问题
I restored a MSSQL backup to SQL Server Express in a Windows 7 virtual machine under Virtualbox. I am attempting to connect to this SQL Server instance from the host (Mac OS) using a user inside the imported database that has credentials to connect. The virtual machine is configured to use a Host-Only adapter. SQL Server express is running inside the VM at WIN7VM/SQLEXPRESS, port 1433.
I am able to connect to Apache in the VM on port 8080 from the Mac host without a problem. I can also telnet into the SQL server at port 1433 from the Mac host, using the host-only IP address (192.168.56.101).
What I am unable to do is connect to SQL server from Navicat in MacOS, or remotely using PHP. Here is what I have tried:
- Disabled Windows Firewall
- Configured SQL server port setting to use 1433
- Enabled SQL server authentication
- Enabled TCP/IP in SQL Server
- Enabled remote connections to SQL server
I am trying to connect with this info:
- Host/IP address: 192.168.56.101 OR 192.168.56.101\SQLEXPRESS (have tried both)
- Port: 1433
- Database: MyDatabase
- Authentication type: Basic
- Username: username
- Password: password
What am I missing here to be able to remotely connect without any issues? Thanks in advance!
回答1:
I believe you need to use a Bridged Adapter - rather than a Host-Only adapter. A Host-Only adapter does not use the physical NIC - so that is probably the issue here. I have encountered the same issue before. Using a Bridged Network connection on both the Host and the Guest - will mean that both are on the same network. Assuming the firewall are not blocking port 1433, you should be able to connect without issue.

It turned out to not be a Virtualbox issue, but a SQL Server authentication issue.
The user I was trying to connect with had access to a database, but did not have a corresponding SQL Server Login.
