I'm running into an issue using the SQL Server Repository - No matter how I configure the webconfig.xml file, when FOCUS tries to hit the SQL Server database, it is receiving a bad password. I can login to SQL Server fine outside of WebFOCUS, but when WebFOCUS tries from the Unix install, it is apparently passing a bad password.

Has anyone else experienced this?

I've only seen this when trying to use an AD account instead of an internal SQL Server account.

I work with a different environment, but had a similar issue. Check the odin.cfg file in wfc/etc.

I recall an issue with SQL Server installations that are installed with the default collation which is case insensitive. Verify you DB/Column respect case.
