I am trying to setup a connection to a MS SQL server, I am able to ping the server from a PC but I get stuck with a connection failure in the HMI.

I think the issue may be TLS causing the issue, but when using an MSSQL connection the TLS settings are disabled. Is it not possible to enable TLS when connecting to an MS SQL server or am I just missing something?

Hi @LMM5361,

Can you please check that the database name, username, and password are correct? Also, during installation did you enable “Mix mode” for the server authentication as shown in our instructions?

This issue is resolved, IT gave me the wrong database name. With the correct parameters it is working ok.
