I create a database using ADO.NET SQL queries like this:
create database mydatabase
create login 'loginname' with password='somepassword'
create user 'username' for login loginname
The queries aren’t exact, I’ve typed them as far as I could remember them.
After that I don’t see the database in my ms sql server 2008 r2 express management studio.
I also can’t log in with the newly created login. The “enable server authentication” is set to true.
What should I do to see that database in the manager?
Why can’t I log in with newly created login? I’ve looked into the logs and it says that the password is incorrect.
I do have 2 sql express instances, but I use the same one when I run my sql
select @@servername when run in management studio returns “BOGDAN”.
ADO.NET query returns “BOGDAN\BBF17ECB-69FF-4B” . Code is below:
SqlConnection con = new SqlConnection(“Data Source=BOGDAN;Integrated Security=True;User Instance=True”);
SqlCommand cmd = new SqlCommand(“select @@servername”, con);
con.Open();
string s = (string)cmd.ExecuteScalar();
Console.WriteLine(“Server name:” + s);
con.Close();
Console.ReadKey(false);
Don’t know where BBF17ECB-69FF-4B came from, I explicitly stated server name as “BOGDAN”.
the script is:
IF DB_ID(‘MyDatabase’) IS NULL CREATE DATABASE [MyDatabase]
USE MyDatabase
IF NOT EXISTS(SELECT * FROM master.dbo.syslogins WHERE loginname = ‘AUsername’) CREATE LOGIN AUsername WITH PASSWORD=’APassword’
IF NOT EXISTS (SELECT * FROM sys.sysusers WHERE name=’AUsername’) CREATE USER AUsername FOR LOGIN AUsername
EXEC sp_addrolemember N’db_owner’, N’AUsername’
The problem was with the connection string: I had to remove “User Instance=true” from it. That fixed the problem!
I thought the problem was with how I configurated the servers or with the SQL requests.
