MS OLE DB Provider for SQL Server Error: Invalid authorization specification
This is a basic 3-tier system, front end, data broker, database. The front
end software is written in VB 6. There are many front end users. This
error is coming up on one computer only. No users can access the database
through the software from this machine. But, all users can access the
database through the software from all other machines. This machine is WinXP.
Any ideas where to look? The software and connection code is the same on
all machines. What could have changed on this one machine (because it did
work before) that would cause only it to stop working properly?
Thanks.
Does your application use a DSN to connect to SQL Server? If so ensure this
DSN is setup correctly on the client machine.
This error is similar to the "login failed for user <usr>" Thus you should
troubleshoot it similarly. For instrance, try connecting from this client
using both SQL and NT authentication. To simplify troubleshooting, try
taking your application out of the picture by testing UDL file connections
and from odbc administrator(test dsn). Is the same error displayed when
testing connectivity using these client tools?
