Re: Unable to connect to SQLExpress Remotely - no matter what

Sorry, I forgot to note that there is nothing unusual in the error log.
When I compare it to another machine's log, it looks identical to all
extents and purposes.

Do you have SQLBrowser enabled and running? what's the error you get when
connecting and are there errors put into the SQL Server error log file when
you try to connect?

Hi all,

I've been fighting to get sql server express on my machine to be
accessible remotely. I've tried many times and quadruple checked all
of the instructions in KB article:
http://support.microsoft.com/default.aspx?scid=kb;EN-US;914277

I have even performed a full uninstall and reinstall, then applied KB
914277 (once again).

I've turned off all firewalls and virus scan.

I've compared to other machines that work.

We've installed to other machines and followed KB 914277 and they've
worked.

Nothing helps. My Sql server express instance remains unavailable from
other machines.

Any ideas? I've spent a whole day on this and I'm frustrated as can
be! I need this machine to work as moving to another machine for my
work is not practical.

Thanks!
