Am facing a problem with using SQL server 2012 along with VS 2012 ,, when I try to make new database it gives me 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: Named Pipes Provider, error: 40 - Could not open a connection to SQL Server) (Microsoft SQL Server, Error: 2)”
I've tried to install the SQL Server Express 2012 again but still the same problem.
any suggestions ?
thanks in advance .
Most Probably you are something missing in ConnectionString, might be server name
open sql server and check server name.

I have installed SQL Server (mssql) extension in my VS Code then tried to connect to SQL Server Express with ./SQLEXPRESS, master, integrated log in detail. It should work perfectly as by default there's a database named "master".
But instead I get two errors:
mssql: Error: Unable to connect using the connection information
provided. Retry profile creation?
mssql: Error 3: 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: Named Pipes Provider, error: 40 - Could not open a
connection to SQL Server)
Please can anyone help me with that?
Expecting to connect VS Code with SQL Server Express
Whenever I'm trying to connect SSMS to my computer I get this error:
TITLE: Connect to Server
Cannot connect to NUNA.
ADDITIONAL INFORMATION:
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.

The system cannot find the file specified
I'm pretty sure that my computer or server is name is NUNA but it doesn't connect and I get this error. I have tried to stop SQL Server Express in Windows Services, but it doesn't show the SQL Server Express
Did you try restart SQL Server service or try with "."?
I installed Microsoft SQL Server 2016 Management Studio on my PC, and when I try to connect to a server, it shows 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: Named Pipes Provider, error: 40 - Could not open a connection to SQL Server) (Microsoft SQL Server, Error: 53)
I don't know what should be the server name. How can I connect to a server?
Run the command SQLCMD -L in a command prompt and you will see your available server names.

I'm getting error whenever I connect to the instance(DESKTOP-0LFC1LP) on Sql Server. I'm using Sql server 2012.
I don't know what's the reason but whenever I install Sql server , It works perfectly for a day or two and after that it starts giving me this error.
I can solve this by re-installing Sql and it will work fine but again only for a day. I want a permanent solution to this. And please also tell why it works after I reinstall it?
Your help would be appreciated!
