SQL Express 2008 R2 - CREATE DATABASE permission denied in database 'master'

So, we have an application that we've written to leverage SQL Express 2008 R2 - which our setup installs on the command line using the following instructions:

http://msdn.microsoft.com/en-us/library/ms144259.aspx

The code that does the installation can be found here:

 

//Path to the SQL Installation files 

string strSQLPath = Application.StartupPath + "\\Install_Support_Files\\SQL_86\\Setup.exe"; 

//If we're on a 64-bit OS use the 64 bit setup

if (Wow.Is64BitOperatingSystem == true)

{

strSQLPath = Application.StartupPath + "\\Install_Support_Files\\SQL_64\\Setup.e

Hi I have migrated to a new computer using Windows 7, 6 gig memory, I7 chip (old machine had xp) and have installed Visual Studio 2008 and  SQL Server 2008 R2.  I get CREATE DATABASE permission denied in database 'master'. (Microsoft SQL Server, Error: 262) when I try to create a new database.  Other posts (example:http://social.msdn.microsoft.com/forums/en-US/sqltools/thread/28fee0ed-c7e2-40df-8f79-f513c9848f09/) work for Vista but I cannot find how to grant permissions.  Run as administrator (vista fix) does not work. I have admin privaleges on my machine.  There are no other accounts.    What do I need to do to update privaleges? Thanks and have a nice day.    

   I am using SQL express and Visual web developer on windows Vista. When I try to create a new database the following message appears.   CREATE DATABASE permission denied in database master (error 262) I log on to my computer as an administrator. Help appreciated  Prontonet      

getting this error when I try to restore a .bak database to sqlexpress:

CREATE DATABASE permission denied in database 'master'.
RESTORE HEADERONLY is terminating abnormally. (Microsoft SQL Server, Error: 262)

I login to sqlserver mgmt studio using windows authentication. Getting this permission denied error whether I login to the PC as administrator or my user account.

What do I need to do to be able to restore a database into sqlexpress?

thanks,

 

 

Hi,

I'm using Visual Studio 2005 Pro and SQLExpress that comes with it.

I have my program running fine in XP Pro OS using a window user "Glen" (Computer administrator) with Administrator rights.  This means that I installed VS 2005 using this window user "Glen"

I created another windows user "TestUser" (Limited account) in the same physical PC.

I tried to run the program and on the part that I need to access SQL table, I got the error [CREATE DATABASE permission denied in database 'master']

At the same time while using "TestUser" and running sqlcmd (to check if I can connect to SQL), I also got error HResult 0x2, Level 16, State 1.

I read alot on MSDN discussions and related links but it seems that I can't get the solution that I need.

SO HERE ARE MY QUESTIONS :

1.  Am I allowed to run my program using user "TestUser" since SQL is installed using "Glen" windows user?

2.  Do I need to add access rights to "TestUser" to allow the user to have CREATE rights? (Note : for security reason, I can add other access rights except Administrator)

Thanks in advance for all you help.

Hi, I have installed Visual Studio 2010 Express in my local system.

Steps 1. File->New Website

 2.Open datbase explorer, right click on dataconnection

 3.Select Create new connection

 4.use Microsoft SQL Server Database file

5. Type new databse filename

6. Now i want to use SQL authentication which is not working

 7.If we use windows authentication its wokring without any problem

8.But i need sql authentication to be used.

 9.I have not installed SQL studio.

 I am only using the one which is packaged in VisualStudio 2010 SQLClient. Let me know how can we create a new database file with userID and password. So that i can host it in other systems as well without any windows authentication.  I know that VS2010 setup also installs the SQL client which is requiredto create and manage sql databse files/quries etc

 

i dont know the default userID and password for SQLauthentication. As the express setup did not asked any credentials while installing SQL components

 

Thanks and regards
