I recently bought the book titled "Beginning ASP.NET 2.0 with C# - 2006" and I followed all the steps in installing everything, but I got 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)

Im not sure what this error means and the book never mentioned about troubleshooting this error. Im using the latest Visual Web Developer Express edition. Please let me know how to solve this error. I'm new to ASP.NET.


Thanks in advance!
