How do I address "Microsoft OLE DB Provider for SQL Server Login failed for user 'sa'."?

If you receive the following error:



“Microsoft
OLE DB Provider for SQL Server Login failed for user ‘sa’. Reason: Not
associated with a trusted SQL Server connection.”




This is because the SQL server needs to be changed to mixed mode security - not trusted connections only.

To make this change, go to Enterprise Manager, go to the server you are running
Helm on, and right-click - then choose Properties. Go to the Security tab and
you’ll see that Authentication is set to Windows only. Change this to
SQL Server and Windows.
