Can not connect to SQL Servre via Coldfusion 8 DSN

[mpire88]

I have installed Coldfusion 8 on a windows xp professional laptop as well as SQL Server 2000. I have created the DSN and restored the neccessary databases. When I go to the Coldfusion Administrator to connect to the database via DSN I get the following error mesage. I am attempting to connect through my windows account.

Connection verification failed for data source: OTT
java.sql.SQLException: [Macromedia][SQLServer JDBC Driver]A username was not specified and the driver could not establish a connection using NTLM (type 2) integrated security: InitializeSecurityContext, 0x80090304
The root cause was that: java.sql.SQLException: [Macromedia][SQLServer JDBC Driver]A username was not specified and the driver could not establish a connection using NTLM (type 2) integrated security: InitializeSecurityContext, 0x80090304

Can anyone please help with this

By default CF connects to SQL server using SQL authentication.

Your options:
Change your DSN to a use a SQL login username and password.



To use integrated (windows) authentication set your ColdFusion Application Server windows service to the windows account you wish to access SQL server.
You have two options:

1. Use Microsoft's JDBC driver

2. Use the drivers bundled with ColdFusion create an "Other" datasource as in this article.

Note the article refers to ColdFusion versions 6 and 7 so it may not apply to version 8.
