Matt – my error is slightly different. The tcp/ip are active and enabled and SQL Services have been restarted. But my ColdFusion v8 shows this error when using the SQL Server driver. It DOES connect using the ODBC Socket, but I’d rather use the SQL Server driver. I hope you can help.

Connection verification failed for data source: rsl2
java.sql.SQLException: [Macromedia][SQLServer JDBC Driver]No more data available to read.
The root cause was that: java.sql.SQLException: [Macromedia][SQLServer JDBC Driver]No more data available to read.

Thanks Matt, solved my problem
two other problems i had (for anyone else doing this process):

i use the sa user for development, but it is disabled by default. In SQL Server Management Studio, under ’security’ and ‘logins’, double click the sa user and on the ’status’ page check ‘enabled’ for login.

But in cfadmin i still got “Login failed for user ’sa’. The user is not associated with a trusted SQL Server connection”. that was because SQL server only allows windows authentication by default. to change that, connect to the server, right-click and open the properties window, and on the security tab select “SQL server and Windows Authentication mode”

dev machine back up now…
