The objective is to configure on a dev machine. Selecting New Database User is the easy part as the ***ASPNET user can be selected from the drop down listbox. What follows and what to do next is a myriad of choices. What needs to be done next? Is there a step-by-step document somewhere that you can refer?
I just moved my website to a shared host, and I face some trouble. Since there is more than one DB on the SQL server they don't want to create a ASPNET user. Is there a way to make my SQLCommand use my user name instead of ASPNET ?
Otherwise, can anyone explain to me the result of the ASPNET user on other website who will use the same server as me security wise ?
I am going though the ASP.NET QuickStart tutorials. One of the lessons is to add a datagrid. I am able to do that with VWD and am able to connect to the database in VWD. However when I try to execute the application I get a "Login failure" message because the user pcName/ASPNET cannot login. How do I add the ASPNET user to the SQLExpress database? There don't seem to be any administration tools that were installed with SQL Server Express 2005. Thanks in advance for the help!

I have developed an asp.net application and have deployed it to the web server. The application accesses an SQL Server to allow users to make changes to data. My connection string is the following:
On the SQL Server side, I have a trigger that logs when changes are made and by whom. The suser_sname returns <Servername>ASPNET as the user making the change. Why is this? Should it not be the user id of the user? If the SQL Server thinks that the current user is ASPNET then how can it make changes when this is not a user defined for the database.
The web site is set up to allow for Integrated Windows Authentication only. SQL Server is on the same machine as the web server.
I am using MSDE in an ASP .NET application using forms authentication in order to the user can visit my website anonymously but have to authenticate in some pages.
Web server and MSDE server are in the same computer.
I would like to know how role I should set for the ASPNET sql server user. I am using Microsoft SQL Web Data Administrator and when I am creating the ASPNET user, then a page with some roles is shown.
Roles like public (default), db_owner, db_accessadmin, db_datareader, db_datawriter...
I had applied db_datareader and db_datawriter but now, when I use store procedures in my code, an error is made so I have applied db_owner role for the ASPNET user.
Is this correct or db_owner is a excessive privileged role for the ASPNET user?
can anyone help me with this error message, i follow the instruction of someone in other forum, but i cant find where the SQL Server Enterprise manager is, i am using MSDE.

We have an ASP.net application that currently sits on a server that runs IIS and sql server. We are spliting IIS and SQL server into 2 seperate machines. I believe I have the connection string okay as I can see the entries in the security log on the sql server machine however it keeps saying aspnet user invalid user or invalid password. What gives with this. We put .net on the sql server however this just added the aspnet user to the machine. Do I need to create an aspnet user inside the sql server and give it control of the dbases as well? I am running this using the personal web server not IIS on a server. I have a project on my desktop and am using the "local" IIS or personal web server that comes with visual studio out of the box. What kills me is that when I put the project on a real IIS server that has sql server on the same machine I have no issues. However when I split the dbase and the IIS apart onto 2 servers I get this aspnet invalid user or invalid password. HELP
Hi I created my DB in SQL 2005 Express in VS IDE. I have my app in IIS. When I try to use the DB (e.g. try to login a user in the app) it gives me the following error: Cannot open database "cvRepository" requested by the login. The login failed.Login failed for user 'MyPCASPNET'. My guess was that I had to give permissions to ASPNET user so I did in SQL Server Management. Still not working! Checked my Connection string and I think it's fine... connectionString="Data Source=.SQLEXPRESS;Database=cvRepository;Integrated Security=True;User Instance=True" Still not working! Can anyone explain me what's wrong and to solve this?!
Hi all, I am new to ASP .NET and now I have been messing two days with the connection thing. I use the Visual Studio 2003 provided drag and drop SqlDataAdapter and SqlConnection to connect to the SQL 2000 server, developer edition (configured with the Windows authentication mode), but whenever I tried I always got a "Login failed for user mymachine/ASPNET" error. Can anyone help me with this? I have also tried, as somebody did, adding one line "<identity imperonate="true"/> to the Web.config file, but had the same kind of error. Do I have do make some change to my SQL server? Thanks a lot! Charlize

Respected Members, I have a question, when our aspx page is trying to access the SQL Server 2000 database than before this do we have to creaete a user with the name of ASPNET in SQL Server 2000, or without creating this paticular user(its the default user of ASP.NET account) our aspx pages can also access the SQL Server 2000,I have already SQL Server 2000 running in "SQL Server Authentication Mode" so while creating the user do I have to create it in "Windows Authentication" or "SQL Server Authentication", can you provide some link where I could find complete steps for craeting the ASPNET user or if some one can tell all the steps in details here.
I've been trying to workout how, without impersonation, I can allow an application running under the default ASPNET user to access a network resource (SQL Server/ADAM) not on the same physical machine.
It seems that because the ASPNET user is a local user not a domain user I can't setup windows authentication on the network resource. That seems to leave impersonation which MS et al say is unwise.
I've just started to learn to use Visual Studio, and has come to database access. I ran into this errormessage:
access denied for user <machine name>ASPNET
The book I'm using just only say that I have to grant the ASPNET user account permissions before the Web application will have access to a SQL database. ... Seems clear at first glance ... but I lack a "how to" ...!
---
I've tried to search the net for solutions ... several thousands of pages came up ... indicating that I'm far from the first who have this problem. ... So after I now have spend hours reading, without finding any useful ansver to the question. ...
So let me just tell the most popular answers. (So You don't repeat something I allready have read hundreds of times.): This question has been asked before Yes, true answer, but it doesn't help.
See the FAQ If it was stated were in the FAQ to look it could have been useful.
Use something called "enterprise manager" (WIN XP pro, don't have this, though.) I use WIN XP pro, so that answer dosn't help me either.
Im getting ASP.Net 2.0 Beta 2 setup on my home machine to kick around with.

