Error with DB connection to SQL Server or Azure SQL for Event Log Sync

You may see an error when attempting to use the direct DB connection option with our EventLogSync (SIEM connector) application. Here is one item to look for.

Check to be sure that you have double quotes around the -dbconnection "data source" content, i.e.:  

 

eventlogsync -ln=Login_Name -lp=Login_Password -dbconnection="Data Source=Server\SQL_Instance;Initial Catalog=SurePassDB_202x;User id=SIEM_User;Password=ThePassword;Integrated Security=false" -targettype=e -systemname=TheSQLServer  -maxsyncitems=100 -runoption=o
