I am trying to connect to a MS SQL server from django on Linux using Vernon Cole's django-mssql package (https://bitbucket.org/vernondcole/django-mssql-ado-merge/src).
When I first tried to connect it failed with: Exception Type: DatabaseError at /report/CDSEM/EventsTable/ Exception Value: Cannot create connection to=PYRO:[email protected]:9099 I traced it through /usr/lib/python2.6/site-packages/adodbapi/remote.py and I see it tries to access os.environ['PROXY_PORT'], which is not defined and then it defaults to 9099 - Is that the correct port or should I set os.environ['PROXY_PORT']? How can I tell what port MS SQL db is listening on? I googled this and it said the default MS SQL port is 1433. I set os.environ['PROXY_PORT'] to that and now I don't get that error but it times out: > /usr/lib/python2.6/site-packages/Pyro4-4.22-py2.6.egg/Pyro4/core.py(160)__call__() -> return self.__send(self.__name, args, kwargs) (Pdb) n TimeoutError: TimeoutE...imeout',) I tried opening port 1433 with iptables, but still no joy. I can connect to the MS SQL db locally from the host it's running so I know it's up and my credentials are correct, and I can ping the Windows box from the Linux host I am running on, so I know there is connectivity to it from there. Anyone here ever get this working? Anyone have any ideas as to what my problem is or how I can debug this further?
