NHibernate is not connecting to sql server.
- by user177883
When i set up a regular connection, it works, however when i try to use nhibernate, hibernate.cfg.xml, i m getting the following error.
Message="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=".Net SqlClient Data Provider"
What would be the reason for this and how can i resolve it ?
I doubt that it s a network or sql server configuration error.
<?xml version="1.0" ?>
<hibernate-configuration xmlns="urn:nhibernate-configuration-2.2" >
