Example #1 PDO_SQLSRV DSN examples

The following example shows how to connecto to a specified MS SQL Server database:

$c = new PDO("sqlsrv:Server=localhost;Database=testdb", "UserName", "Password");

The following example shows how to connect to a MS SQL Server database on a specified port:

$c = new PDO("sqlsrv:Server=localhost,1521;Database=testdb", "UserName", "Password");

The following example shows how to connecto to a SQL Azure database with server ID 12345abcde. Note that when you connect to SQL Azure with PDO, your username will be UserName@12345abcde (UserName@ServerId).

$c = new PDO("sqlsrv:Server=12345abcde.database.windows.net;Database=testdb", "UserName@12345abcde", "Password");

This is the code that worked for me. I had to specify both the host name [localhost] and the server instance name [SQLEXPRESS], separating them with a double backslash before it would work.

<?php
$conn
= new PDO('sqlsrv:Server=localhost\\SQLEXPRESS;Database=MyDatabase', 'MyUsername', 'MyPassword');
?>

I suspect the problem with "Server=foo-sql\MSSQLSERVER" was you didn't escape the backslash, with a backslash.

If hostname worked, than IP would work as well given a hostname resolves to an IP unless your DNS was mapping to the wrong IP which would be a simple issue.

I suspect you are running your web services on the same host as mssql?  If so, confirm that your mssql server is set to bind to IP addresses (if you want access from the outside of that box).  If you are only able to connect via a name (as in a NetBIOS or Active Directory name), it's likely you are connecting to a "socket" or named pipe.

I found with MS-SQL Server 2008 on Windows Server 2008 R2 that I needed to use the MSSQL Server name. The servers hostname or IP address would not work ( with or without port, and/or SQL instance name, etc.) After trying several combinations, this is what I found worked in my configuration:

host-ip: 10.4.2.50
host-name: mssqlhost.mydomain.org
mssql-server-name: foo-sql
mssql-instance-name: MSSQLSERVER
database-name: mydb

<?php

$dbh
= new PDO("sqlsrv:Server=foo-sql,1433;Database=mydb", $user , $pass);

?>

The above worked with and without port (,1433). I also noticed adding the instance name (MSSQLSERVER) after the server name with a slash (\), as in "Server=foo-sql\MSSQLSERVER" caused a failure to connect.

Adding the backslash solved the problem for me.

Here's my functioning localdb connection string:

new PDO("sqlsrv:Server=(localdb)\\v11.0 ; Database = my_db ; AttachDBFilename = C:\Users\user\my_db.mdf", "", "");
