Description

An error is received while attempting to create the SCRIBEINTERNAL database: "Error Opening data source OleDBAdapter.Database (ScribeInternal_MS1) Error 104".

The above error is thrown because the database creation process was unable to create the SQL Server user SCRIBE. During the creation process the SQL user is supposed to be created and assigned a default password "integr8!". A common reason that the SCRIBE user was unable to be created is the default password did not meet the requirements of the password enforcement policy in place on the SQL Server.
