Title: Network error when connecting to server (7.5)
Post by: J Milne on July 15, 2009, 10:54:13 pm

Hi all,

When attempting to connect to a SQL server I get the error:

"Enterprise Architect experienced a newtork error and will close down."

The full settings I am using are:

Microsoft OLE DB Provider for SQL Server
Windows NT Integrated security (with a domain admin account that my IT guys have assured me has permissions to the server and target database)

The Test Connection facility reports success.

I have checked the event logs, googled and searched in the help and forums but no joy.

Can anyone give me a starting point to diagnose this?

I have Visual Studio 2008 with Team System installed on Windows XP Professional.

Thanks for any help.

Jean

I assume you've created a SQL Server schema to hold your project. Have you done a project transfer to move your project (or an empty seed project) from an EAP file? If not, that step must be done before EA will 'cooperate' with SQL Server.
