Login Failed Connecting To New Principal After Failover
Jan 2, 2007
Hello,
I have setup database mirroring on two Windows 2003 R2 x64 servers using SQL Server 2005 SP1 Developer Edition. Our application is connecting to SQL Server using a SQL Server login. The application is using ADO and SQL Native Client to connect to the server. After a failover, our app attempts to reconnect to the database. The reconnect fails with the error:
Cannot open database "db1" requested by the login. The login failed.
The login is not associated with a user in the new principal database. I run sp_change_users_login to reconnect the user and login. sp_change_users_login says that it fixed 1 orphaned user. Our app then reconnects successfully.
I have tried several failovers, and each time I see the same behavior. The association between the login and user gets lost.
The issue is definitely with the login. I tried using sa to connect to the database, and then our app was able to reconnect after a failover.
Is this a known issue with database mirroring? Is it fixed in SP2?
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?

I am getting following error message due to which i am not able to access database

I just loaded the .NET framework on one of my servers. The server is a Windows 2000 domain controller running SQL Server 7. I created an aspx file that runs fine on my Windows XP Pro machine. I copied the file to the Windows 2000 Server. When I attempt to run the file the following error message is returned:
Login failed for user 'PDMFN1IWAM_PDMFN'. Description: An unhandled exception occurred during the execution of the current web request. Please review the stack trace for more information about the error and where it originated in the code.
Exception Details: System.Data.SqlClient.SqlException: Login failed for user 'PDMFN1IWAM_PDMFN'.
The IWAM_PDMFN account does exist. I've never had to add the IWAM user to SQL Server users in the past.
Does anyone have any information about this error?

I have a windows 2008 with SQL Server 2008 R2 VM on Azure. I am trying to connect to the SQL server for the first time using SSMS, but have not been able it. I have a VPN tunnel, so I am connecting using Windows authentication. The error I get back from SSMS is:
Login failed for user 'domainusername'. (Microsoft SQL Server, Error: 18456).In the event viewer I see this error message: Login failed for user 'domainusername'. Reason: Token-based server access validation failed with an infrastructure error. Check for previous errors. [CLIENT: <local machine>]
I have done the following:
- created an endpoint for port 1433 - opened port 1433 in the firewall - Ran the MSSQLSERVER service as the build-in users Network Services, Local System, and Local Service, and as a local and domain administrator, with the same exact result each time. - I get the same result trying to connect locally or remotely. - I get the same result trying to connect using sqlcmd.
hi, so i have a new box and I'm trying to get my websites and SQL Server 2005 Standard Edition working on it, but the pages give me the following error when I try to load them: "Cannot Open Database "XXXX" requested by login. The login failed. Login failed for user 'xxx'" Everything seems exactly the same settings and user-wise from my old box to my new one, but nevertheless everything I've tried gives me the same error. I've tried creating new users in SQL Server and giving them appropriate permissions to my database. I've even tried just using the built in 'sa' account. Nothing seems to change the error, except when I give it the incorrect password then it just says 'login failed' This leads me to believe that i'm successfully logging into the SQL Server, but it doesn't want to give me access to the database I'm requesting access too. But "apparently" the account i'm using should have access to the database. If nothing else the 'sa' account should, but that didn't work either. I'm stumped. Any ideas?
We have a SQL 2000 Active/Passive cluster running on Windows 2000. On one node, everything logs in fine (second node is powered off). I can use local authentication fine in OSQL (-E) and even see my connection in SQLEM current activity as [DomainUser] for the NT account which I am logged in as. Then I bring the second node online and initiate a failover. SQL Server starts but Cluster Admin cannot connect and starts throwing this Anonymous Logon error. I open a command prompt and try the same OSQL (-E) local login and sure enough it is also giving the Anonymous Logon connection user. I do not understand why the failover to a second node is causing the Trusted Connection Local authentication to switch to Anonymous instead of the [DomainUser] which I am using. Any help is appreciated. John.

Been looking through the forums for a solution to this problem.I already tried granting access through statements such as:exec sp_grantloginaccess N1'machineNameASPNET'But they don't seem to work.. i vaguely remember seeing somewhere a DOS command line statement that grants access to the ASPNET_WP and that fixed my problem before on another computer.. but this is a new computer and i forgot to write down the command.Can anyone help explain and propose a solution to my problem. Many thanxs.
I am using the MSDE to connect to my ASP.NET application. I get this error after clicking the login button of my login page. Anyone know why this would happen?

