I have mirroring configured (with a witness server) on a database that is
being used by an ASP.NET application. The app uses SQL Authentication, and
the conneciton string includes the Failover Partner statement.
Whenever the database fails over, the app throws the following error: Cannot
open database 'mydb' requested by the login. The login failed. Login failed
for user 'myuser'.
Running EXEC sp_change_users_login 'Update_One', 'myuser', 'myuser' fixes
the problem, but only until I fail back over the the primary database, then
I
have to run the script again. Every time I fail over (in either direction),
the sp_change_users_login needs to be run again before apps connection using
SQL Authentication will work.
Auto failover with mirroring, isn't really auto failover if I have to run
this script every time.
1) Is there a way to insert a custom script into the autofailover process?
2) Do I need to convert all applications using this db to use Windows Auth
only?
3) Are there any other solutions to this problem?Drop the [SQL] logins on your mirror.
When you run the CREATE LOGIN script on that server to create the logins,
make sure that you specify the SID of that particular user that is within
the primary server.

Whenever the database fails over, the app throws the following error: Cannot
open database 'mydb' requested by the login. The login failed. Login failed
for user 'myuser'.
Running EXEC sp_change_users_login 'Update_One', 'myuser', 'myuser' fixes
the problem, but only until I fail back over the the primary database, then I
have to run the script again. Every time I fail over (in either direction),
the sp_change_users_login needs to be run again before apps connection using
SQL Authentication will work.
Auto failover with mirroring, isn't really auto failover if I have to run
this script every time.
1) Is there a way to insert a custom script into the autofailover process?
2) Do I need to convert all applications using this db to use Windows Auth
only?
3) Are there any other solutions to this problem?... the first one gave me an error. I didn't think it had gone through.|||... the first one gave me an error. I didn't think it had gone through.|||Drop the [SQL] logins on your mirror.

containing the proper SID for each login.

Mirroring - Have to run sp_change_users_login after failover
I have mirroring set up and working on a database that is used for an ASP.NET
web application. The web appliation uses SQL Authentication to connect to the
database. The mirroring is set up with a witness, and the connection string
includes "Failover Partner=myfailoverserver;".
When I'm running on the primary database, the app works great. When I do a
manual failover, the app crashes with the following error: "Cannot open
database "mydb" requested by the login. The login failed.
Login failed for user 'myuser'".
If I then run "EXEC sp_change_users_login 'Update_One', 'myuser', 'myuser';"
everything works fine again, untill I fail over back tot he primary server.
Then I have to run sp_change_users_login again.
The mirroring auto failover, isn't really auto failover if I have to
manually run this script whenever it fails over.
1) Is there a way to add to the failover script that is run whenever there
is an automatic failover?
2) Do I need to recode my app to just use windows authentication?
3) Are there any other solutions to this problem?
Drop the [SQL] logins on your mirror.
When you run the CREATE LOGIN script on that server to create the logins,
make sure that you specify the SID of that particular user that is within
the primary server.
