shouldn't "be executed with" -> "specifying"

? "db.copyDatabase() must specifying the credentials of a user present in the source"?

Maybe s/with/using/ or s/with/specifying/? Or is that what you meant to begin with?

sorry, grammatical integration issue.

"you must specify the credentials to |copydb| of a user present in the source database."

"executed with" makes me think of the state at the call site rather than the arguments. to the function.

Perhaps s/executed/called/ then? Otherwise your sentence seems fine with the prepositional phrases swapped - "you must specify the credentials of a user present in the source database [when calling] |copydb|." which keeps the 'of a user' more closely modifying 'credentials.' I know you love your second person replacements of passive clauses. =)
