SQL Server Express SP2 Disabling SA Account
Apr 16, 2007
I recently updated a default instance of SQL Express to Service Pack 2. When I tried to attach my database I got an error "Login failed for user SA. The user is not associated with a trusted SQL server connection".
I found that my SA account for the instance was locked out. I unlocked it and everything worked again.
This happened to my on two different PC's using a default instance of SQL Express. Does anybody know why SA is being locked out? Thanks in advance.

Dear All,
I currently installed visual studio 2005. So together it als install sql server express. So then I install the sql server management studio express too. So the problem now I want to do is run asp.net pages. I want to know how to create a local account with my own password. Because now I can only login using default windows authentication so how can I create an account with for sql server authentication ? Another question is that for the server address in my asp.net page what must I write localhost or the name shown in the server name text box while logging in. Thanks.

Hi all,
I have a SQL Server 2005 Express edition instance set up on one server, and IIS on another server.
The SQL Server process account is a domain user account, which I have added to the local groups that SQL Server created during installation (I originally used a local user account instead of domain account; however, the problem occurs with both).
SQL Server runs fine, and if I set my IIS application pool identity to a domain admin, my web app can access the database and retrieve the data necessary.
However, I have a domain user account that I want to use to run the app pool and retrieve the data. The domain user account is added to the IIS_WPG group on the web server. On the database server, I have created a login for the account, as well as added it to the db_datareader role of the database that is used for the site.
However, the user is not able to connect to the SQL Server. I get the "Login failed for user <user account>" error in ASP.NET. I also tried connecting with SQL Server Management Studio, and I get the same error. I checked and the user has connect permission to the database server.
With admin accounts, there are no problems logging in, etc.
Any pointers are appreciated,
Thanks,
SA.
Edit: I was able to find out that the State is 11 for the error. According to http://blogs.msdn.com/sql_protocols/archive/2006/02/21/536201.aspx, this indicates "Valid login but server access failure." I am not sure how to resolve this.

When doing a unattended install of Microsoft SQL Server Express, I have a problem specifing the service to installed to be run under the as local system account.
I'm using: SQLACCOUNT & SQLPASSWORD parameters but it just won't work.
As default SQL Server is installed using the NETWORK SERVICE account, this causes the database to be read-only. What I want is to specifiy in the script that the service should run under the LOCAL SYSTEM account instead. This must also be OS-language independent.
I've tried:
SQLACCOUNT=NT AUTHORITYSYSTEM
SQLACCOUNT=NT AUTHORITYLOCAL SYSTEM
SQLACCOUNT=NT AUTHORITYLOCAL SERVICE
SQLACCOUNT=SYSTEM
SQLACCOUNT=BUILT-INSYSTEM
etc.
and even some different SID as:
S-1-5-18
S-1-5-19
All with no password with the SQLPASSWORD parameter:
SQLPASSWORD=
I still getting the same error while validating the service account.
Is there someone else who knows what I'm doing wrong?
Best regards,
Mattias

I have been running a script in SQL Server 2000 as sa also as a Active Directory user who has administrator rights (I tested both approaches SQL Server then Windows Authentication) in Query Analyser which grants execute rights to the stored procedures within the database instance and Query Analyser does not give any errors when I run the script. I have made sure that each transaction has a go after it. I then return to Enterprise Manager, check the rights (I apply them to roles so that when we create another SQL Server user we just grant him/her rights to the role) and discover that the role has not been granted the rights. I seems to be occurring only with 2 of the procedures. Is there a known bug that might be causing this?
yours sincerely

During install of SQL Server 2005, we can of course use a domain account or the built-in system account for running the services. I lean toward domain for obvious reaons but would like to know a +/- to each option and why I'd choose one over the other and what consequences or limitations one may encounter if I choose one over the other.

Bummer. I can't remember the SA password. I had setup a user account, but I can't change anything or add any new accounts using this login. I can't get in using the windows authentication method no matter how I am logged into this machine.
Any suggestions? I have never been able to use Windows Authentication. There must be something I'm missing here. I have spent hours and hours trying to get into this machine. I just want to replicate a database. This is very frustrating.
Thanks guys.

