Using VWD Express 2008, GoDaddy Hosting, SQL Server, ASP.Net VB
I am very new to ASP.Net and have been working on a site and at one point, everything worked properly on local server. However, I have uploaded the site to GoDaddy hosting and the log-in function of the site does not work. I have been trying for a long time to figure out how to get this to work properly, however I have been unsuccessful. I continue to get an error page with the following:
Server Error in '/' Application.
A network-related or instance-specific error occurred while establishing a connection to SQL Server. The server was not found or was not accessible. Verify that the instance name is correct and that SQL Server is configured to allow remote connections. (provider: SQL Network Interfaces, error: 26 - Error Locating Server/Instance Specified)
