# Resolving SQL Server Authentication Issue for Windows User
|
||
|
|
||
|
This guide addresses a common issue when connecting to a SQL Server instance using Windows OS. If you encounter the error below, follow the steps outlined to resolve it effectively.
|
||
|
|
||
|
## Error Description
|
||
|
When attempting to connect to SQL Server using a Windows user, the following error appears:
|
||
|
|
||
|
```
|
||
|
(pyodbc.InterfaceError) ('28000', "[28000] [Microsoft][ODBC Driver 18 for SQL Server][SQL Server]Login failed for user 'domain\\user'. (18456)")
|
||
|
```
|
||
|
|
||
|
Additionally, the SQL Server logs display:
|
||
|
|
||
|
```
|
||
|
Login failed for user 'domain\user'. Reason: Attempting to use an NT account name with SQL Server Authentication.
|
||
|
```
|
||
|
## Root Cause
|
||
|
The error occurs because the connection is configured to use SQL Server Authentication instead of Windows Authentication. Windows Authentication requires a connection scheme that supports integrated security.
|
||
|
|
||
|
## Resolution
|
||
|
|
||
|
### Step 1: Verify Connection Configuration
|
||
|
1. Ensure that you are connecting to SQL Server using **Windows Authentication**.
|
||
|
2. Update the connection scheme to use `mssql+pymssql` instead of `mssql.pyodbc`.
|
||
|
|
||
|
### Step 2: Update the Connection Details in Collate
|
||
|
1. Navigate to **MSSQL Service Configuration** in the Collate UI.
|
||
|
2. Update the **Connection Scheme** to `mssql+pymssql`.
|
||
|
3. Retain the following connection details:
|
||
|
- **Host and Port**: e.g., `10.121.89.148:62452`.
|
||
|
- **Database**: Specify the target database (e.g., `OneSumx_Stoging`).
|
||
|
- **Username**: Use the Windows account username, e.g., `domain\user`.
|
||
|
4. Save the updated configuration.
|
||
|
|
||
|
### Step 3: Test the Connection
|
||
|
1. After saving the changes, click **Test Connection** in the Collate UI.
|
||
|
2. Confirm that the following steps pass successfully:
|
||
|
- **CheckAccess**
|
||
|
- **GetDatabases**
|
||
|
- **GetSchemas**
|
||
|
- **GetTables**
|
||
|
- **GetViews**
|
||
|
- **GetQueries**
|
||
|
|
||
|
### Expected Outcome
|
||
|
After updating the connection scheme, the connection should succeed. The status will display:
|
||
|
|
||
|
```
|
||
|
Connection Status: Success
|
||
|
```
