LaserRepository configuration error - Your Windows account lacks sufficient rights to Sql Server

asked on October 12, 2017

Error:

Your Windows account lacks sufficient rights to Sql Server 'laserfiche\sqlexpress'. [LFF14-WindowsAccountUnabletoAuthenticateToSQL]

I am getting this error in Forms configuration when trying to save the forms database config and don't know how to fix it.

Forms v 10.2

SQL Server Express 2014

1) Forms routing service login changed from Local system to my admin account and service was restarted. Still get the error.

2)Changed login using SQL authentication and still get error.

3) I can login to SQL Express no problem.

 

Suggestions???

Is it for a new Forms install, or are you connecting to an already existing Forms database?

It is possible to log into a database and do queries, but still not have enough rights to connect to the forms database with Forms Routing Service. Did you look at the database properties and view the effective rights? 

I'd recommend you create a database or domain account specifically for Forms instead of using your admin account. If you're just using that account to troubleshoot, I'd recommend you try the sa account. 

I've been hunting around for the minimum permissions needed by the accounts running the various Laserfiche services for a few weeks, and I cannot find them. It would be nice if Laserfiche included those in the release notes for the different products.

That's a good thing. You don't want to use the sa account except for setup and troubleshooting. It implies that someone locked that server down, so there's a good chance your admin account doesn't have full rights to the SQL server.

Hi all,

 

I have the same problem and idk how to resolve this.

I downloaded SQL Server Management Studio but I don't remember the password. This is a new computer with news installs so if I need to reset all this is not a problem.

 

What do you suggest to me?

This is not the best place to troubleshoot SQL security, a Microsoft forum might be more appropriate. If you don't have Windows authentication enabled for it, then reinstalling it might reset it.

Thank you Miruna. I'm going to search on the Microsoft forum.

You need to set the app pool identity to your AD account.
