[resolved] Connection failure to SQL Server

[Anonymous]

I have version 6.1.1 of Talend Open Studio for Data Integration.
I can connect to my SQL Server database using SQL Server Management Studio, using SQL Server authentication (not Windows authentication)
When I try to use the same credentials in Talend (plus the name of a database), I get Connection failure error (connection refused).

Connection failure. You must change the Database Settings.

Hello Gaetan,

It seems that errors are a result of firewall setting that prevents outbound connections from the job server to the MS SQL Server host machine.

Could you please try to tweak firewall to allow outbound connections to the database server that the job needs to connect to? Let us know if it works.

Best regards

Sabrina
