I am trying to test my connection to the database in configuration of database in version 4.09.02

I am getting this error message:

Connection Error(s):
Index #: 0
Source: .Net SqlClient Data Provider
Class: 14
Number: 18456
Message: Login failed for user 'dnn_user'.

 

Any ideas on how to correct this? or where I should look?

Thank you for your help

The message is saying that the login failed for the indicated user. Make sure you have THAT login for THAT database and that the password is correct.


Do you know the truth when you hear it?

Thanks for the help.

I checked the user name and password it is there.

I read that I may have used the wrong sql server express, so I uninstalled it and used sql 2008 express with tools.  am I using the wrong sql? or any other suggestions?

DNN works fine with SQL Server 2008 (Express). you need to configure TCP/IP for SQL Server and client and choose proper authentification options.

thank you for the help.  sql 2008 tcp/ip was not on, did what you said, and gave the correct user rights.  It loaded and is now up and running.

I also downloaded the newest version 4.09.03, all is good

Thank you again.