I'm trying to do an unattended install of SQL Express 2005 SP2, and specify that the service runs under the Local Service account. Prior versions of SQL Express worked fine.
With SQL Express 2005 SP2, however, the install fails on XP Pro SP2. It *does* work on Winows 2003 Server.
Here's the command line I'm using:
SQLEXPR.EXE /QB ADDLOCAL=ALL INSTANCENAME=FOO SECURITYMODE=SQL SAPWD=BAR SQLACCOUNT="NT AUTHORITYLOCAL SERVICE"
It fails at the end of the install, saying it can't start the service. If I use "NETWORK SERVICE", it works fine, but that's more privileges than I want the service to have. Is there something else on the command line that I can try to get it to work?
Is this even supported?

Hi,I have over 200 stored procedures and they have dependencies on each other (not necessarily a cyclic dependency).Is there a way in SQL Server 2005 that I can disable a dependency check while I am executing a script that creates those stored procedures, and then re-enable it after?Thanks.

I can get to the DB and find the user account, but I see nowhere to change the password? My app requires a password that meets Windows Security requirements and the one that was initially created is not long enough.....

Hello,
I am having trouble installing sql express from a command line on an XP o/s other than English, I know French and German have the problem I suspect this is caused by setting the sql account to ="NT AUTHORITYSYSTEM" my guess is that this is a localized string.
I get the following error
SQL Server Setup could not validate the service accounts. Either the service accounts have not been provided for all of the services being installed, or the specified username or password is incorrect. For each service, specify a valid username, password, and domain, or specify a built-in system account.
This is my command line
setup.exe" /QB REBOOT=REALLYSUPPRESS ADDLOCAL=ALL SQLBROWSERACCOUNT="NT AUTHORITYSYSTEM" SQLBROWSERPASSWORD= SQLACCOUNT="NT AUTHORITYSYSTEM" SQLPASSWORD= AGTACCOUNT="NT AUTHORITYSYSTEM" AGTACCOUNT= SECURITYMODE=SQL INSTANCENAME=KBMSS SAPWD=kbmsa DISABLENETWORKPROTOCOLS=0 SQLAUTOSTART=1 SCCCHECKLEVEL=IncompatibleComponents:1 ERRORREPORTING=2
Anyone else run into this?
Thanks,

Hi, I hope you can help.I have configured a Windows 2003 web server and SQL 2005 Server (on same box) to successfully allow remote connections and to allow access via SQL Server Management Studio Express 2005.The problem I have is that I want to restrict access to the databases on the server via the Management Studio to specific databases e.g. 1 database user "sees" only 1 database.I can configure it so that the user's remote access permissions do not allow access to other databases but they can still "see" the database listed in the Management Studio explorer.I can also configure it so that the users cannot see all the databases (by disabling View All Databases on SQL Server), but this means that they cannot not see their own database which they have permissions for.Is it impossible to have the desired behaviour of only displaying the database which the remote user accessing has permissions for and hiding all other databases?I have MSN'd,Googled and Yahoo'd this one to no avail :(Many thanksFergus

I am upgrading my application's SQL Server from 2008 R2 to 2012.
As discussed in the below URL I am able to see the Identity jump after I upgrade and the server is restarted.
Now since I cannot afford this and at this moment I do not have the time to create a sequence with NOCACHE and test it again I have to go ahead and add trace flag 272 in the start up parameter as this is the only solution which I can implement and even rollback without much hassles.
[URL] ....
What I got to know, this flag will disable the new feature of IDENTITY property that has been implemented as part of SQL Server 2012 and will make it work like it was doing in SQL Server 2008 R2.
But I want to know implementing this flag would impact any other feature or performance (except the performance of IDENTITY) of SQL Server.

I have to disable newly implemented database encryption. It's a necessity unfortunately. Can I do this during production hours without much of a hit? I know I have to restart the instance after it's done. Can I expect performance impacts or other issues?

