  • Paresh,

    I am recieving the same erroe as stated above. The solution you've suggested is to enable 'named pipes' in the config manager. I have crosschecked that the 'named pipes' is already enabled on the server that keeps sending out the error, ie., "Error: 0xe8, state: 4". Any suggestions ?

    Thanks,

    SP