Hey Microsoft: this affects development that will eventually sell a lot of seats on SharePoint Server 2007. If you guys and gals can't straighten out this mess, you can't expect custom solutions with custom web parts. So pay attention for your own good. Yes, SPS 2007 is what this is all about. I've created simpe web parts and deployed them, same VS 2005, but I need local development and debugging for more complex stuff. I'm really disappointed that you have no solution for this problem.
I've seen other posts on this, but the result seems to be the same: if you fix it, it's by accident, not by design.
1. I created a blank ASP.NET web site
2. I added a web part manager
3. I added a web part zone
I get the error described above. I have no idea why SQL Server settings are so screwed up.
I've tried all the stuff in the other posts - security settings, command line installation, etc. None of those worked.
The default template(s) don't copy anything into App_Data, nor create an empty folder. I don't know why that is. I have other web sites working just fine, but they use remote SQL databases, or local ones I created, and didn't need profile management (no forms authentication, no web parts, no web zones).
I've also started out with a local database, using SQL Authentication, later moving it to a remote server, and never had any problems. The SQL Server developer edition and Express seem to work just fine. I can also debug stored procs when the .mdf is in App_Data. So the problem isn't one of connectivity.
What would cause the default screw-up? This would seem to point from all directions to a problem with Visual Studio (2005)? The installation is defalt - perhaps some extras included (copy local), but nothing unusual. AJAX for ASP.net is installed, but not used in the above "default web site" trial. Likewise Syncfusion's tools, which work fine on other developer workstations at this same location, all of which are from the same image (purchased at the same time & imaged). That web parts work on other boxes, running all the same management tools (anti-virus, remote sys admin/sms etc.) makes none of those suspect.
I think Microsoft needs to have a clean problem solution and publish it. SP1 certainly doesn't fix it. What's worse is the stupid, lame error message. "I can't open the default database". Well, what did you try? What do you think the default is? What settings are you using? Why is there no debugging information other than the usual worthless trace information showing it's all deep within the ProviderBase and SqlClient namespace code? How is that supposed to be helpful?
If anyone has anything solid, not guesses, I'd like to know.
if server 161 is principal and server 162 mirror, it connects ok, but when I exchange server roles, connect fails (the error message is: Cannot open database "TestDB" requested by the login. The login failed. in LOGIN)
the connect string using OLE DB is:
Provider=SQLOLEDB.1;Persist Security Info=False;User ID=test;Password=test;Failover Partner=10.0.1.162;Initial Catalog=TestDB;Data Source=10.0.1.161;Use Procedure for Prepare=1;Auto Translate=True;Packet Size=4096;Use Encryption for Data=False;Tag with column collation when possible=False
error message is the same
when I try to connect using VS 2005 using connection string Database=TestDB;User Id=test;Password=test;Server=10.0.1.161;Failover Partner=10.0.1.162, it works OK
i have installed SQL server 2005 (on local - client machine) with SQL Native Client and also
i'm using the Enterpirse library logger to write logs into a database. When choosing connection string i choose the database i want in the "connection properties" dialog box and push 'Test connection' button. everything goes well.
then i open the SQL Server Management studio express and connect to the databse to check some things, from that point on , when i push the 'Test Connection' button in the Enterprise library i get the error:
"cannot open user default database. Login failed. login failed for user My'server/MyuserName'"
even when i close the sql server manager , it is still stuck - the connection test doesn't work anymore.... it only work when i restart the computer.
I Guys I am trying to create an application that writes data to a SQL database (studio express). The application works fine but as soon as I open the table with the SQL server management studio express the application does not work any more displaying the following message:
€śCannot open user default database. Login failed. Login failed for user€¦€?
If I siwtch off and on the computer the problem disappear till the table will be open with the database management studio express!!!!!
I setup a mirrored database with a witness server. I can login to the database just fine when I set it up. The servers are in Active Directory but the account "rps" is an SQL account.
When I failover the database for testing, I cannot login to the mirrored database even though it is now the princpal database and it is syncronized.
Here are the errors I receive.
11/13/2007 15:05:13,Logon,Unknown,Login failed for user 'rps'. [CLIENT: 172.23.10.118], 11/13/2007 15:05:13,Logon,Unknown,Error: 18456<c/> Severity: 14<c/> State: 16.,
I have setup a mirror configuration with a witness to be able to use the automatic failover. The principal is DBSP01, the mirror is DBSP02 and the witness is DBSP03. I have an application running an DBCP01. When the mirroring is working, the application can connect to the database on DBSP01. I disconnect dbsp01 from the network, so that DBSP02 becomes the principal. When I try to connect the application to the database on DBSP02, the login fails. Whithout the mirroring I was able to logon to DBSP02, but as soon as it is part of the mirroring, I'm not able to connect to it anymore, whatever the state of the database is. What could be the problem? Can anybody help?
Hi I have asp.net2 app using SQLExpress which works fine in VS2005.

Cannot open database abc.mdf requested by login. The login failed. Login failed for user 'machinenameASPNET' Any help much appreciated
I have a script component. What it does, it queries the a table using a connectionstring assigned to it in the Connection Managers Editor (which is an ado.net adapter). this works fine when i'm using a windows login in the ado.net connection manager. But when i changed my connection to use SQL server login, I encounter this error:

I am getting the above error. On server1 I am running a dts package via a sql server job (sql server2005). This has been working perfectly for over a year. This package needs to access a database on server2. The database in question on server2 was recently restored from our produciton environment to refresh the data. Every since thsi time the job on server1 is failing with the above error.
Steps I have taken so far: droped the user from server2 and recreated it gave the user sysadmin rights on server 2 and server1

I have been working on it for days. I will gladly pay someone to work this out with me over the phone/email. I'll send you a check before we start.
I have created a new database within SQLServer Express 2005 and have an ASP page in IIS. Any time i attempt to access the database I get the following error:
[Microsoft][ODBC SQL Server Driver][SQL Server]Cannot open database "testDB" requested by the login. The login failed.
The ODBC connection that I have created works fine if connecting to the same table (literally three sample fields with two records) in an Access database.
The database connection that I am using is:
Set DatabaseConnection = Server.CreateObject("ADODB.Connection") DatabaseConnection.Open "DSN=testDB;UID=EINSTEINAdministrator&pwd=password;DATABASE=testDB;APP=ASP Script" Set rs = Server.CreateObject("ADODB.recordset") SQLString = "SELECT * FROM testTable" rs.Open SQLString, DatabaseConnection if NOT rs.EOF then Response.Write(rs("testField1") & " - " & rs("testField2")) end if rs.Close DatabaseConnection.Close Set DatabaseConnection = Nothing
EINSTEIN is the name of the server, rs = Recordset. I have tried changing to just Administrator instead of machinenameAdministrator with no success. I have got SQL Server Management Studio Express CTP, and can log in fine to SQL Server using EINSTEINAdministrator.
