Error copying sql permissions with Copy-DbaLogin when the database user and server user does not match. about dbatools

[HCRitter]

Hi,

as far as I´ve checked, the ENUM in $DestServer, later in the script: [Microsoft.SqlServer.Management.Smo.SqlServerVersion]::$scriptVersion is not a correct field in the SMO!

Namespace:
[Microsoft.SqlServer.Management.Smo]
Assembly:
Microsoft.SqlServer.Smo.dll
Package:
Microsoft.SqlServer.SqlManagementObjects v160.2004021.0
(https://learn.microsoft.com/en-us/dotnet/api/microsoft.sqlserver.management.smo?view=sql-smo-160)

So it's not caused by DBATools, more it's that the [Microsoft.SqlServer.Management.Smo] is outdated in version 160 for that ENUM.

Ok, how would I fix that then?

The main issue really for this ticket is the Login Names must match between Server and Database.

I can reproduce the issue, will try to provide a fix...

If name of user and login match, there is not error, but the new user is added and the old user is still present in the database. I think the old user should be dropped. Or am I wrong?
