[Solved] MVC Example - exception in SQL ?

[Rick]

Hi, looking forward to playing with the MVC extension!  Installed as per instructions, opened in VS2010, no prob.  Started looking around:
a) is VERY slow .. could this be cuz VS2010 has client script debugging enabled?

b) exception thrown:

System.Data.SqlClient.SqlException was unhandled by user code
  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)
