Having Difficulty Running An Application Built With Visual Studio 2017. by wapSmart(op): 5:08pm On Apr 19, 2020
I have this Software i built using Visual studio 2017 but on sending it to another computer it is displaying

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 inheritance name is correct and that SQL SERVER is configured to allow remote connection. (provider SQL Network Interfaces, error 26 - Error locating server/Instance specified.

Note... 1. The software was built using Visual Studio 2017 and i use the inbuilt server(I did not use any SQL server software)

2. The software run smoothly on my system(the one i used in building it)

Please house, how can I resolve this issue

I'm no dot.net person, but I think you need to copy the app's database directory along with the app while transferring it to the other PC. Or you should have a function that create a new instance of the database upon installation/first run.
