Situation Description

SharePoint database login failed.

 

Suggested Actions



Problem Description:

Login to SharePoint database failed.

Possible Cause(s):

  1. The user name or password for the service account was invalid before the session or became invalid during the session.
  2. The password for the service account changes.
  3. If the user name was changed in Internet Information Services (IIS) Manager or Service Control Manager after being configured for Windows SharePoint Services (or SharePoint Foundation for SharePoint Server 2010).
Advice:
  1. Use the Service Accounts page in Central Administration or the stadm.exe utility to verify that the correct user name and password are configured for the service account.
Note: The administrator configures specific user name and password or a predefined system account, such as Local System or Network Service, when Windows SharePoint Services (or SharePoint Foundation for SharePoint Server 2010)is installed. Windows SharePoint Services (or SharePoint Foundation for SharePoint Server 2010) uses that account for communicating with the database. This is referred to as the service account that SharePoint runs as.
