SQL Connection Suddenly Broken

(0) ShareShare
ReportReport
Posted on by pjfassam 2

Have been using Flow for a few weeks now. 

 

However today the SQL connection has broken. The message is:

 

"Please check your account info and/or permissions and try again. Details: Microsoft SQL: A network-related or instance-specific error occurred while establishing a connection to SQL Server. The server was not found or was not accessible. Verify that the instance name is correct and that SQL Server is configured to allow remote connections. (provider: TCP Provider, error: 0 - No such host is known.) clientRequestId: ...."

 

I have tried a new flow and can't get it working in that either.

 

However, my Azure SQL database is functioning well via SSMS or Azure page.

 

Any thoughts?

    Hi @pjfassam,

     

    Have you changed the password of your local PC?

    Please try to update or recreate the connection to see if it will work.

    I have made a simple flow to test this issue, the SQL connection is working perfect.

    If you are still having the issue, please feel free post back.

     

    Best regards,

    Mabel

    Hi,

    It fixed itself after around 3 hours so must have been something of MS’s end I figure.
