CREATE SCHEMA without permission in SQL Server

Question

I created a new schema in SQL Server using

CREATE SCHEMA testschema

I checked database_principals table using

 select * from mssql.sys.database_principals;

I did not find any entry for testschema.

Did I miss something?

I am able to access tables in the dbo schema. I want to create testschema with same privilege as dbo .

Connection String for JDBC :

jdbc:sqlserver://192.xxx.xxx.xxx:1433;databaseName=BCHN

Answer 1

IIRC up to SQL Server 2000 schemas and principals were not distinguished. If you work on 2005 or higher, the new schema should display with the statement

select * from sys.schemas

Answer 2

CREATE SCHEMA does not create database principal.

SELECT * FROM sys.schemas
    WHERE
        name = 'testschema'

As you can see: principal_id = 1 (dbo)

It must be possible to access objects in your schema with [schema_name].[object_name]
