I am trying to grant a domain user to SQL Server 2008. This user should be able to login to the DB using server management studio, and run PowerShell scripts doing SELECT queries to a database. My problem is my settings does not persist.
In server management studio, I right click on Security->Logins->right click on ->Properties->User mappings-> tick my database which happens to be the first one, granted 'db_datareader' and 'public'.Click OK.
No error pops up.But when I check the user mappings again, my database is no longer ticked! What have I missed? Really puzzled... must be something very simple...
--update--:
soved: deleted the login+user, added them back,and the rest.. now ok. many thx!
