SQL Network Interfaces, error: 26 - Error Locating Server/Instance Specified

‎05-25-2023 03:14 AM

I constantly getting this problem notice when I try to remotely connect to my PowerBI server using my MS SQL login information. The server name is OK, my SQL Server permits remote connections, and my TCP/IP only permits connections through port 1433 for a specified IP address.

@Anonymous , Check are you controlling ip, usually while creation cloud data source allow only current ip

check if port 1433 is open
