Unable to login to the SQL Server Authentication

Post by czaleski » Fri 15 Mar 2019 14:14

SQL Server 2017 - Salesforce- ODBC drivers
I receive an error of 233 or 18456 Login failed when trying to login. I need to obtain the attached certificates and/or match the encryption from Salesforce to SQL Server.
There was a step by step guide about 5 months ago on this site that assisted us in this process that has since been deleted.
Any assistance would be greatly appreciated.

Update to a new error of 7399

Please describe in detail the moment when you get the errors you described. If they occur when trying to establish a connection with SQL Server 2017, you should contact the customer support of this product or look through the specialized forums for a solution. To learn how to set up our driver in the SQL Server Management Studio environment, please refer to:

Please perform the following steps :

- use SQL Server Authentication instead of Windows Authentication
- try running NT SERVICE\MSSQLSERVER under your Windows user name

Thank you for all the links and help throughout this process, I actually ended up uninstalling and reinstalling and found the missing link was in the way it was originally installed. It is working perfectly now.
thank you!
