I created a web app that connects to SQL Server 2008 Express and it worked perfectly. We then migrated the database to a new pc and upgraded the SQL server to 2012 Express. I changed all the credentials in hibernate.cfg.xml correctly to point at the database in its new location. Through some network traffic and connection monitoring I can see that there is indeed a connection being made to the pc from the application on port 1433 and it is being handled by the SQL Server. Thats as far as it gets. From viewing the SQL that is generated by Hibernate it looks like it gets to the point of offering credentials (username and password) and then just stopping. It doesn't seem to be able to talk to SQL Server 2012 correctly and give the credentials. Any thoughts?

Hey,

Were you able to get the issues resolved? I am in a similar situation and not get to get my way out. s

Yes I did eventually get it working. I can't quite remember the details of what I did to fix it. My web app was actually a Flash program. I remember having to make sure my Hibernate jar was the most recent so that it could talk to Server 2012. I also had to re-create the ODBC connection to the database to give the correct permissions to the application. I think those were the 2 things that were the fix. Sorry I can't be of more help it was 4 months ago and I did not document it well.
