Connection string is not valid in reporting services SQL Server 2012 - c#

I am getting following error every time I try to register new user in Reporting Services Form Authentication. I don't know how to get away from it. I am following the steps from here.
Error message is:
An error occurred while attempting to add the account. 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: SQL Network Interfaces, error: 25 - Connection string is not valid)
Any solution?

Your connection string is not correct. Test it in another tool other than your program if you have doubt. First thing to check is if the server is actually accessible as the message states The server was not found or was not accessible.

Update-Database command giving error in establishing connection to the server (Code First Migration)

I created this project on my another system and completed. I used code first migration for creating database. On that system, this app was running correctly.
But now when I had transferred the project to another system, Its package manager is showing the following error :
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: SQL
Network Interfaces, error: 26 - Error Locating Server/Instance
Specified)
I tried with Update-Database -Vebrose, I observed that it is targeting wrong data source, which was in that system where I created the project. How to solve this issue?
Check if the app.config has the connection string set. It may have the connection of the "old" machine that is now unaccessible.
Is the SQL Server configured to allow remote connections?
Is the port 1433 (the SQL Server default port) open?
If you only have the text you sent in the web.config, the connection string might be elsewhere.

Server error in '/' Application .asp webforms

I've added to my .asp website a CreateUserWizard with destination page url home. After I'm launching it in Visual Studio 2013, it opens, I register, but, after a long delay after pressing sign up, it shows me this error:
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: SQL Network Interfaces, error: 26 - Error Locating Server/Instance Specified)
Should I create a database myself or how it can't locate the server?
I think that connection string for database is not correct. Try creating an empty database and add that connection string in web config.
The error is telling you it can't find the database you have specified in your connection string (perhaps a typo or an incorrect details)
this page will help you create the connection string. You will just need your server details

How to solve this error message if my network is working well

i am trying to reach a network based server program(on visual studio 2013& sql server 2012). On another machine of course. I searched that error and it says my db or server is not open to remote reaches. But i am %100 sure they are reachable.(My program's recent version is also used in my computer and it reaches db and the server.) I am sure my addresses and networks are correct and working. And also checked the ports etc. These were all i could reach. Do you have any other solution or guesses those i can try?
Thanks for your help.

Not able to see the SQL Server 2008 instance in services

I have a named instance of SQL Server 2008 called TEST on my local machine but I am not able to see the services related to that instance in Services.msc. All I can see is service named SQL Server (MSSQLSERVER). And when I try to connect to this instance using my C# application using the connection string :
Server=localhost\\TEST;Database=TESTDB;Trusted_Connection=True;
it throws me this exception :
