Remote Database Connectivity error

  • We are in web site development company,Previously we don't have proxy configuration, after implementing Proxy , we have an issue to connect a remote database.

    The error pops "A network-related or instance-specific error occurred while establishing a connection to SQL Server. The server was not found or was not accessible. Verify that the instance name is correct and that SQL Server is configured to allow remote connections.Error 53".

    Requesting you a valuable solution.

  • You need to speak to your network team.

    Typically, when implementing a proxy, you lock down your firewall to only allow outbound connections when they're routed via the proxy (or people could just bypass it) and you manage a list of exceptions for applications that need to go out directly and can't be routed via a proxy. I would suggest this server needs to be on the exceptions list for direct access out.
