Hi,

1. copy ntwdblib.dll to folder where php is installed (e.g. \xampp\php) and also to apache\bin
2. out comment extension=php_mssql.dll in php.ini (delete ; before)
3. try to connect (also try with e.g. SQL server Management Studio if connection is ok)

please see documentation:
si2.php.net/manual/en/mssql.requirements.php
www.helpspot.com/helpdesk/index.php?pg=kb.page&id=13

*if you still cannt connect send me mail customers@toolsjx.com, I will send you my ntwdblib.dll (i think also correct dll version is needed)

if you have mssql 2000 type in DB type: mssql2000

for 2005 or 2008: mssql

Unable to connect to the database:Could not connect to MSSQL server H2ASERVER\SQLEXPRESS

Hi,

mssql adapter is ok now.

can you check if your credentials to connect to mssql are ok? Case sensitive, user that can connect, ...

Can you replace line 64 with this line below in
\libraries\joomla\database\database\mssql.php


Hope we get some more info about your error.

Best regards,
Viljem

well finally migrate to mysql and now works ok !
