Post by: EnSeal on June 10, 2013, 10:24:24 am

Hello All

Please I would need help on how to resolve this connection string error.

I keep getting this error

"Can not connect to database with current connection settings. Please check connection string below and retry.

Error Message:
An exception occurred while initializing the database. See the InnerException for details"

Attached is a screen shot of the error message

I assume that you have installed and set-up the SQL Server, so can yoy connect to the database using SQL Servee Management Studio, can you navigate to SambaData2 database once you are logged in to SQL Server.

If all this works then your server is running so I would check your datasource string to check the datasource points to the SQL server and the user id and password is correct.
