Problem:

HCOSS & SQL Server CNN using SQL User authentication causes MS Visual Studio 2008 HCOSS build error > Error 2 Connection name not found. Builds ok when Windows authentication is used.

Resolution:

Setting the SQL PASS directive solves the issue.

Sa.sa is the user you would create in the SQL server using the SQL management studio tool.

Make sure you have PASS=sa.sa in your SQL directives.

sa.sa = defined SQL Server user & should be created as a SQL Server user.

UID: sa password: sa , sa.sa is used as an example.
