server appears to make the problem go away. We are using SQL authentication from a separate server that is running IIS. The application always uses the same username and password to connect.

The strange thing is that the user in the error above is not the user she's trying to connect as (domain2user2, say). user2 can remote desktop to the server and log in there.
I know this state implies "Valid login but server access failure".
Has anyone run into this, and what more information would be useful to know? Thanks!

Hi, I have a service using SQL 2005 Express database, the service is started automatically on system startup, most of the times it can logon to the database successfully, however, sometimes, I got the following error:

Any suggestions?

I then try to run the same app from the client computer, it gives me:
Login failed for user 'LAPTOPGuest'.
After looking up the web for solution, I found that I can test the connection from the HOST computer in this way:
C:Documents and Settingskit>sqlcmd -E -S laptopsqlexpress 1> 2>
The test is successful
Now I run the same command on the CLIENT computer
C:Documents and SettingsKit>sqlcmd -E -S laptopsqlexpress Msg 18456, Level 14, State 1, Server LAPTOPSQLEXPRESS, Line 1 Login failed for user 'LAPTOPGuest'.
Now I can sure that from the client computer it cannot make a connection to it, then I look at the errorLog from my host computer
2006-08-13 21:41:00.34 Logon Error: 18456, Severity: 14, State: 11. 2006-08-13 21:41:00.34 Logon Login failed for user 'LAPTOPGuest'.

Now I know it is actually Error: 18456, Severity: 14, State: 11.

Valid login but server access failure
It tells the connection string and SQL Express seem to be set up properly but the server access failed the remote connection
I have previously had SQL Server 2000 installed. I uninstalled SQL 2000 before I install SQL express but somehow the SQL Server Service Manager is still running at startup, and C:Program FilesMicrosoft SQL Server80 and its files are still exist after uninstallation..... Could this be a problem?
The Knowledge base suggestion on "enabling remote connection" is very simple and I do not understand why it is so difficult to me just to make a remote connection test work..... please, I need your help.
Recently, one of my clients began receiving this error. My team gave them sysadmin permissions, but this is terrible practice. I have read into disablying simple file sharing, but I don't even think I have the option to do it. I look in mycomputer > tools > view and don't see any option for this. Besides, the problem just started occuring recently, within the last week. The server is a cluster with veritas clustering and the edition is sql server 2000. Has anybody ever had a problem like this and have a good fix? Thanks for any help in advance... -Kyle
Last night I setup my MOSS 2007 server and SQL 2005, I got everything working fine in short order.
I had forgotten to look for updates for SQL 2005 so i decided I would run Windows Update.
SQL Server 2005 Critical Update for SQL Server 2005 Service Pack 2 (KB 934458)
Tuesday, March 04, 2008 Microsoft Update
SQL Server 2005 Microsoft SQL Server 2005 Service Pack 2 (KB 921896)
Those two updates were applied, then after a reboot I began getting the login failed error.
I can login using windows authentication as DOMAINAdministrator, I can also login as SA, but i am trying to figure out why it is denying me logins as DOMAINSharepoint
Has anybody had prior experience with this or know what the deal is?
We recently upgraded to SQL 2005 from SQL 2000. We have most of our issues ironed out however about every 1 minute there is a message in the Application Event log and the SQL log that states:
EVENT ID 18456 Login Failed for the users DOMAIN/ACCOUNT [CLIENT: <local machine>]
This is a state 16 message which I thought meant that the account does not have access to the default database. The account is actually the account that the SQL services run under.
Any ideas? We can't seem to figure this one out. We actually upgraded to 2005 from 2000 and had an error appear after every reboot that prevented the SQL Agent from running(This application has failed to start because GAPI32.dll was not found. Re-installing the application may fix this problem.) We did a full uninstall of SQL and reinstalled fresh and restored the databases from .bak files and that is when the EVENT ID 18546 started occuring every minute.
We don't have any SQL heavy hitters here so please be detailed with any possible solutions. That you very much for any help you can provide!
