    [DBNETLIB][ConnectionOpen (Connect()).]SQL Server does not exist or access denied.

  • Hi,

    This could have multiple causes

    1. try connecting to sql to ssms with your user credentials

    2. ensure the correct protocol is selected under SACM,i.e named pipes and tcp/ip

    not sure what you have tried

    i tried connecting from front end

  • your front end cannot connect to sql for some reason.

    we need to check if sql is running, if it is, then we need to check if your login is valid.

    once you have these answers, you will have some direction on the resolution.

  • sql is running and login is valid

  • did you check my 2nd suggestion in my initial reply?

  • it is namedpipes/tcp

  • try testing the ODBC connection.

    if this works, then its ur app.

    sorry thats all i got

  • start > control panel > administrative tools > data source
