Hello everyone,
I am now trying to connect to the classic Adventure Works database via the Microsoft SQL Server Management <-> Knime. I have already looked threw this forum but still can't solve the problem. First Database Reader failed due to the URL, now I have tried the "default" option jdbc:sqlserver://localhost;databaseName=AdventureWorks and lately it shows the timed out mistake. I have already changed the so-called timeout for database operations, its 6000 seconds now. It looks like the Database Readers "runs" but never finishes.
UPD: now, dependently on the Hostname I use, i get two types of mistakes:
1) The TCP/IP connection to the host SQLExpress, port 1433 has failed.
3) Login failed for user XX.
My question is: which of this mistakes is "better"? Meaning, what is done first: TCP/IP connection or login attempt? And how that "better" mistake shall be improved?
Thank You for any reaction,
kk
