Change the job owner to sa. Or to an account with sufficient permissions. |

Hi Russel Thanks for the info but where exactly can I do this? I am not the person who normally handles this server. I did think it was a permissions issue and did give permissions to the share already. How do I change the job owner?Thanks again.cheryl callahan |

In Management Studio, expand the SQL Server Agent node, then jobs. Double-click the job. In the properties tab (opens by default) change the owner. |

Thanks so much for your help. I did this but it wouldn't change the ownership so I logged into the built-in admin account and realized that someone had change the admin built-in account name and that someone had created the jobs for backup as the old account login. The backup then worked after I changed the name back to the default. What I don't understand is why as I thought all objects had a GUID or UUID. I would think that even when renamed an object would still show that GUID number and the system would know what the object (the user name) was?cheryl callahan |
