Connecting JIRA to SQLServer

[Darren Summerfield]

Hi

Following the set-up wizard I have an issue where I cannot connect to the SQL database. I get the following error:

Error connecting to database

Login failed for user 'domianX\usernameY'

If I run SQL Server Management Studio I can log into the database not problems using the same credentials. I have read that the issue maybe related to the fact I have the domain included in the username as in 'domainX\usernameY', the domain is needed in order to connect. Is there an alternate syntax for the username or any other workaround?

Thanks

I case anyone is wondering, I removed the domain from the user name and changed the server string to the format: <server>:<port>/<database>;domain=X
