Error: Failed to connect to the database server: SQLSTATE[28000]: [Microsoft][ODBC Driver 17 for SQL Server][SQL Server]Login failed for user 'sa'.

all the other database which were already created are showing

The server is unavailable.

Also while changing sa password from plesk i am getting following error

The test connection to the database server has failed because of network problems:Failed to connect to the database server: SQLSTATE[28000]: [Microsoft][ODBC Driver 17 for SQL Server][SQL Server]Login failed for user 'sa'.
 
Forgot to mention but also make sure you're able to connect to your database using Microsoft SQL Management Studio from the server itself.
