Author Still Cannot Login sa
Charles A. Lackman

2006-10-24, 6:38 pm

Hello,

I installed SQL Express using the following Silent Install:

SQLEXPR.EXE /qb SECURITYMODE=SQL SAPWD=MyPassword ADDLOCAL=ALL
INSTANCENAME=SQLExpr
ess DISABLENETWORKPROTOC
OLS= 0 SQLAUTOSTART=1

I cannot login using SQLCMD - E or -U sa -P MyPassword or with
MyComputer\SQLExpres
s

Using ADO doesn't work either. All gives me the same error.

Sqlcmd: Error: Microsoft SQL Native Client: An error has occurred while
establishing a connection to the server. When connecting to SQL Server 2005,
this failure may be caused by the fact that under the default settings SQL
Server does not allow remote connections.

Please Help,
Thanks,
Chuck

Hi Charles

You don't say if this is trying to connect locally or remotely? Have you
checked the installation log files?

Hi

Does a NET START command show that it is running? What do the logs say?

did you (correctly) provide the server name like
c:\>sqlcmd.exe -E -S(Local)\SQLExpress
?
