Why my backup setting refuse to connect? (Educational version)
Cubit Estimating Management Console (open as administrator)-->Configure-->create-->Default (127.0.0.1)-->next (shows the database refuse the connection.)
Hi Yingxin,
We would need to gather more information about the trouble to be certain, however, it sounds like the trouble may just be some missing information.
The default option will enter most of the required details, but it will not add in the database password for example, and so will not be able to complete the process successfully.
That said you should not need to do this with the student version as the database would be installed locally, and the connections automatically created.
The student version would also not be able to connect to Cubit Select which is a separate product to Cubit Estimating.
If you have experienced some trouble with getting the student version up and running, i would highly recommend opening a support ticket so that we can help you resolve the trouble.
Thanks Michael, I will figure out. :)
