POS will not connect to db using a standard user account

Posted on by eBank 84

Under an administrator account, the database connects just fine on the same machine.  I've tried running as administrator and that doesn't change the results.  Possible corrupt profile?

I have the registry set for Users = Full Control.

Haven't ran into this before.

Thanks!

    Hi eBank,

    Can you please let me know where you are trying to connect to the database; and what error you are seeing when trying to connect?

    This is less than 9 months from now; and you can continue using RMS after this date but technical support will not be available.

    I would recommend checking with your partner in regard to what they may recommend as a replacement system after the extended support end date.


    Thank you in advance.
