Dude, if it is a bug it, is a bug and no messing....try and log it or add your weight into the official MM forums - see if an engineer gets back or call support and use the free installation support MM provides stating you cannot log on with SQL password longer than 16 chars
-----Original Message----- From: Chase Seibert [mailto:[EMAIL PROTECTED] Sent: 29 June 2005 15:35 To: CF-Talk Subject: RE: CF7 - 16 character limit on SQL passwords Thanks for the good suggestion. I did indeed install the Microsoft JDBC driver, using the instructions at: http://www.macromedia.com/cfusion/knowledgebase/index.cfm?event=view&id=KC.t n_18652&extid=tn_18652&dialogID=48544472&iterationID=1&sessionID=48303fb989f 57d426352&stateID=0+0+11018907&mode=advanced However, this did not solve my issue. ColdFusion appears to be truncating the password at 16 characters before it passes is to JDBC, regardless of the driver used. When I configure this new driver to use the sa username/password (which is under 16 chars), it works great. When I change just the username and password to our regular login (bullhorn1), I get a "Login failed error". It's not saying the password is too long, or that JDBC is rejecting the password due to length, it's saying login failed. This leads to the assumption on my part that CF is truncating or otherwise altering the password before it hands it off to the driver.
