now Im trying to open a visual studio project , when i want to open the DB included with
i get :
Timeout expired. The timeout period elapsed prior to completion of the operation or the server is not responding.
Common reasons for this problem include that the server is not installed, the service is not started or the server is upgrading your database. If an upgrade is in process, you will be able to connect to the database when the upgrade is complete.
then i get :
The database 'C:\USERS\BSH\DESKTOP\IREAD\IREAD\APP_DATA\IREAD.MDF' cannot be opened because it is version 661. This server supports version 655 and earlier. A downgrade path is not supported.Could not open new database 'C:\USERS\BSH\DESKTOP\IREAD\IREAD\APP_DATA\IREAD.MDF'. CREATE DATABASE is aborted.
An attempt to attach an auto-named database for file C:\Users\bsh\Desktop\iRead\iRead\App_Data\iread.mdf failed. A database with the same name exists, or specified file cannot be opened, or it is located on UNC share.
** the DB i want to open is SQL 2008