I hope anyone can help me with this. I am having problems connecting to the aspnet database. It all started when I noticed that I could not log in to my webapplication anymore under debug mode, although I was able to log in when remotely accessing the website. I got the error message that the machineaspnet user did not have access to the database: "Login failed for user 'GM-FEDORSASPNET' "This was highly peculiar and rather annoying so I tried several things to straighten this out, but it only made things worse!I read that this had to with permissions of the database in question, al though I could not understand why permissions suddenly had changed. I tried to change the rights by attaching it to Management Studio Express and defining an aspnet login, but that failed because a login under that name was not accepted. I tried to make a copy of aspnet.mdf, delete the original and rename the copy to aspnet.mdf. When that didn't work, I then deleted the aspnet.mdf, counting on it that it would be regenerated automatically, but alas. I located the aspnet_regsql.exe tool to regenerate the database, but got the following error message: System.Web.HttpException: Unable to connect to SQL Server database. ---> System.Data.SqlClient.SqlException: 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)What can I do?
Hi. Thru a sproc, I drop & re-create some temp tables.When I call that sproc from the client, though, I cannot drop thetables.I need to allow the user, say "Alex", to drop/create tables (actually,that would be DDL). Which role should "Alex" assume ? How do I do that?I run the following sproc named, say, "CREATE_TABLE" (SNIP):__________________________________________________ __________________Set @StrSQL = 'if exists (select * from dbo.sysobjects where id =object_id(N''[dbo].[' + @TableName + ']'') and OBJECTPROPERTY(id,N''IsUserTable'') = 1) drop table [dbo].[' + @TableName + ']'Exec (@StrSQL)Set @StrSQL = 'CREATE TABLE [dbo].[' + @TableName + '] ([GROUP] [varchar] (6) COLLATE SQL_Latin1_General_CP1_CI_AS NULL ,...........[Stuff] [varchar] (20) COLLATE SQL_Latin1_General_CP1_CI_AS NULL) ON [PRIMARY]'Exec (@StrSQL)Set @StrSQL = 'GRANT SELECT , UPDATE , INSERT , DELETE ON [dbo].['+ @TableName + '] TO [Alex]'Exec (@StrSQL)__________________________________________________ __________________As you can see, it is dynamic, because I need to repeat it for many@TableName values - that means, further more, that I will be executingthis in the context of the current user, Alex, and therefore I have togive Alex rights to both executing the sproc and to the tables referredto by the sproc, as specified by @TableName.I created a _TEST sproc which contains only the following:_______________________________________________CREATE PROCEDURE _TEST ASDROP TABLE [dbo].[SomeTable]RETURN_______________________________________________When I execute it from the client, thru ADODB, on user Alex, I get"User does not have permission to execute this operation on tableSomeTable"The table has been created thru "CREATE_TABLE", abovePlease help, I have to finish this tomorrow, and I'm under tons ofpressure.Thanks a lot,Alex.
How do I add login user ASPNET to my SQL 2000 Desktop Engine Server?. I can not find the "Server Manager" in the Start - Programs. Is there any other way to get around adding ASPNET login to the SQL server so I can test my VB program. I got the error: Login failed for user 'com_nameASPNET'.
I am trying to create an ASPNET Login for a SQL Server express Database (As Installed via Visual Studio) so my ASP Web Applications can invoke the Database. But SQLServer Managemnt Tool is not recognising any ASPNET user names I try. I am trying to add via Microsoft SQL Server Management Studio Express, but get an error " An Object (User or Built-in Security principal) with the following name cannot be found "mycomputerASPNET". "
Any obvious reason why ASPNET is not being recognised as a Login object object
Unfortunately I am on VISTA and IIS7 ( I have enabled, and checked that ASP Applications Run.)
- The process works OK on my other XP machine, ASP.NET via IIS 5.1, which seems more straightforward to set up.
I wanted to deploy my Sql 2005 reports to my local machine and want it to get viewed by all the users through Asp.Net application.
User can directly view the reports by clicking on the direct link to report but when they try to view it using application having Report Viewer, running on iis it gives acess denied 401 error and can't view the reports
If I make my application to run on default port then it works fine
If I give rights to <particularMachineNameASPNET> then that user can view the report but if there are 100 users then will i Add 100 such entries???

Hi When I am trying to connect to MS Sql Server 2000 through Asp.net using C# , I am getting the error : “ Login Failed for HTASPNET �. Although I have added permission for this account to access the database . I would be very grateful to you if you could kindly explain to me what is the problem. Thank You.
I installed SQL Server 2005 and Visual Studio 2005 and have discovered that the ASPNET machine account was not added as a user when going into "Computer Management". I obviously need this to run ASP.net apps. I tried going to the Administrators group to add user ASPNET, but the system can't find this user. How can I install the ASPNET account?
I seem to remember that when using VS2003 to create a website which connected to a MSDE database, I needed to explicitly grant access to the database for ASPNET machine account using the following SQL commands from within a .sql script: EXEC sp_grantlogin '<machine>ASPNET'EXEC sp_grantdbaccess '<machine>ASPNET' With VS2005, it sppears that upon creating an .MDF database in the App_Data folder this is no longer necessary. I'd be interested to know why this is so. Does VS2005 automatically do this when the database is created? If anybody could shed some light on this I'd be interested. Thanks,Wayne.

Hi, I've recently copied an SQL DB (detach, copy data files, reattach) from SQL-Express on one machine to SQL 2005 on a new host. However I cannot set the permissions correctly for the ASPNET account. It's current permissions use <oldhost>ASPNET which persists even if I remove it and reload the DB. I need to allow the access for the new host machine's ASPNET account but it cannot be found :/ Any advice anyone can offer would be greatly appreciated! Regards, Doug
