Hi guys,

Apologies in advance for I haven't used visual studio or tried any form of coding in a couple of years....

I'm trying to use nopCommerce to get a website going but i'm getting stuck on the first hurdle, i get an error with the installation wizard i've tried suggestions i've seen in some of the other threads in this forum but I can't fix it. I'm not sure how SQL works with localhost and what login details are required, nothing I try seems to work and i've spent a while fiddling with IIS and SQL server.

Its probably really simple and i'm being stupid but any suggestions would be appreciated.

Check that you have named pipes enabled on your sql server.

On the server running SQL Server go to Start > All Programs > Microsoft SQL Server 200# > Configuration Tools > SQL Server Configuration Manager

Expand "SQL Server 200# Network Configuration" and select "Protocols for MSSQLSERVER"

Make sure named piped is enabled (it is disabled by default).

You will need to restart SQL Server for changes to take effect.

Hope this helps,

Ben

P.S. If you are working with sqlexpress you will need to use the servername\instancename i.e. localhost\SQLEXPRESS for this to work.
