  • Hi All,

    I have SQL 2005. I have an access front end and SQL backend. I need users to test the database I am working on. I gave the permissions to access the database. Now, I am trying connect but I am getting this error,

    have check all these possibilities allows remote connection, sql server browser service is running on the server, TCP/IP protocol is enabled but still got same issue.

    Connection Failed:

    SQLSTATE: '01000'

    SQL Server Error: 233

    [Microsoft] [ODBC SQL server driver][DBNETLIB]Connection open (PreLoginHandshake())

    Connection failed:

    SQLState: '08001'

    SQL Server error: 11

    [Microsoft] [ODBC SQL server driver][DBNETLIB]General Network error. Chcek your network documentation.

    Thanks in Advance

  • Have you tried the following:

  • Are you able to connect through SSMS from your workstation and from the server itself?

    Have test the Connesction String and its working fine.

    Thank you

    Run below command from a command prompt on the server hosting the application.

    telnet <SQL Server IP> <SQL Server Port Number>

    If you get any error then it is a firewall issue & contact your firewall administrator to allow this particular port.
