Microsoft OLE DB Provider for SQL Server error '80004005'

Hello Group,

I need some help in the worst way. I had a program/database I was working on a particular machine. I took all the data from there and placed it on a another machine. Now I'm unable to navigate through the web pages on the new machine. I am getting the error...

Microsoft OLE DB Provider for SQL Server error '80004005'

[DBNETLIB][ConnectionOpen (Connect()).]SQL Server does not exist or access denied.

......asp, line 19

Can you please help!!

On line 19, your connection to the database is failing. Are you on the same network segment/subnet as you previously were? What is the physical difference between the computers?|||

How are you now specifying the server name when connecting to this machine?
You'll need to allow the server port on that new machine if it's running a firewall.|||

The thing is that I'm not completely sure what the other machine had on it because they data was copied over from that machine and the machine was immediately taken away. Now I am using VMWare and virtually connected to new machine (which shouldnt be the problem). I'm not sure of any of the specs of the last machine : (|||

I'm not connecting to the old machine anymore. That machine is out of the office and no longer in physical reach.|||

Do you have the SQL Server database up and running on the new machine? Have you added the appropriate accounts and permissions for the users?|||

Enterprise Manager -> Server -> Security -> Logins
Enterprise Manager -> Server -> Databases -> Database -> Users
Enterprise Manager -> Server -> Databases -> Database -> Roles|||

Actually I was refering to that new machine. That error means that the connection to the database server was not done correctly. The reasons could be
wrong hostname being specified
firewall blocking connections
change of IP
wrong port being used or break in TCP/IP conection while accessing the database server
e.t.c
