Description
Hi
I am new to SQL Server. I m trying to install and configure SQL server for my nodejs app on windows 8. I followed the steps given in the getting started page
But after installing MSSQL server (Step 1.1), I tried to execute Step 1.3 which is to test the sqlcmd and log in. It failed with the error "Login failed for User sa". I skipped Step 1.2 as I already have nodejs. Am I missing something?
Thanks for your help in advance.

Research direction
Start with the linked SQL Server getting-started page, especially Step 1.3 and the sqlcmd login command, then compare it with the installation and authentication choices from Step 1.1. Done means determining whether the documented setup or the user's environment causes the login failure and recording a reproducible correction or clarification.
