Login failed for user 'NT AUTHORITY\ANONYMOUS LOGON' Possible Connection String Issue?

4

I'm attempting to deploy my first MVC application and I keep running into issues revolving around connecting to my sql server database. My current problem is that when I try to publish the site, I'm greeted with: SqlException (0x80131904): Login failed for user 'NT AUTHORITY\ANONYMOUS LOGON'. What I'm not sure of however, is if this is my main issue or just a symptom of a different problem all together. I think the issue has to do with my connection strings (although I certainly could be wrong about that), which I've tweaked about 20 different ways. My most recent attampt to get it to work looks like this:

<add name="DefaultConnection" 
     connectionString="Data Source=*ip address*;AttachDbFilename=C:\*full path*\aspnet-SourceMvc-20130301025953.mdf;Initial Catalog=aspnet-SourceMvc-20130301025953;Integrated Security=True"
     providerName="System.Data.SqlClient" />

<add name="StqmContext"
     connectionString="Data Source=*ip address*;AttachDbFilename=C:\*full path*\Quotes.mdf;Initial Catalog=Quotes;Integrated Security=True"
     providerName="System.Data.SqlClient" />

I've spent all day researching the issue, which seems pretty common, but they all seem to offer different solutions...non of which have worked so far.

Some additional information about the application: It's an ASP.NET MVC 4 application. The database was constructed using the Entity Framework Code-First method and I'm running SQl Server 2012, Enterprise ed. on Windows Server 2008 R2. The application was originally developed on my Windows 8 machine using Visual Studio 2012 Ultimate, and once I finished it, I moved it to my work machine with Windows Server 2008 R2 and am trying to publish it in Visual Studio Express 2012 Web Developer ed.

On a side note, how do you open a database that was created using code first in the sql server management studio?

Thanks in advance to anyone who can help.

If you intend to use integrated security you need to turn impersonation on:

<identity impersonate="true" />

Otherwise add username and password to the connection string:

Data Source=myServerAddress;Initial Catalog=myDataBase;User ID=xxx;Password=yyy;

Integration tests are passing but in debug mode your getting login failed for user 'NT AUTHORITY\ANONYMOUS LOGON', then I'd be adding authenticate to the Web.config:

<system.web>
    <authentication mode="Windows"></authentication>
