Thanks James,

I checked the thread you referred

And it is suggeing the below as a solution.

can you login into SQL management studio and then execute the command.

Also check if the SQL services are running while login?

Hi Pete,

I could login to my SQL Management studio. and i would like to know on how to perform this script what you are suggesting.

Do you have details in doing step by step?

select the SCSP database and run the query. I do not have pictures.

try symadmin

not sysadmin

ahh. yes you should be using symadmin

great find Will :-)

My bad time..It still not working even with "symadmin"

I appreciate any more help with in detail steps about performing that changes in SQL

Thanks

Start the console as administrator (??)

grasping at anything right now

Use the OSQL.exe commandline utility:

load up commandline, navigate to osql.exe and run that (just search for osql but you dont need studio installed, just the client tools.)

osql -S database\instance -U username -P password 

^ - sa credentials or your domain credentials and capital letters are important for the switches

then just copy and paste that SQL statement mentioned previously and press enter to get onto next line

then type go and press enter

That should then run the statement

I tried to run OSQL.exe  to check execute the  below

osql -S database\instance -U username -P password  - but it failed

I uninstalled DCS and deleted the users created in SQL server then reinstalled DCS - Login was not successfuly

Then we found that...in SQL we dont't see the USER NAME row under the tables..

so i created new instance in SQL for SDCSS

Uninstalled DCS server and console

Reinstalled DCS and pointed to the new instance SDCSS then it worked fine...

Thanks for all your inputs and ideas..
