Connection Mystery

I am having trouble connecting to an SQL Server from an ASP.NET pagewritten in C#. I have reduced the code in my page to this:
public void Page_Load( object s, EventArgs e ) {

SqlConnection conn = new SqlConnection( "Server=server;User ID=user;Password=pass;" );
conn.Open();

}
and I get the following error:

System.Data.SqlClient.SqlException: SQL Server does not exist or access denied.

Thisworks for other server/user/pass except the one I am having troublewith. The SQL Server is using SQL & Windows Authentication. I amable to connect from the machine that is running the webserver viaosql, ODBC, and MS Access using the same arguments (server, user, andpass), so I know that the SQL server does exist, and the User/Passwordshould give me access.
Does anyone have any ideas why thisisn't working or what ASP.NET is does differently from the other accessmethods? Any ideas are greatly appreciated.
Thanks,
Mark Daneyou havent specified what database to connect to..check out thiswebsite for connection strings|||I have tried it with and without using a database name in theconnection string. It does not work either way.
I have tried a variety of connection strings options but none of thecombonations seem to work. However they work connecting to adifferent SQL Server, which makes me think that it is something withthis specific SQL Server. However I am able to connect to theserver through osql, ODBC, or MS Access all without a problem, so Idon't belive it is a problem with the SQL Server accepting the login.Since it doesn't seem to be a problem with the connection stringattributes, or the server, I am not sure what could be causing it.
|||are you sure you have the values properly like the server name, database name uid, pwd all correct ? and can you connect to the sql server from query analyzer using the same credentials ?|||

Try this url for the database permissions setup, if no money transactions passes through the site. Hope this helps.

The info in this link uses the Master as the default database for your Asp.net account permissions. If you are still having problems with that, then it could be a bug. Hope this helps.

|||I found out what the problem was. The SQL Server I was trying toconnect to didn't have the latest service pack installed. Iupgraded the SQL Server to SP3a and now it works fine.