We are looking at going down the High Availability Always On route. However we have some concerns around the lack of support for MSDTC. In short we are concerned that developers may introduce functionality either on purpose or by mistake that uses the or escalates the Query’s to the MSTDTC. As this could result in database splitting.
Understand that this will be a moot point in SQL 2016 but for 20122014 is it possible to disable the MSDTC to protect against this and run High Availability Always On. ? Does it just need to be disabled on the SQL Server or does it need to be done on the application server ?

Hi all, i hope you can help me.
Basically a dts package has been setup that pulls in data from another companies server, this data requires to be on-demand i.e individual users can pull in updates of the data when they require it.
I am using xp_cmdshell and dtsrun to pull in the data. This obviouly works fine for me as i am a member of sysadmin.
Books online quotes " SQL Server Agent proxy accounts allow SQL Server users who do not belong to the sysadmin fixed server role to execute xp_cmdshell"
So i went to the SQL Server Agent Properties 'Job System' tab and unchecked 'Non-sysadmin job step proxy account' and entered a proxy account.
The proxy account has been setup as a Windows user with local administrator privilages and even a member of the sysadmin server role - just in case.
Now when i log onto the db with my test account - a non-sysadmin - and attempt to run the stored proc to import the data i recieved the message 'EXECUTE permission denied on object 'xp_cmdshell', database 'master', owner 'dbo' '
hmm... so basically i have either misunderstood BoL or there is something not quite right in my setup.
I have search the net for a few days now and yet i can find no solution.
Can anyone help?

Hi there,BOL notes that in order for replication agents to run properly, theSQLServerAgent must run as a domain account which has privledges to loginto the other machines involved in replication (under "SecurityConsiderations" and elsewhere). This makes sense; however, I waswondering if there were any repercussions to using duplicate localaccounts to establish replication where a domain was not available.Anotherwords, create a local windows account "johndoe" on both machines(with the same password), grant that account access to SQL Server onboth machines, and then have SQL Server Agent run as "johndoe" on bothmachines. I do not feel this is an ideal solution but I havecircumstances under which I may not have a domain available; mypreliminary tests seem to work.Also, are there any similar considerations regarding the MSSQLSERVERservice, or can I always leave that as local system?Dave

I have a situation that I have discovered in our QA database that I need to resolve. When I looked at the Activity Monitor for our server, I discovered that a process is running under a domain user account for one of our .Net applications. The problem is that that domain user account has not been created as a SQL login account on the server. I am trying to figure out how someone can log in to the database server with a domain user account that has not been added to SQL Server as a login account.
Does anyone have any insight on this? I don't like the idea of someone being able to create domain account that can access the database without me granting them specific access.

Please help if you can! I have setup a job that runs every day on an hourly basis. Every morning I find that it's been disabled. The funny thing is is that the schedule is disabled, but the job is not (you see 'Enabled' in the jobs list in EM, but when you view the schedules tab, it's disabled.) Also, it runs a several times before becoming disabled.
TIA,

I have a server that was being used for logshipping and had
replication set up at some point as well. One of the databases got out
of sync in the logshipping process so I removed logshipping and was
going to reinitialize the database and set up the logshipping again.
The database is in read only mode and when I try to take it out of
read only I get the following message:
Error 5063: Database 'XXXXXXXX' is in warm standby. A warm stanby
database is read-only. ALTER DATABASE statment failed. sp_dboption
command failed.
I have tried to disable replication on the server but get the
following error message:
SQL Server Enterprise Manager could not disable 'SRVXXXX' as a
publisher.
Error 3906: Could not run BEGIN TRANSACTION in database 'XXXXXXX'
because the database is read only.
So my problem is that I can't take the database out of read-only mode
because of replication and I can't disable replication because the
database is in read-only mode.
Has anyone come across this before and how should I resolve it? I
tried dropping the database as well and that didn't work either.
Any ideas or help would be greatly appreciated.
Thanks in advance,
Brad
