SEC 5.5.1 launch error : The user "domain\account" is not assigned to any subestates.

Mihai Sandu

Hello, 

When I try to launch the SEC I get the "subestates" error message.

My domain account is a member of the Sophos Full Administrators local group.

I have looked around the dbo.UserSubEstates, dbo.Users, dbo.SubEstates......and it should all be good. 

It seems that no matter what i change /modify ....the error message wont go away. ( i have created a "test" subestate in the database...mapped my account to it....still same error).

 

Does anyone have an idea on what the next step would be ? I need to get this fixed and launch this console.

 

Thank you.

    Hello Mihai Sandu,

    you can't launch the console at all? The local console on the management server? How did you create a "test" subestate?

    Hello, 

     


    When I launch the console it gives me  the subestates error message. Initially i was on a setup where I had a SQL server with only the DB component installed and another Admin server with the Console and Management server .

    I have since then installed all 3 componenets on the database server just to test if it will work....same error message.

    The "test" subestate was created from the sql manager adding a row to the dbo.subestates table that contained just the "default" subestate .

    Hello Mihai,

    neither setup worked ... or? Do I understand correctly that you did an install with a remote database, you couldn't open then console. Then you installed all components on the database server - same results? And with this user you've also installed SEC?

    I encountered this error after a migration ... can't remember what went wrong and how I corrected it.

    Hello, 

     

     

    Setup worked with the same account ( which is domain account admin and also Sql db owner /admin etc) . It is after the setup, when launching the console that I get the error.

     

    It's a long story. We were in version 5.4.1 and for some time everything was OK. Then all of a sudden we started getting this "user not assigned to subestates" error message. Not managing to solve it I have thought that upgrading to 5.5.1 could help...I was wron...even after the upgrade , when launching the console....I get the same error message.

    Since then I have completely removed Sophos on both the Admin and SQL server ( even deleting the Sophos DB) .....reinstalled in 5.5.1...only the end up with the same error message in the end....which is a bit frustrating I must admit. 

    I have run out of ideas or things to try.
