So I've been working with SQL Server 2017 Developement for a few hours now.
I set up that I can connect via SQL Server Authentication;
I enabled my SA and I created a new Login.
both were setup properly by standards (Rights to databases etc)
Now I want to use SQL Server Management Studio to login via SQL Server Authentication but I get this error
(it says sa now but its the same whether it is sa or my created login)

I have "Encrypt connection" & "Trust server certificate" enabled in my options
I have search google for a solution but the only solution to my error is that I need to enable "Trust server certificate" but it doesn't resolve my problem.
Thanks in advance
Please check the Server authentication mode, in the service configuration choose the SQL Server and Windows Authentication mode radio button and Restart SQL Services.
I am currently working on an application server, and a SQL Server, in which my database resides.
I seem to have a very weird problem, I seem to be able to ping the SQL Server from my application server, but I cannot connect using SQL Server Management Studio using Windows authentication. If I try to change the password in configuration manager, I get an error saying that it is not possible.
I cannot connect to database, neither remote or locally..
SMSS - says that the login failed for the user.
I am completely new to databases.. I am doing a small application which needs to connect to a SQL Server database.
My SQL Server is installed on the company server
I am trying to login to SQL Server from my local system
Steps I have tried so far:
Since I have admin credentials to the company server I have logged in and included myself (SQL Server authentication) under security -> logins
So now when I try to connect from my local computer it is giving me "Login failed for user (Microsoft SQL Server error 18456)".
Can any one please help me with this?
Goal: I want to connect to companies server from my local machine.
I'm using DBI 1.624... and trying to connect SQL Server 2012. I wrote perl script to get data from db, and tested it on test server. It works fine. I repeated everything for other server and now I can not connect to db with error: Login Incorrect.
I created new login with SQL Authentication and I can login with it via SQL Server Management Studio, but when I try to connect via DBI:
DBI->connect('dbi:Sybase:server=SERVERNAME.domain.com:3180;database=master', 'user', 'pass')
I always get error:
DBI connect('server=SERVERNAME.domain.com:3180;database=master','user',...) failed: OpenCilent message:
LAYER = (0) ORIGIN = (0) SEVERITY = (78) NUMBER = (36)
Server SERVERNAME.domain.com:3180, database
Message String: Login incorrect.

Hi I created a new login SQL server authentication in SQL server 2008, however I am unable to login with that user.
Getting an error like ,
TITLE: Connect to Server
Cannot connect to (local).
ADDITIONAL INFORMATION:
Login failed for user 'sa'. (Microsoft SQL Server, Error: 18456)
The error Login failed for user 'sa' means that connection to server was established, but server refused it under certain circumstances, such as:
Wrong password
Sql server uses only Windows Authentication (needs server restart)
In your Connection String you ask to connect to specified DB, which is not exists
sa login is Disabled or Denied to access sql engine
User Action
If you are trying to connect using SQL Server Authentication, verify
that SQL Server is configured in Mixed Authentication Mode.
If you are trying to connect using SQL Server Authentication, verify
that SQL Server login exists and that you have spelled it properly.
If you are trying to connect using Windows Authentication, verify
that you are properly logged into the correct domain.
If your error indicates state 1, contact your SQL Server
administrator.
