I have a user that created a username that was quite long. 22 characters included spaces between 3 names. She is unable to "log in" it keeps refusing her login. I have tried to "reset" the password, but this proved unsuccesful. I am using mixed authentication with Windows and SQL 2005 Express, I created a "test" user account and the login works fine. Is there a limitiation for the lenght a username can be? Or any other suggestion as to why it will not work? Thanks in advance for any assistance.
1) why did you reset the password if you believed it was a problem with the username ? 2) yes there is a length limitation, however it won't let you enter a username that is too long. 3) your sql authentication method bares no relevance to forum usernames/passwords 4) have you checked in your db to make sure the username she thinks she registered is in fact the one in the database ?
