tom.peters Posted March 17, 2011 Report Share Posted March 17, 2011 Good Day - I am currently getting setup to run Plastic over SQL Server 2008. I am hitting an odd error when I try to create a Repository through the Plastic client: Server <MyServerName>:8084 wasn't able to open a connection to the database. Check the server's log So, I checked the server's log. Here are the errors: 03/17/2011 08:52:33,Logon,Unknown,Login failed for user 'NT AUTHORITY\SYSTEM'. Reason: Failed to open the explicitly specified database. 03/17/2011 08:52:33,Logon,Unknown,Error: 18456<c/> Severity: 14<c/> State: 38. 03/17/2011 08:48:29,Logon,Unknown,Login failed for user 'NT AUTHORITY\SYSTEM'. Reason: Failed to open the explicitly specified database. 03/17/2011 08:48:29,Logon,Unknown,Error: 18456<c/> Severity: 14<c/> State: 38. 03/17/2011 08:48:29,spid59,Unknown,CREATE FILE encountered operating system error 5(Access is denied.) while attempting to open or create the physical file 'C:\Program Files\PlasticSCM\server\repositories.plastic'. It looks, to me, like Plastic is trying to create the repository on the C: drive even though the instance's ROOT is on the G: drive. I went in through SQL Server 2008 Management Studio and created a junk DB just to see where SQL Server would put it and it did create the files in the root directory on G as expected. Just so you know, I do log in as an ADMIN, both on the box itself and in SQL Server. I am using user/password security for the Plastic server. Are there any additional settings I need in the db.conf or elsewhere? Thanks, Tom Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
tom.peters Posted March 17, 2011 Author Report Share Posted March 17, 2011 Good news, everyone! I reinstalled the SQL Server instance and now all is well... I don't know what I did different, but it works now. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
