I will get the error below randomly when I’m running an asp.net application I am working on. Usually it will happen ever 3 days or so and I am forced to restart my machine to fix it but it’s been getting worse and now a reboot dosn’t seem to fix anything. I’m running the application on my machine and doing a lot of debugging. All interactions with the db are done through linq to sql. The db is on another server that I am connecting to. Has anyone run into this before? Any suggestions?
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: TCP Provider,
error: 0 – No such host is known.)
It may be DNS, try to use some different DNS addresses. 🙂
