Hi, yes I was able to get past this issue,

 

I edited the JDBC URL and added below additional KV pairs

jdbc:sqlserver://IP:Port;databaseName=dbname;selectMethod=cursor;encrypt=false;trustServerCertificate=true

 

Hope this helps

Your solution is right:

jdbc:sqlserver://IP:Port;databaseName=dbname;selectMethod=cursor;encrypt=false;trustServerCertificate=true

I resolve my issue, thank a lot
