SQL Server 2005 login problem

  • I am using SQL Server 2005, and i have a password to get in the SQL server. when i tried to log in using SQL server authentication i get the below error. any help is really appreciated.

    Thanks.

    Additional Information:

    A connection was successfully established with the server, but then an error occurred during the login process. (Provider: Shared Memory Provider, error :0 –No process is on the other end of the pipe.) (Microsoft SQL server, Error : 233)

  • Did you try and search google on this???

    You probably don't have named pipes enabled. Try connecting using TCPIP or enable named pipes.

  • yes i have named pipes and TCP/IP enabled.and also in server properties in security SQL Server and windows authentication is selected.

  • Is this Default instance on the server?

  • yes

  • can you try giving port number along with instance IP.

    I once had this issue and giving port number solved it.

  • i am a newbie. i don't know how to give port number

  • xx.xxx.xx.xx,1433
