Hi,

I'm evaluating dbForge Studio right now.
But using the same instance and authentication as in SSMS I get an error 26 - Server was not found or was not accessable.
What could be the problem ?

thanks

Could you please let us know what version of dbForge Studio for SQL Server you are using and provide us a screenshot of the 'General' tab of the Database Connection Properties dialog box that can be opened by right-clicking the connection in Database Explorer and selecting 'Modify Connection...' from the popup menu?

Please also provide us a screenshot of the error and perform the following:
1. Select 'Tools -> Options...' from the main menu. The 'Options' window opens.
2. Navigate to the 'Environment -> Output' branch.
3. Select the 'Write queries sent by the program to the SQL Log' and 'Log application errors' options.
4. Unselect the 'Delete application log after closing' option. Click 'OK'.
5. Reproduce the error and send us a *.log file with the latest date from the directory:

Code: Select all
