1. Go into your SQL server enterprise manager
2. right click on your server (the topmost level)
3. on the pop-up menu, click on "configure"
4. in that box, click on the tab called "configuration"
5. scroll down to the value "user connections"
6. in the white, change this number to something larger than what it is,
something like 100.
