atitthaker Posted September 15, 2008 Share Posted September 15, 2008 Hi, I am trying to connect to MS SQL Server 2005 using PHP. But I am unable to connect to the SQL Server. Following things are in place. -- mssql extension is enabled in PHP and I can see MSSQL details in php info. -- named pipes and TCP/IP is enabled in SQL Server Configuration -- mssql.allow_persistent = On in php.ini -- I copied ntwdblib.dll to /windows directory. I am not sure what is going wrong but I am unable to connect to MS SQL Server 2005. thanks Atit Link to comment https://forums.phpfreaks.com/topic/124290-unable-to-connect-to-ms-sql-server-2005-using-php/ Share on other sites More sharing options...

atitthaker Posted September 16, 2008 Author Share Posted September 16, 2008 It gives me only one message: Warning: mssql_connect() [function.mssql-connect]: Unable to connect to server: node200 in E:\php_scripts\mssql_connection.php on line 28 I do not know what is going wrong here... I have also installed MS SQL Server Client tools on my system which is the web server for the application.

plimpton Posted September 22, 2008 Share Posted September 22, 2008 What is the name of your server you are connecting to? "(local)\SQLEXPRESS" works for me using the sqlsrv driver (not mssql) Link to comment https://forums.phpfreaks.com/topic/124290-unable-to-connect-to-ms-sql-server-2005-using-php/#findComment-648220 Share on other sites More sharing options...
