  • Can you use another user who can log in, and if you look in the SQL logs there should be entries in here to do with the failed login that will provide more information. Can you post them here.

    Well this another downer...the current user im using, my colleague user, don't have permission to see the SQL Logs :w00t:

    "The user does not have permission to perform this action."

  • You may have a user in this database, but do you have a login to the SQL Server? You'll find that in SSMS under <<instance>>...Security...Logins. If you don't have permission to see this, your DBA should be able to help you with it.

  • your login may not be mapped to the user account. Have you switched servers lately?

    Good point about the login-user map.

    Also, is the user on the same domain as the SQL Server? From what I can see, the login ends in -C and the server is on EURO.

    Nah since im here, at the office.

    Same server, different day.

    I still trying to figure that out to, although it says "something-C\U990220" i log with windows login so its "Euro\U990220"
