I wasn't sure what to title my post, if you have a better idea, feel free to edit the title.
I have not used SQL Alchemy before and the documentation that I have looked at located in the following places, is not helpful:
Here is the code I am using:
import sqlalchemy as sal
from sqlalchemy import create_engine
#Here are the parameters I am using:
- server = 'Q-20/fake_example'
- database = 'AdventureWorks2017'
- driver = 'ODBC Driver 17 for SQL Server'
- trusted_connection='yes'
DATABASE_CONNECTION = 'mssql+pyodbc://@server = ' + server + '/database = ' + database + '?trusted_connection = ' + trusted_connection + '&driver=' + driver
engine = sal.create_engine(DATABASE_CONNECTION)
All of that seems to work fine without any problems; however, when I add this line:
connection=engine.connect()
I get the following error message:
sqlalchemy.exc.OperationalError: (pyodbc.OperationalError) ('08001',
'[08001] [Microsoft][ODBC Driver 17 for SQL Server]Named Pipes
Provider: Could not open a connection to SQL Server [53]. (53)

instance-specific error has occurred while establishing a connection
to SQL Server. Server is not found or not accessible. Check if
instance name is correct and if SQL Server is configured to allow
remote connections. For more information see SQL Server Books Online.
(53)')
I am not sure what is wrong with what I am doing, does anyone have any suggestions?
What I have tried so far:
- I have confirmed that SQL Server is configured to allow remote connections. I did this check by following the instructions here
- Removing the "@" sign before the server, but this just generated the same error message.
