Hi,
I'm trying to connect to a remote server using TCP/IP. I'm getting the following error. What could be the problem?

"000000eefe136007 com.wm.app.b2b.server.DBConnectionException: [Microsoft][ODBC SQL Server Driver][TCP/IP Sockets]General network error. Check your network documentation."


Thanks
P.C. Vaidyanathan

Yes. I was able to ping the server.. There was a problem with the server settings which got sorted out.. Now it's working fine.
Thanks

Is there a firewall or router that is in between you and data server?

Are the proper ports open for remote access?
