For some reason, even though I specify the correct DB credentials/server name, SF fails to setup the DB on installation. It acts as though there's a problem connecting to the DB server, even though the DB server is accessible from the same machine via other applications (no problems whatsoever). I've attached a print screen of the error.



I'm evaluating this software and am not able to get too far because of this.

No. I'm a member of the SysAdmin server role on the server.







Yup, do it weekly (I'm a developer and a DBA where I work).

As I have mentioned on the other thread, this has nothing to do with the connection. It has to do with the enumeration of the SQL Servers on the network. We will be publishing a new build soon (hopefully later in the week) that will prevent this error from happening. This is being cause by the installation tool that we use in conjunction with the MSI.
