[06] Error: during database connection.

[runny]

Hi, is just wanted to install Dadabik.

First of all, i really don't know much about web server and sql server.

I always get this Error message
[06] Error: during database connection.
when i try to visit "http://localhost/dadabik/install.php"


My setup
MS SQL Server 2008 express on local
I created a SQL Server User with all rights (SQL Auth)
Activated SQL Auth on server....login works in Server Managament Studio

XAMPP/Apache Webserver
# magic_quotes_gpc = on in php.ini (this is the default setting) .......done
# magic_quotes_sybase = on in php.ini ......done

// DBMS server host
$host = 'NB16\SQLEXPRESS'; ?! This is the correct SQL server name or do i have to use 127.0.0.1 for localhost?

// database name
$db_name = 'test';

// database user
$user = 'Admin'; //

// database password
$pass = '*******';

// DaDaBIK complete url
$site_url = 'http://localhost/dadabik/';

// DaDaBIK url path
$site_path = '/dadabik/';


some Ideas? Do i have to create a special table in the database?

The only obvious thing I can think of is to double check the SQL server $host variable and change the $site_url to match the URL on the server where you are attempting to install DaDaBIK. Also ensure the username / password for the SQL Server (remote) is correct.

Unfortunately, I know nothing about MS SQL server so I don't know what it expects as the $host name.

Hi Runny,
while you maybe can manage to get DaDaBIK works with MS SQL, as you can see from the documentation at the moment the only DBMSs officially supported are MySQL, PostgreSQL and SQLite.
