I am getting started with database development (goal is azure, getting there…). I followed this guide to get started with Azure development.

I have successfully:

  • created a website in VS2012
  • installed azure SDK for .NET
  • installed entity framework (EF6alpha) via NuGet
  • wrote my first database entities.

When I execute “update-database -ProjectName Models” I receive the error that I lack priveleges (CREATE DATABASE permission denied in database ‘master’).

After a while I read a thread that this might have something to do with privileges. So I tried to run VS as administrator and voila, the database + tables were generated. (maybe that bit might help others looking for a solution for this issue).

But now, back in my development account I still am not allowed to update the database. How can I tackle this problem?

    That wasn’t too hard after all.

    • start MS SQL Server Management Studio (as administrator)
    • open the database you’d like to join
    • open the security map
    • right click users => add user.
    • in the dialog, select windows user and fill in the login name.

    done.
