Unable to connect to a datasouce, getting the SQL sqlstate 08001

[Vineeth Menon]

Hi folks,

I have tried in a lot of places and still no luck, I am trying to connect my Java application using a Type 1 JDBC driver, with MS SQL 2008. The server is installed on my computer itself and I am able to access the server and make changes to the database and all but, when I try to create a datasource by going to ODBC section in Windows I am getting this error, SQL sqlstate 08001. If there is anyone out there who knows how to fix this please help me....

Thanks in Advance
Vineeth.
