DCA complains about missing priviledges when selecting a database when SQL authentication is being used Our current findings show that this issue is caused by the fact that the DCA now always verifies if the MCMS system account has db_datareader, db_datawriter and db_ddladmin priviledges on the SQL server – even if SQL authentication is used.
