With SQL Express 2012 SP2 on my Win7 laptop,I created a new SQL user "Sara", granted her control server access, set the server to allow SQL logins, and quit SSMS. I re-opened SSMS, logged in as Sara, and created a new database called dbSara. I then tried to drop dbSara, and got Fatal Error 615.
Technet shows #615 is "Could not find database table ID %d, name '%.*ls'."
Symbol Meaning %d, %ld, or %D Decimal integer %x Hexadecimal number %ls or %.*ls Character string
The funny thing is this is an empty db with no tables. I can drop it just fine when I'm logged in as a Windows user.
Sara is the db owner. When I look under login properties, she has 'public' server role checked off only. Under Securables, there are two entries (rows) for Connect SQL and Control server. Is this normal?
Sara has Connect SQL and Control Server granted, for the 2nd row of each. My login (sa) has the 2nd row of Connect SQL checked, for what that's worth <shrug>.
I'm stumped. It's frustrating when you get stuck in a tutorial! Any ideas? Thank you very much for help & guidance.
