    I couldn't connect to the SQL server at first. When I track to the conn string setting in the .config file, it say the database server is "localhost". After I changed to "(local)" it works.

    Why is it using "localhost" as the datasource, instead of "(local)"? Shouldn't localhost only be used in IIS?

    It's looking for the instance name, you can change it to the ip address:

    127.0.0.1
