Hello
I have been working on installing BugNet for days for a major software project, and I can't get it to work. My operating system is XP Pro, and I have SQL Server 2005 Express installed on it. I am getting this error:
An error has occurred while establishing a connection to the server. When connecting to SQL Server 2005, this failure may be caused by the fact that under the default settings SQL Server does not allow remote connections. (provider: Named Pipes Provider, error: 40 - Could not open a connection to SQL Server)
I think something is wrong with my connection strings but I don't know how to fix it:
Connection String for Web.config:
<connectionStrings>
<clear />
<add name="LocalSqlServer" connectionString="server=DRICKA/SQLEXPRESS;database=IssueTracker;uid=DRICKIA/Rena Smith;pwd=chair890" providerName="" />
</connectionStrings>
Connection String for Log4Net.config:
<connectionString server="DRICKA/SQLEXPRESS;database=IssueTracker;uid=DRICKIA/Rena Smith;pwd=chair891" />
I followed tips online to try to solve this problem such as going to the SQL Server Surface Area Configuration and changing the remote connection to use TCI/IP and named piples, and I enabled the SQL web browser. I also configured the firewall for sqlbrowser.exe and sqlservr.exe. Any help would be appreciated. I checked my virtual directory and it's ok I believe. I can see the contents of it when I use localhost in my web browser. Here are the errors in detail:
