Seshagiri Rao Vadrevu 101

hi all,

iv tried to give access to a specific db for a user, via gui ( instance -> security -> logins -> user -> right click properties -> user mapping )

where I'm checking map -> and gave access as a DB writer and clicked ok

the task executed successfully but when I check the user there is DB writer permission but the map is getting un-checked automatically

can anyone help me fix this

Hi @Seshagiri Rao Vadrevu ,

the task executed successfully but when I check the user there is DB writer permission but the map is getting un-checked automatically

Did you restart SSMS and try again? What‘s your version?
Does your user actually have permission to write?

it's a remote desktop connection, iv restarted ssms multiple times and the user actually db reader writer and public access checked.. when I check the map box next to that database name which that user has access to, and click ok.. it is executing it but. when you open user properties again it appears unchecked user map.. but when you select that DB .. the user still has DB reader, writer, and public boxes ticked but the map checkbox keeps unchecking, no matter how many times you try

Hi @Seshagiri Rao Vadrevu ,
Run select @@VERSION to check the version
IIf it is not the latest version, I recommend you to update it.

I have run into this same issue. We made sure we are running the most recent version, have even rebooted the machine. We are assigning group rights to a database. We grant them rights to the database, add datareader and datawriter. Runs OK, but when we go back in, the database is unchecked. If we select the database though (click the name, not the checkbox) , we can see that datareader and datawriter are enabled. I will say that this group is from a different domain than what the server is on. We have granted rights to other databases on this server though without any issues.

Hi @Schellhammer, Michael ,

So it is not SSMS issue.
Alternatively, you can also create a new Login user.
