The connectionStringName in line 234 must match the name of your connection strings - In this case it presumably doesn't.  If you renamed the connection String then you need to update all the references in web.config.

Thanks for the reply,  I fixed it.  My dumb mistake. Two things---Forgot to uncomment the sql connection statement and typo in username to sql server.  Your response got me to look in the right place.
