The work around would be:
after installing SQL Server Express:
-
install SQL Server Management Studio Express
-
create your database in SSMS Express, give it a logical name (e.g.
MyAppDatabase
) -
connect to it using its logical database name (given when you create it on the server) - and don't mess around with physical database files and user instances. In that case, your connection string would be something like:
Data Source=.\\SQLEXPRESS;Database=MyAppDatabase;Integrated Security=True
and everything else is exactly the same as before..
