SQL Server 2000, running fine having just upgraded from 6.5. Trying to apply SP3 and it asks me for sa password, but no matter what I type in (and I'm typing in the valid password) it refuses to accept it? Is there some low-level metabase password that has changed, or something?
 
Hi.

If you use the Query Analyser and logon to the server using the SA account, you can test your password.
Remember it is case sensitive!

Good luck,

Nils Bevaart
