Select Database:

 

I don't understand why my login keeps failing.

4.5.1 is running on an IIS Server called Total

SQL 2005 is on a server called aop1

The name of the database is TotalWeb

I created a user in the database with an ID of DNNuker

I associated that with a domain user DotNetNuker

I gave DNNuker db_owner for the schema and the role membership

I gave DotNetNuker NTFS permissions to the website folders (as well as Network Service)

I specified DotNetNuker's password in the wizard

I've tried all combinations of check boxes

I've no hair left to pull out


Server: Enter the Name or IP Address of the computer where the Database is located. (if using Oracle enter the Data Source (SID))
Database: Enter the Database name
Integrated Security: Check this if you are using SQL Server's Integrated Security, which means you will be using your Windows account to access SQL Server. If you are using SQL Server Express then you will most likely need to check this option. If you have been given a UserId/Password to access your Database, leave this unchecked, and provide the UserId/Password combination.
User ID: Enter the UserID for the Database
Password: Enter the Password for the Database
Run as db Owner: Check this if you are running the database as Database Owner - if left unchecked you will be running as the User ID specified
Object Qualifier: Enter an optional "prefix" to use for all your database objects - this helps ensure that there are no object name clashes.

Connection Error(s):
Index #: 0
Source: .Net SqlClient Data Provider
Class: 14
Number: 18456
Message: Login failed for user 'DNNuker'.

I'm not sure if you need the domain user association. But did you define a password for your SQL user? I'm assuming you left it out of the above form because you didn't want the world to see it, or did you just not type it in?

Can you open up a query analyzer window and connect to the DB with the information for the user you created?

The password I used was for the domain user. Is there a separate password for the SQL user? I don't see one. 

When I copied the table from the wizard, the ****** from the password pasted as blank into the post below.

I don't know where to find a query analyzer window in SQL 2005 Management Studio or how to otherwise test the connection.

I would recommend just setting up a SQL user that isn't actually a domain account. Assign that user a username/password and make the user have the db_owner role for that database. That's what I always setup.

I appreciate your help with this, believe me, but I just don't know how to do that.

The SQL Server is running on a domain controller (SBS 2003 R2 Premium), so there aren't local user accounts.

For my database, when I go to Create New User ... it requires a SQL User ID and an account from the domain... or am I missing some important concept? Is there a place in the Management Studio to specify a password for the SQL User ID? I don't see it in the user properties anywhere.

This has got to be something simple, I'm overlooking.
