Hello,

Assuming you have Microsoft SQL installed on the server:

  • In general you see this issue when you use a different name then local and have browser service not enabled. Enable the browser service for mssql and it should generally work.
  • Optionally you can have the instance name wrong (for SQL Express it usually is servernameSQLEXPRESS , or any other instance you have defined. most easy is to look it up through SQL Management)
  • Last but not least are the client connection settings in MSSQL Configuration mmc, I generally allow all 3 (enabled them all 3).

It might also be intresting for you to use our Powershell deployment script:

http://installer.solidcp.com/Files/1.0.4/Tools/SolidCP-Configuration-Tool-1.0.4.zip

This can install, configure, and secure your server + all roles chosen for you. which should speed up your deployment, but best of all also secure your server 🙂 (do note it does not yet optimize SSL, this will be implemented shortly).

Regards,

Marco
