When I am trying to brows Asp.netAjax live demo in my machine it displays error message: the error is like this
A network-related or instance-specific error occured 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 Interface, error: 26-Error locating server/Instance specified)

Is there any means to fix this problem?

Hi,

Under the "Live Demos" folder you will find "StartExamples", click on that to execute your demo version. Or else register version again from "Documentation" folder by click on "Install_RadControls.For.ASP.NET.AJAX".

Hi,

The most probable reason for getting this error is that your SQL instance name is different than the one specified in the used connection strings. You should check connection strings in the web.config file and change the Data Source to point the name of your SQL server instance. For further references about this common SQL error, you could check the following MSDN blog post.
