I need to get to grips with SQL Server 2008 and thought this would be a good place to start.I need to create a connection file to connect to SQL Server but it is giving me an error. We have been provided with a java exe that should create the connection file for me, but I have to feed in the parameters about my database in order for it to create the file. I have successfully done this on another machine that hooks into MS SQL 2005, but having trouble with 2008.jdbc:sqlserver://localhost:1433;databaseName=dekhoThis is the java exe:  Returns this: >SQL Service running>Database name is dekho> username + password are correct, have reset password to be double sure.>1433 is correct TCP port in SQL Server 2008 1. Can anyone provide me some info on how to further troubleshoot?2. Has anything changed between 2005 + 2008, perhaps the JDBC driver that could be causing me the issue?Like I said, used identical settings on different machine with 2005 and it created an output file. 3. Perhaps I can test this connection elsewhere to see if the problem lies with the java exe?Really appreciate any help that you can offer. |
