Last week I created a ASP.NET Web Application project on my machine. It was connecting to a SQL server database file for testing. The database was created in the server explorer part of visual studio and it created a database file with all of the information within it. I was using windows authentication to connect to the database.
Recently my computer has been migrated onto a new netowrk within my company. Now I no longer have access to the database file. The error I am getting is Login failed for user "DOMAIN/USER". I guess this is because the Domain has changed and my computer and the database server are in different domains. However I do not have access to the old domain to add a new login or user with priveladges to access the database.
How can i get arround this?
You cannot get around this, unless an admin is willing to give you a copy of the files from the old drive.
So, you must re-create your database.
Fortunately, if you took proper precautions, this will be easy.
Option 1: If your database is under source control, simply checkout the latest good version of the database.
Option 2: Load the latest backup of the database.
