Can you successfully connect to the db?

Could you post relevant code? And use the [code] tags!

That whole bit was all one big error. (We should get error tags!)

We had the same problem... *Very* frustrating. The above link is a hot-fix Microsoft has posted that fixed it for us. Good luck.

Were u able to resolve this issue?
I am also getting same error but its very random and there is no predefined pattern where I can conclude the root cause.
How can I determine that hot fix has already been installed on my m/c?
Any idea?
