SQL server does not exist or access denied...

Problem

You get this error when attempting to run your application:

Microsoft Internet Explorer

Unable to get record list. Unable to connect to database. SQL server does not exist or access denied.

This problem generally occurs when your application’s Web.config file has missing or incorrect database connection information. This sometimes occurs when you move your application from your development environment into your production environment.

Solution

Update your application’s Web.config file with correct database connection information.
