Hello,
For some reason, when I try to add a Blog module to a page, I get this error. The site otherwise works fine and I can add any other module without difficulty. The SQL account that DNN uses has db.owner privelages and the SQL service is running (as I said, all other modules work fine and can retrieve data).
Here is one of the errors that appear on the page after I try to add a new Blog module:
Error: Blog is currently unavailable.

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.

Has anyone else had this issue?
