SQL Server 2008 R2 Setup Error - is not a valid login or you do not have permission

This time i had face another one issue. When I was trying to install SQL 2008 R2 enterprise edition on my laptop i got below error.

is not a valid login or you do not have permission | MS SQL Server 2008 Express


A couple of days ago I bought a virtual server from Godaddy and the first application than I have to install was MS SQL Server 2008 R2 Express. But something was wrong, every time I tried to install SQL Server 2008 express I had the same error message is not a valid login or you do not have permission.?





TITLE: Microsoft SQL Server 2008 R2 Setup
------------------------------
The following error has occurred:
'' is not a valid login or you do not have permission.
------------------------------
This error message was meaningful, because I installed it using my account with has administrator access.
I tried to remove and reinstall SQL Server, I tried different versions of SQL Server, but nothing helped.
But finally I found a solution how to avoid this error message is not a valid login or you do not have permission
By default godaddy virtual server has the same name as user account and this was the reason of error message.
I renamed my server and error disappeared and I was able to install SQL Server Express without errors.

Previously I was Explained about the  Difference between Convert.tostring and .tostring() method Example  ,   Reasons to use Twitter Bootstrap , How to Register AJAX toolkit in web.config file in asp.net a) Using Post Method b) Using Of Session . c) URL Encoding & decoding process . d) Using Server.Transfer() instead of Response.Redirect() method (1)Use a form and POST the information. This might require additional code in source pages, but should not require logic changes in the target pages (merely change Request.QueryString to Request.Form). While POST is not impossible to muck with, it's certainly less appealing than playing with QueryString parameters. (2)Use session variables to carry information from page to page. This is likely a more substantial effort compared to (1), because you will need to take session variable checking into account...

ASP.NET Routing

ASP.NET routing enables you to use URLs that do not have to map to specific files in a Web site. Because the URL does not have to map to a file, you can use URLs that are descriptive of the user's action and therefore are more easily understood by users. The ASP.NET MVC framework and ASP.NET Dynamic Data extend routing to provide features that are used only in MVC applications and in Dynamic Data applications. For more information about MVC, see ASP.NET MVC 3 . For more information about Dynamic Data, see ASP.NET Dynamic Data Content Map . In an ASP.NET application that does not use routing, an incoming request for a URL typically maps to a physical file that handles the request, such as an .aspx file. For example, a request for http://server/application/Products.aspx?id=4 maps to a file that is named Products.aspx that contains code and markup for rendering a response to the browser. The Web page uses the query string value of id=4 to determine what type of c...
