At work I have a Windows logon account called username 'bullwinkle' and a password called 'moose'
The IT dept has set up a new machine for me so I can setup IIS with a virtual server to an application I wrote that collects data. The application works 100% fine on my development machine. On the new machine it works great up until the point at the end where I have to connect to the SQL db for writing the data.... then I get the following error:
"Login failed for user ''. The user is not associated with a trusted SQL Server connection."
***I would like to emphasize the fact that:
1) there is no username that shows up in the error... only an empty set of commas ' '
2) SQL server is already set to 'mixed' mode
The IT SQL Server guy gave me the user name and password that allow writing and reading from the SQL database for the application I wrote. The username and password he gave me for this is username 'batman' and the password is called 'robin'. However, there is no account on the new machine for 'batman' to logon with.... only my 'bullwinkle' user account will allow me to logon.
I told the IT guy that the new machine needed an account setup for 'batman' and the pasword setup to 'robin' .... this will allow me to use the Windows logon account of 'batman' and password 'robin'. Having IIS set to use Windows logon will then fall back on this 'batman' account----which is the same account and password that is set up with permission to access the SQL Server dbase.
At the moment, the error occurs when I am logged in with my 'bullwinkle' account----but the SQL Server permission to write-read from the database is only authorized for the 'batman' account---which doesn't exist on the new machine.
Am I correct about insisting there has to be a 'batman' account in order to have an existing Windows logon account that will also have permission to write-read to the SQL Server?
Help. ..... many thanks.
