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: Named Pipes Provider, error: 26 – error locating server/instance specified)(Microsoft SQL Server)
some one who can help me please suggest...what to do now.

Well, verify if SQL Server is allowed to have remote connections.
Check your firewall to see if it is blocking connection to SQL Server.
Enable the TCP/IP and the Named Pipes providers in the Configuration Manager.

So you can login with windows authentication, but you can't with SQL authentication?
