thank you for answer

Solution

  • First check SQL Server Agent is running. enter image description here

    Most of the times it means that the connection string is incomplete. If you're not using Windows authentication, you need to provide uid=YourUserName; Password=yourpassword;. Check the logins in sql server db (Navigate to Security > Logins).

    Otherwise try specifying Server name inside the connection string. If you have a named instance then you should set it like this i.e Server=localhost\sql2019

    And also InitialCatalog is the name of the db. Is it "DefaultConnection"?

    Also take a look at the properties in your db. enter image description here
