Anyone know how to set up an MSSQL Express database?

I tried simply uploading a working site from Visual Web Developer Express (including the database in the App_Data directory and the unchanged connection string) to my LunarPages website, and got the following error:

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)

What am I missing?

Thanks,
Dave

Hi dhawk,

I'm not sure, that express db can be uploaded to the server.

Can you create backup file in express?
