Re: PHP connecting to MSSQL

Hi Alf, just a guess, are you using any kind of firewall (application or port based) on your computer? Could you try a "telnet localhost 1433" to check if this works? Regarding php.ini changes: have you restarted the web server's services after changing? Another source for an alternative way to access MSSQL (with FreeTDS): http://docs.moodle.org/en/Installing_MSSQL_for_PHP Regards, Sascha P.S. I guess you probably checked all of the above, but I just think about all possible causes for this problem. -------- Original-Nachricht -------- > Datum: Mon, 30 Mar 2009 14:15:41 +0200 > Von: Alf Stockton <alf@stockton.co.za> > An: Sascha Meyer <harlequin2@gmx.de> > CC: jmertic@gmail.com, php-windows@lists.php.net > Betreff: Re: [PHP-WIN] PHP connecting to MSSQL > Sascha Meyer wrote: > > Hi Alf, > > > > have you checked the comments on the php.net page > (http://us.php.net/mssql_connect)?
