ASPNET can not be created in SQL Server

Post by Vulcan » Mon Feb 07, 2005 8:14 am

I've had a problem installing Vault after I had changed the computer-name. It showed an error that the ASPNET account could not be created in SQL Server when installing Vault (and would probarly also when installing Dragnet).

The installation apparently searched for the login 'newpcname\ASPNET' which it couldn't find. It then tried to create a new login 'newpcname\ASPNET' which wasn't possible because it allready existed, albeit under the name 'oldpcname\ASPNET'.

Anyway, I had to delete the ASPNET login, in order to get Vault installed.

I also had to re-assign the ASPNET account to the dragnet database in order to get that working again.

I'm aware these are difficult issued to deal with, but I reccon its worth mentioning.

Kind regards,

Actually I ran into a similar problems when I created a tool which had to create an SQL Server database and set all the security for the database. So it kinda rang a bell the second the problem arose.
