Login Failures

  • Login failed for user domainaccount: [Client:<named pipe>]

    Error: 18456, severity: 14, State: 16. This login has sysadmin permissions.

    This is using builtin account (Network Service). This is 2005 SQL Server

  • i think State 16 means the default database assigned to the login does not exist. it might have been dropped or renamed.

    change the default database of the login in question to master, and it should be all set.

  • I see the default db is already Master.

    is this possible to have link with protocols?

  • If your database is not in single user mode or Auto_close, Have you tried using TCP? Did you notice any handshake error ?

  • Does enabling the TCP\IP protocal requires restarting the sql server

  • Yes, it does required

  • Thanks
