Hi,

I am running Sitefinity 4.0 CTP on my local development machine. It is running Windows Vista Home Premium, so I don't have Windows Authentication. I am using a database from a shared host, so I am using SQL Server. I am receiving this error:

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)

Description: An unhandled exception occurred during the execution of the current web request. Please review the stack trace for more information about the error and where it originated in the code.

Exception Details: Telerik.OpenAccess.RT.sql.SQLException: 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)

Source Error:

Can Sitefinity 4 run on Windows Vista Home Premium? The database credentials and location are correct.

Hello Joseph Smith,

Please take a look at OpenAccessException where the same issue has already been discussed.
