Thanks Carl, I can give your error info to our IT people, maybe it will help. I suspect it is an error in the two servers connecting to each other.
When I looked at the log, I get different errors depending on if I put in a valid user or a valid password.
Here is a different variation
Jan 6, 2014 12:51:49 PM Error [ajp-bio-8012-exec-3] - [Macromedia][SQLServer JDBC Driver][SQLServer]Login failed for user 'xxxx_user'. Reason: The password of the account must be changed.
