Apparently the Media Module uses the "legacy" connection string. Check your web.config file to verify that the value of the connection string in the < appSettings > node which will have the key "SiteSqlServer". This value must match that used in the < connectionStrings > node. Also, be sure that the string in the < appSettings > node is not commented out.
