Make sure your TCP/IP connections are enabled in the SQL Server. It's disabled by default.

Go to SQL Server Configuration Manager -> SQL Server Network Configuration -> Select 'Protocols on MSSQLServer' -> enable TCP/IP connections

I am using DXP Trial version (we dont have subscription to it yet).
All my settings seem to be correct. There is something curious in Fixpack 12
"Resolution: Use the driver automatically loaded by Liferay through jdbc.default.driverClassName=com.microsoft.sqlserver.jdbc.SQLServerDriver, instead of the "

I dont see a 'automatically loaded' driver in DXP for sql server - i installed one from msdn.

I dont see anything wrong with firewall, also since I can connect to the same SQL Server with Liferay 6.2 it should not be that.

I am using a regular SQL auth user set up on the db used by 6.2 and now on this new DB (to which i can connect outside of liferay ok).

SQL Server is only supported in Liferay DXP, the enterprise version of Liferay 7

You have information about configuring SQL Server in customer portal (only for enterprise customers)

If you are using Liferay DXP and you are an enterprise customer, you can also open a ticket in LESA and ask for help.

Check local firewall for access.

Also make sure that you're not stuck on windows auth less you provide appropriate windows authentication.

Come meet me at Devcon 2017 or 2017 LSNA!

Hello,

I am trying out Liferay DXP and having trouble connecting to my local SQL Server 2008 (SQLEXpress). I tried using both jtds and sqljdbc driver and the final error in both cases is 'Dialect Not found'.
The local SQL Server does have TCP/IP enabled and port 1433 open, and i have no problems connecting to it using Liferay 6.2.

I tried all possible variations of jdbc url, ie.: jdbc:sqlserver://localhost:1433;databaseName=Liferay7;instance=SQLEXPRESS;
and all give the same error.
Here is the stack trace:

00:42:18,297 ERROR [http-nio-8080-exec-8][DialectDetector:137] com.microsoft.sql
server.jdbc.SQLServerException: The TCP/IP connection to the host localhost, por

tions to the port are not blocked by a firewall.".

Does anyone know what is happening here?
thank you
