Can we chage Sa password ??

  • Hi,

    We had a sql server 2005,installed using sa many yaers ago. But, now no one in the company know the SA password. So I went to management studio and changed the Sa password

    The report server cannot open a connection to the report server database. A connection to the database is required for all requests and processing. (rsReportServerDatabaseUnavailable) Get Online Help

    Login failed for user 'sa'.

  • If SQL Server is using Mixmode authentication. One can use windows Administrator to login and change sa password.

  • Have u changed it on other side in connection string which is trying to connect to database

    Thanks

  • Agreed - if you change it at the server you also need to change the connection strings!

    That said, once you do resolve your sa password issues, I would recommend that you review all connectivity and ensure that no person or application uses the sa login.
