Hi Robert.
Based on my experience, most of the time it’s a typo in the mws.db xml file.
Have another look at all the connection info, and check for typos.
Double check your user and pw too.
I usually double check the connection using a separate tool. Then you will know if it works in the tool, it should work for MWS.
