Biswa writes "I used the following at command line to start and connect SQL Profiler at a remote server;

profiler.exe /Sservername /Ddatabase /Usa /Psapassword

The profiler started and connected perfectly.

But when I used the same line inside a batch file and tried to run the batch file, it could not connect and the error message said "Login failed for user 'sa'".

For your information, I used all the environments identical for both the tests.

Is it a bug in SQL Server 2000 ?

I have SP3 applied to my server.

Thanks"

1) The password may be different of that server. Are you sure it's the same server you tested against?
2) Are you sure you don't want to specify a template? You could get quite a bit of useless data back...
3) I'm not sure you need to type ".exe". The extention should not be needed.
4) Try using "/E" instead of "/U" + "/P". Using "/E" will make sure that no passwords are saved to that plain text batch file of yours.
