Connect to SQLEXPRESS 2014 Via ODBC

  • When I try to connect I keep on getting connection errors. How do I setup SQLEXPRESS 2014 to Accept ODBC connections? Somebody please help.

  • Which connection error? Can you please share the exact error message?

    Can you post the ODBC configuration?

  • Connection failed

    SQL State 01000

    SQL Server Error: 10060

    [Microsoft][ODBC SQL Driver][TCP/IP Sockets]Connection Open(Connect())

    Connection Failed:

    SQL State 08001

    SQL SERVER Error: 17

    [Microsoft][ODBC SQL Driver][TCP/IP Sockets]SQL Server does not exist or denied

  • Can you post the DSN configuration?

    -- Gianluca Sartori

  • How do I do that? From when I try to setup the ODBC Connection? Or from the SQL Server? My trouble is I get the error when setting up a File DSN. Is there a trick to Setup the Express Server top allow ODBC Connections?

  • From the ODBC DSN configuration.

    You can also attach a screenshot to your reply if you want.
