This error code happens when there is an issue with the SQL Server. This can be caused by many things such as a corrupt database, a down server, or a network issue.

1. Check the syntax of your SQL statement

The syntax of your SQL statement can be checked by using the sqlite3 command-line tool. To do this, open a terminal window and type the following command: sqlite3 SQLStatement.sql If there are any errors in the syntax of your statement, the sqlite3 command will return a code of 0x5 (SQLSTATE 42000). The error code 15404 indicates that there is a problem with the syntax of your statement.

2. Make sure the table you're trying to access exists

  1. Navigate to the database where the table you're trying to access resides.
  2. Check the table's name and description.
  3. If the table doesn't exist, create it.
  4. If the table exists but has an error, fix the error.
  5. If the table exists and is correctly configured, check the table's structure and data.

3. Check that the column you're trying to access exists

  1. Click on the table you are trying to access in the database
  2. In the table's properties, click on the "Columns" tab
  3. In the "Columns" tab, make sure the column you are trying to access is listed
  4. If the column is not listed, click on the "Add" button, enter the name of the column in the "Column Name" field, and click on the "Add" button
  5. In the "Data Type" field, make sure the column is set to "Text"
  6. If the column is not set to "Text", click on the "Type" drop-down arrow, and select "Text".
  7. In the "Sort" field, make sure the column is set to "Sortable".
  8. Click on the "OK" button
  9. In the "Databases" list, make sure the database you are trying to access is listed
  10. In the "Select" field, click on the table you are trying to access
  11. In the "Table" list, make sure the table you are trying to access is listed
  12. If the table is not listed, click on the "Add" button, enter the name of the table in the "Table Name" field, and click on the "Add" button
  13. In the "Data Type" field, make sure the table is set to "Data".
  14. In the "Sort" field, make sure the table is set to "Sortable".
  15. Click on the "OK" button

Still not working? maybe try one of these options:

  1. Verify that the user has permissions to access the table.
  2. Use a different user account that has permissions to access the table.
  3. If you're using a named instance of SQL Server, make sure the SQL Server Browser service is running.
  4. Check the firewall settings to make sure the instance of SQL Server is accessible.
  5. Try connecting to the instance of SQL Server using a different method, such as TCP/IP.
  6. Check the SQL Server error log for more information about the error.
