Microsoft SQL Server

General Information

An overview about all SQL Server versions from 7.0 including service packs and other intermediate releases as well as download links is available at http://sqlserverbuilds.blogspot.com. The Microsoft SQL Server is required for the CoPlanner Server.

Enable xp_cmdshell

The Windows process spawned by xp_cmdshell has the same security rights as the SQL Server service account.

When it is called by a user that is not a member of the sysadmin fixed server role, xp_cmdshell connects to Windows by using the account name and password stored in the credential named ##xp_cmdshell_proxy_account##. If this proxy credential does not exist, xp_cmdshell will fail.

The proxy account credential can be created by executing sp_xp_cmdshell_proxy_account:

EXEC sp_xp_cmdshell_proxy_account 'DOMAIN\UserName','password'

This user must have the rights for executing xp_cmdshell:

 GRANT EXECUTE on xp_cmdshell to [DOMAIN\UserName]
