Common Errors and Solutions

​
Common Errors and Solutions

  1. Connection Timeout Issues
    • Solution: Verify that the host, port, and network configurations are correct. Increase connectTimeout in the configuration if needed.
  2. Authentication Failures
    • Solution: Ensure the provided username and password are correct, and the user has access to the specified database. Use a SQL client to verify credentials.
  3. Encryption Errors
    • Solution: If your SQL Server instance enforces encryption, ensure the encrypt option is set to true. If not, set it to false.
  4. Permission Issues
    • Solution: Verify that the user has READ and WRITE access to the required database. Use the following SQL command to grant permissions: 
      GRANT ALL PRIVILEGES ON DATABASE config_db TO [admin];

    • Solution: Confirm the correctness of the provided username and password. Ensure the user has appropriate access to the specified database. You can verify credentials by logging in using an SQL client tool.
  3. Encryption Configuration Problems
    • Solution: Check if the encrypt option is set correctly for your database setup. If SQL Server requires encrypted connections, ensure that encryption is enabled in the configuration.
  4. Database Permissions Issues
