Please resolve error message "Not a valid login"

  • I am trying to add a new user to an SQL Server 2012 database using SQL Server Management Studio. I right-click and select 'Add User' under Security -> Users, fill out the user information, and click OK. Management Studio throws the the error message "is not a valid login or you do not have permission”.

    How can I add this user?

    Quick thought, try starting SSMS by using "Run as Administrator"
