Hi all,
My point is about how to connect successfully microsoft sql server 2012 to PAexpert.
I tried :
- installing the JDBC drivers for Microsoft sql server 2012
- configuring MS SQL Server to allow external connections
- setting TCP enabled
- cutting off the firewall
- trying ip adresses instead of server names
My settings for connection where :
User Name : SESSION/MYUSERNAME
Password : none (connected using windows connection, I also tried using my windows login password)
Server:(port) : PORP0023/SQLEXPRESS
Database : MYDATABASE
I always get that error message :
Driver error: The TCP/IP connection to the host PORP0023/SQLEXPRESS, port 1433 has failed. Error:"null. Verify the connection properties. Make sure that an instance of SQL Server is running on the host and accepting TCP/IP connections at the port. make sure that TCP connections to the port are not blocked by a firewall.
I also tried with MS SQL server 2014 : same error.
And I tried connecting to my MS SQL server using telnet (it works).
Please help me to solve that issue.
Regards,
