I'm attempting to run the TFSPreUpgrade tool for TFS 2015.
Here is what I type in (and I'm running this from the sql server named: sql-server-name).
tfspreupgrade estimate /targetdatabasenames:"sql-server-name;tfs-collection-name"
(The sql server is using the default instance. The tfs-collection-name is the database name on the server.)
I get the following error:
Primary log: Y:\tfs 2015\TfsPreUpgrade\TfsPreupgrade\Logs\TfsPreupgrade_Estimate
_20150817_103119.log
Execution Time: 00:00:45.7691048
TF246017: Team Foundation Server could not connect to the database. Verify that
the instance is specified correctly, that the server that is hosting the databas
e is operational, and that network problems are not blocking communication with
the server.
A network-related or instance-specific error occurred while establishing a conne
ction 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: 40 - Could not open a conne
ction to SQL Server)
Access is denied (or The system cannot find the file specified)
What am I doing wrong?
