Problem with MSSQL SPARTA 2000 JDBC Driver

[Swami]

Hi,
I have installed MQ SQL Server 2000 on my laptop and trying to use
SPARTA 2000 JDBC Driver (inetmssql.jar) to connect to the local db. I
wrote a sample Java app to test the connection and I get the following
error trace,

DriverManager.initialize: jdbc.drivers = null
JDBC DriverManager initialized
SQLException: SQLState(08S01)
{sql7=true, port=1433, user=sa, url=jdbc:inetdae7:US0211737-WP01:1433,
password=wasfe, host=US0211737-WP01}
getConnection failed: com.inet.tds.SQLException: Connection refused:
connect
com.inet.tds.SQLException: Connection refused: connect
java.net.ConnectException: Connection refused: connect

I tried searching the web and product doc. Nothing seems to help me.
Has anyone come across similiar problems? Any pointers will be
appreciated also.

Thanks,
Swami.

Hi,

In MSSQL "Server Network Utility" add all the protocols and stop > Start
MSSQL.
It worked for me but i don't know why.
