CREATE DATABASE permission denied in database 'master'.
Hi,

I am trying to set-up the free edition on my Windows XP System using the .NET 2.0 Framework. I am getting this error at the database set-up step 2 screen:

An error occured when creating database: [DataConnection.ExecuteQuery]: Query: CREATE DATABASE [KenticoCMS] COLLATE SQL_Latin1_General_CP1_CI_AS: caused exception: CREATE DATABASE permission denied in database 'master'.
Creating a new database KenticoCMS

I am not allowed to advance. Does anyone know how to fix this?

Hi Joe,

It seems that the user account you have specified in the first step does not have sufficient rights on the SQL server to create and manage database. Could you please check the user permissions?

Best Regards,
Juraj Ondrus
