Hi, I can’t check because this database things on client side. I am using my local machine only. I have even not connected with the VPN. From my machine I want to connect their database.
As mentioned above I have only login credentials and the server name.

Hello,

Try to connect this database in Sql server management studio. if its work in SSMS studio then it also work in uipath.

you have to ask your client to check for Sql server browser service is running on that machine and TCP/IP port is enable and also check for forewall for inbound rule for 1433 port number.

Thanks,

Hi
In your sql server before running a query you will be selecting a database to ensure where to run that query right…
We need that database name to be mentioned here
And it must be mentioned by you and only we will be able to test the connectivity

Kindly check once in your sql server for database name as to run a query in sql server it will be run under a database

Yes, I tried without giving any database name, but it’s giving me the same error.
What can be the cause for this error. ? Bcz I don’t have any access to check in the SQL Server as It’s on client place only.

Bro, I am not able to run any query, As I don’t have any access to the SQL Server, I will only when I will be able to connect to the database.I am connecting from my local machine. This SQL all setup is on client place, only they provided me the Login credentials and the Server Name.

19

Then do we have a chance to get the database name alone
If that is provided we will be able to connect here

Hi @balkishan,

Did you check does your client enables the SQL connection to connect from the outside networks?
