I am a new SolidWorks user and just installed the product yesterday. I had an error on the installation of the electrical product, but I did a repair and that, I thought anyway, was successful. However, when I try to run electrical I get the following error messages and I am not able to open any component libraries, etc., which I assume are stored in the SQL database.

Anyone have the same problem or any ideas how to solve it?

FYI - I am running this on Windows 10 at the latest revision on an iMac using Parallels.

The first error message is:
“Cannot connect to database. Please verify connection parameters:
Database: tew_app_data
Hostname: “my computer name”\TEW_SQLEXPRESS
User ID: tew“

The next error message is:
“Database of projects is not opened. Verify your license or database version.”
