Solidworks Electrical - SA Password Does Not Match Prerequisite

Hello

We want to test Solidworks Electrical. Having a license available on our shared license pool, I wanted to install it on my user's computer.

But impossible.

During the installation, I get an error message when trying to install the SQL Server.

The SA password does not match the prerequisite. Our Password Policy is 12 characters. I think the default SA password shouldn't be 12 characters long.

Can I change the SA password for the Solidworks installation? Or can you manually install the product without going through the Solidworks ISO and thus be able to specify a password.

Thank you in advance.

Therefore, you must manually install the SQLServer located in the PreReq folder of the Solidworks installation. By specifying a combined authentication, WIndows/Local. So we can set the SA password.

Then restart the installation of SW Electrical normally, and indicate the SQL instance.
