Connection URl for SQLExpress database using Hibernate

I am using jtds drivers to connect to SQL Server on local using Hibernate

I can conect to server using server name: COMP6\SQLEXPRESS

Below is my connection properties in hibernate.cfg

<property name="hibernate.dialect">org.hibernate.dialect.SQLServerDialect</property>
    <property name="hibernate.connection.driver_class">net.sourceforge.jtds.jdbc.Driver</property>

    <property name="hibernate.connection.url">jdbc:jtds:sqlserver://COMP6\\SQLEXPRESS/ipms_m1_new_final_1apr</property>

    <property name="hibernate.connection.username">sa</property>
    <property name="hibernate.connection.password">xxxx</property>

Whole stacktrace

are you able to connect sqlserver database via telnet using port like : telnet localhost 1433 ??

If yes then

jdbc:jtds:sqlserver://localhost/ipms_m1_new_final_1apr

Hope this helps.

por example:

jdbc.hibernate.dialect=org.hibernate.dialect.SQLServerDialect
jdbc.driverClassName=com.microsoft.sqlserver.jdbc.SQLServerDriver
jdbc.url=jdbc:sqlserver://localhost;instanceName=SQLEXPRESS;databaseName=sirb_db
jdbc.username=abcd
jdbc.password=abcd
jdbc.initialSize=10
jdbc.maxActive=20
jdbc.maxIdle=30
jdbc.hibernate.hbm2ddl.auto=update
jdbc.hibernate.show_sql=false
jdbc.hibernate.jdbc.batch_size=0
