Hi,
Just installed latest Windows lucee with MSSQL server Express and am getting the dreaded “Login failed for user” when trying to create a datasource for my database (in MSSQL Express). Express is working fine in so far as creating db, table and queries etc. using SMSS.
When I create a datasource (I tried both contexts, web and server on lucee btw) no matter what username and password I use it says “Login failed for user”. I have an “sa” user and I tried that first, and no luck. I have the database, the server (localhost) and the port (1433, which I changed in the protocol section in SQL Configuration for TCP/IP as it was set to another larger number previously, otherwise SMSS would not work).
Any advice appreciated 
I’ve followed loads of threads, and no joy. CF works first time, Lucee won’t play ball
