Possible causes include the following: the client tried to connect to an unsupported version of SQL Server; the server was too busy to accept new connections; or there was a resource limitation (insufficient memory or maximum allowed connections) on the server. (provider: Named Pipes Provider, error: 0 - No process is on the other end of the pipe.)

Could be lots of things. Are you sure your connection string is correct? Did you open a connection before trying to execute a command? Is the network down? Is the server running? Is SQL running on the server? Does the application have permission to connect to the database?

Hey, it compiles.
