Hi,
I'm testing Innovator Server 9.0.1 on two virtual machines. They both worked fine with local sql server express 2005. Now I want VM1 to connect to the database on VM2. So I changed the line of InnovatorServerConfig.xml of VM1 from
<DB-Connection id="InnovatorSolutions" database="InnovatorSolutions" server="(local)SQLEXPRESS" uid="innovator" pwd="innovator" dbType="SQL Server" />
to
<DB-Connection id="InnovatorSolutions" database="InnovatorSolutions" server="192.168.1.2" uid="innovator" pwd="innovator" dbType="SQL Server" />
I can use SQL Management Studio Express from VM1 to connect to the sql server express on VM2. So the network config should be fine.
But when I tried to login, a SOAP Error window popped up: "Unexpected Server Side Error Occurred". I closed this window and another error window popped up:
*** Wrong SOAP message!*** Error:
Server Error in '/InnovatorServer/Server' Application.
ErrorCode:-1072896766 Reason: A string literal was expected, but no opening quote character was found.
It worked with SQL Server 2008 trial as the remote database. But I really want to use SQL Server Express 2005.
Can anyone tell me how to work around this?
Thanks.

I did not know SQL Server Express could support remote connections.
Did you try the instance name, rather then the ipaddress?

SQL Server Express should support remote connections as it accepts remote SQL Server Management Studio Express connections.
I put a line : "192.168.10.2 aras2" in /windows/system32/driver/etc/hosts and tried 'server="aras2"' and 'server="aras2SQLEXPRESS"' in InnovatorServerConfig.xml ending up with the same error.
Any idea?
Thanks.
