ODBC error while connecting to the database: 28000 -> [Microsoft][ODBC SQL Server Driver][SQL Server]Login failed.

I received following error while connecting to a server. The connection cannot be completed because the remote computer that was reached is not the one you specified. This could be caused by an outdated entry in the DNS cache. Try using the IP address of the computer instead of the name. Found that there was a static entry in DNS for an old server which was already decommissioned. Hope this helps

In our XenApp 6.5 HRP 4 Farm  ,we had 1 server behaving oddly Somehow it always showed load of 20000  (licensing) Error during login:  "Citrix XenApp is unable to retrieve the license server location" I tried a lot of things like recreating LHC Restarting server a couple of times Editing License server configuration using Role Manager However it Still kept staying on Load 20000 In the end i had to export the following Keys from a working XenApp Server and import it in the affected one , since the problematic server was missing these keys. [HKEY_LOCAL_MACHINE\SOFTWARE\Policies\Citrix\IMA] [HKEY_LOCAL_MACHINE\SOFTWARE\Wow6432Node\Policies\Citrix\IMA Hope this Helps
