We have Maintenance jobs being created by individual user and under this user in the SQL Server Agent we have ran till otherday. What happened when we tried to execute the job then came out with error saying USER does not posses Server Access.

Under the security - logins- no individual user exists prior and now but till otherday it executed but when I changed to 'sa' then it ran.

Can anyone let me know as why this happened. Thanks all.

Thanks for the reply.

The User is existing, what I could not understand is that when I execute other jobs in the SQL Server Agent I could succeed but this particular user when executed system retorts as User has got no server access, but the same user (still Exists) in the previous occasion got executed. Then I happen to change the user to ‘sa’ then all ok.
The question is when the same user got executed in the last occasion but not now until I changed to ‘sa’. What are the possibilities this user is not been given the server accessibility?

Can you please explain this to me.

make sure user account is not locked out, or denied access
