Hi, I need help. I've all but given up.
Running cold fusion 2016 on windows pro 8.1 and using ms sqlsvr 2014 all running on the same machine and using localhost
I've tried several configurations and i end up with basically the same dead end .I've tried to set up dsn's on windows. I've downloaded JDBC files but not sure where to install and configured
Error Message
Connection verification failed for data source: myfoodsource
java.sql.SQLNonTransientConnectionException: [Macromedia][SQLServer JDBC Driver][SQLServer]Cannot open database "food_migration" requested by the login. The login failed.
The root cause was that: java.sql.SQLNonTransientConnectionException: [Macromedia][SQLServer JDBC Driver][SQLServer]Cannot open database "food_migration" requested by the login. The login failed.
Thanking you in advance
Joe

The exact reason is being specified in the error - The Login Failed..
This means what ever credentials you are using are incorrect.
When you add a datasource in Coldfusion Admin what are you using for the username and password? Is this a user that is setup on the SQL server (with correct permissions) and is the password correct.
The other usual thing is that you have not enabled mixed authentication mode, which means it is not authorising at all as it is expecting a windows auth login.
So firstly, is the user you are using on the CF admin setup on the SQL server?
Secondly, Is SQL set to mixed auth mode?
