I want to ask you about a problem.
I have developed a windows application that uses a SQL Server database with SQL Server authentication (with a username and password) to log in.
The database is located on a local server which uses the same network as my company computers.
Now I have published the application and installed it on my computer (where I developed it and in which I also have the SQL server installed).
I also installed the application on the computers of some colleagues who do not have any program installed (they do not have Visual Studio or SQL Server installed).
When I try to log in to the application from my computer everything works fine. (I can enter in application and database communication works very well).
But when I try to log in to the application from other computers (with the same user which I used on my computer before), it does not work.
I get this error:
Named pipes provider error 40 could not open a connection to SQL Server
I did these steps on the server where the application is located as:
1.Enable TCP / IP in SQL Server Configuration
2.Open Port in Windows Firewall 1433
3. Allow remote connections to this server
Can you help me with any suggestions?
