Answer 1

This means that your web server can't connect talk to the SQL server. Are you sure that the IP is correct, and that the SQL server is configured to accept remote connections over IP?

Can you connect to the database server using SQL Management Studio, using the same username, password and IP address that are in your connection string? Is your application retrieving the correct connection string from web.config?
