Hi AlBer,

You can check the users of a database in SQL Server Management Studio (SSMS) under DB_Name > Security > Users as in the picture below.

You can then right-click on the innovator user if it exists and select Properties. From this window, you can check if this user is the db_owner under the Membership panel.

Could you let us know the source of this existing database? Was it created during a previous Aras Innovator installation?
