Double-check the username and password for typos. Use SQL Server Management Studio (SSMS) to connect using Windows Authentication first. If successful, it confirms the server is accessible. Then, attempt SQL Server Authentication, carefully verifying the credentials. Consider resetting the password if unsure.
