I was wondering anyone could help. I am trying to get a JDBC server working, the server runs but it times out when connecting to the db.. I have SQL server 2012 express running as an instance (QUINGOCRM) and created a database on the SQL server. I installed my config file as such....
Based on the error, RDC cannot connect to the database. Is the database hosted on the same computer? If not then you should make sure that the firewall allows incoming connection on the SQL Server default port.
Yes, the SQL Server is on the same machine, it is a VM on a Mac at the moment, but I am buying a PC to run it off. I will try updating to the second version, but I am not sure that will help if I can't get past the stage of connecting to a database. Do you think it could be the JDBC driver? I have downloaded the version from Microsoft and the tdbc shown in your tutorial, however I think the instance may be throwing things off?
When I do a netstat -a however, I cannot see 1433 as being listened to, I can see a UDP [: :] : 1434 however and I know the SQL server is running as I can connect to another database running on it using MS Access. Most confused.
That was painful, it was an issue with the SQL Server, the browser service was tied to another instance and the QUINGOCRM instance was not listening on 1433. I uninstalled SQL entirely and reinstalled and now it it is working.
