Description:

When trying to restore a backup into an Application Suite 2017.Winter.1 or newer, the operation could fail.

Logs contained in BillyBlues.Core.Wizard folder show the following error:

System.Data.SqlClient.SqlException : The EXECUTE permission was denied on the object 'sp_detach_db', database 'mssqlsystemresource', schema 'sys'.

Cause:

This error happens because the user used to connect to SQL Server is missing a required permission, i.e. the permission to execute the sp_detach_db stored procedure.

Since SQL Server 2008 this permission is granted by default (on a fresh install) to every user that can connect to the SQL Server instance, but earlier versions could have different default values (and upgrading an older version of SQL Server to a newer one keeps the old default settings).

To verify that the user has this permission you can log into SQL Server with that same user and run this script:

SELECT 
    'Can execute ''sp_detach_db''' AS [Requirement],
    CASE WHEN HAS_PERMS_BY_NAME('sp_detach_db', 'OBJECT', 'EXECUTE') = 1 THEN 'OK' ELSE 'MISSING' END AS [Status]

Solution:

Grant the user the permission to execute the sp_detach_db stored procedure.

As an example you can run the following script as a SQL administrator, and replacing imagicleUser with the actual username:

USE [master]
CREATE USER [imagicleUser] FOR LOGIN [imagicleUser]
GRANT EXECUTE ON sp_detach_db TO [imagicleUser]
