My site's login / membership doesn't work on the live server, when hosted. I get this infamous 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: SQL Network Interfaces, error: 26 - Error Locating Server/Instance Specified)
My connection string is as follows:
<add name="ApplicationServices" connectionString="data source=.\SQLEXPRESS;Integrated Security=SSPI;AttachDBFilename=|DataDirectory|\aspnetdb.mdf;User Instance=true" providerName="System.Data.SqlClient" />
What am I doing wrong?
Thanks for any help.

You need to grant Azure services access to your database.
Locate your server.
Click on "Show firewall settings"
Set "Allow Azure services and resources to access this server" to ON.
migration is added and the connection string is correct but the database is not created

Try changing your connection string as:
"Data Source=.\SQLSERVER;
Initial Catalog=Final_BD;Integrated Security=True"
providerName="System.Data.SqlClient"

Anyone can help me with this? I am using SQL Management Studio 2012. I already tried opening sql server manager but I dont see any SQLEXPRESS server in there. Im just using localdb. Sorry guys im just a newbie in web development.
This is my connection string
add name="MyCon2"
connectionString="Server=Villar-PC\Justin;Database=DBNAME; Integrated Security=true;>
Run services.msc and check sql server (or express depending on what you have) service. It should be running. If not, start it and check.
Also check if the database you are mentioning exists
Edit: If you are using sql localdb, you can refer to http://www.asp.net/mvc/overview/getting-started/introduction/creating-a-connection-string for the connection string
<add name="MovieDBContext"
connectionString="Data Source=(LocalDB)\v11.0;AttachDbFilename=|DataDirectory|\Movies.mdf;Integrated Security=True"
providerName="System.Data.SqlClient"
/>
Basically I need to test a database on an external server (the model matches the model of my local test database).
Here is the connection string I have so far:
<connectionStrings>
<add name="DefaultConnection"
connectionString="Database=QualityLinkBuilder;Server=12.345.678.901.\SQLExpress;uid=RemotePc\Administrator;pwd=MyPassword;"
providerName="System.Data.SqlClient" />
</connectionStrings>
When I attempt to connect now I get the generic error:
The underlying provider failed on Open.
Inner exception 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)
It should be just Server=12.345.678.901\SQLExpress in your connection string ( replace "\SQLExpress" with the relevant SQL Server instance name on the external server )
I have set up my web.config like this:
<add name="DefaultConnection" connectionString="Data Source='C:\Users\Marilou\AppData\Local\Microsoft\Microsoft SQL Server Local DB\Instances\v11.0\authentication.mdf';Initial Catalog=javacert;Persist Security Info=True;User ID=sa;Password=yyy" providerName="System.Data.SqlClient" />
But I am getting the message:

Seems like you are using LocalDB. From this MSDN article (http://blogs.msdn.com/b/sqlexpress/archive/2011/07/12/introducing-localdb-a-better-sql-express.aspx), the connection string is as follows :
Data Source=(localdb)\v11.0;Integrated Security=true;AttachDbFileName=C:\MyData\Database1.mdf".
