Hi All,

I am getting errors while connecting to SCCM Console. I cannot connect to the Site.

I have checked everything and all logs, all the logs show same error

* [28000][18456][Microsoft][SQL Server Native Client 11.0][SQL Server]Login failed for user '. SMS_SITE_COMPONENT_MANAGER 12/14/2022 8:41:39 AM 4528 (0x11B0)
* [28000][18456][Microsoft][SQL Server Native Client 11.0][SQL Server]Login failed for user '. SMS_SITE_COMPONENT_MANAGER 12/14/2022 8:41:39 AM 4528 (0x11B0)
*** Failed to connect to the SQL Server, connection type: SMS ACCESS. SMS_SITE_COMPONENT_MANAGER 12/14/2022 8:41:39 AM 4528 (0x11B0)

I have reset the site server also, I have checked SQL and SCCM Permission also, all looks good.

Kindly suggest.

Thank You.

Regards,
Trinadh Kola.

    For those coming to this thread in 2026, check your ODBC Driver version. I had this same issue occur when I downloaded the version 18.7.1.1 of ODBC Driver 18. Rolling back to 18.6.2.1 resolved my issue. Here's an article link that explains the issue: https://techcommunity.microsoft.com/discussions/configurationmanager/latest-odbc-driver-18-for-sql-18-7-1-1-breaks-sccm-site-server--sql-connectivity/4555392

    I had the same problem

    The above did not work, but the fix was easy. Repair the Configuration Manager Console by going to :

    Control Panel/Programs and Features/Microsoft Endpoint Configuration Manager Console

    and choose Repair.
