Failure to execute msdb.dbo.sp_send_dbmail

Question

I am getting this error:

Msg 229, Level 14, State 5, Procedure sp_send_dbmail, Line 1
The EXECUTE permission was denied on the object \'sp_send_dbma

Answer 1

Found nice and easy fix that worked for me here:

If your SQL applications can’t send email using database mail (I assume you already have DBMail Account and Profile setup), there are two things to set:

1. SQL MANAGEMENT STUDIO > MANAGEMENT > DATABASE MAIL > right click and select CONFIGURE… > select MANAGE PROFILE SECURITY > SQL MANAGEMENT
2. put a check on PUBLIC option
3. click on DEFAULT PROFILE and set it to YES
4. STUDIO > DATABASES > SYSTEM DATABASES > right click on MSDB and select NEW QUERY > then enter > grant execute on sp_send_dbmail to public and click OK
