Testlink pbs with mssql server 2005 with integrated security

[bond681]

Hi everyone,

I have a problem with connecting myself to the mssql server during the installation process of Testlink. I tried to search for already existed issues like this, but couldn't find anything like it.

So here is what I get :
Creating connection to Database Server: Connection error to server 'MY_HOST\\DEV' with user 'AAAAA\\MYLOGIN' - Failed!
Please check the database login details and try again.

Here is my configurations and installation's description:
I am using PHP 5.2.17 with php_mssql.dll extension on!
When running the installation it shows: "Checking MSSQL Database OK "
Database configuration:
Database Type: "MS SQL Server 2005/2008 (Experimental)"
Database Host: "MY_HOST\DEV:PORT"
Testlink DB login: "AAAAA\MYLOGIN"

The Database host and the login are both correct, since I am using it with another project.

I have been looking for solutions since weeks, but in vain. If anyone can bring help, it would be very appreciated.

Thank you in advance.

1. what does it means 'integrated security' ?
2. what AAAA represents ib AAAAA\MYLOGIN

IMHO fortunately there are lots of Operating Systems out there in addition to Windows, and not all the people use windows, then better details will help

Thanks for replying.

Integrated security is when the current Windows account credentials are used for authentication.
In my sql environment the login is separated by " \ ", the AAAA represents the domain name. MYLOGIN is my username.

Hope that clarified.

never tested.
On other app (coldfusion) I use, I always use SQL authentication, then I suggest follow this path
