Remote Connections error

While trying to transfer my website project to another computer I am encountering an error when tryng to run the solution. It gives me a "Does not allow remote connections". Why is this when on the original computer everything worked fine.

Does the error has anything to do with SQL server?

This error is common when there is a connection problem to SQL server.

Verify your connection string.Make sure SQL server is running. Make sure you are able to connect to the database.

I think I had an error similar to this before and therefore I'll assume that your problem is like mine and is associated with SQL Server. (I thinkneutrino is of the same persuasion.)

Now if I understand you correctly, you're trying to run a project on one pc and connect to a database on another pc. Therefore I think the problem is that SQL Server is rejecting your remote connection because it's not configured to accept it! You need to allow remote connections to that server.

See this article (How to configure SQL Server 2005 to allow remote connections ).

Now.. if you're problem isn't related to SQL Server ... well.. Ignore all of the above.
