database owner option for sql srever 2005

  • I got an issue occured with my prod systems. I tried to open the properties of a database which gives error

    "Cannot show requested dialog.

    Additional information:

    Cannot show requested dialog.(SqlMgmt)

    Property Owner is not available for Database'[XXXX]'. This property may not exist for this

    object, or may not be retrievable due to insufficient access rights. (Microsoft.SqlServer.Smo)"

    As i knew this situatioin that Database owner property might not set and might showing "null" value.

    I changed the owener to 'sa' using sp_changedbowner . After that there some issue occurs with app team.

    At this moment i need some logs if available that what was the privious value of owner before i executed sp_changedbowner. Is there anywhere Database owner log is logged in sql server 2005.

    PLz help me in this regard . Thanks in advance

    I don't think that causes issues with the app. You can check it using your latest backup.

    But why do you want to change it back ? That may again cause your previous issues.

    Better thing is to investigate what's causing the actual issue instead of reverting it back.

    sys.databases contains the owner of the db. That view is stored in the master db. If you have a backup of the master db from before you changed the user db owner, you can restore the master db to a different name and list who the owner was before.

    Something like this:

    RESTORE DATABASE master__restore

    FROM DISK = '...\master.bak'

    WITH MOVE '...' TO '...', MOVE ...

    This typically happens when an account is set as the database owner and at some point afterwards the account is dropped from the server. Issues such as this can also occur when a user has a default database set and the database is then dropped, the user receives a login error.
