ProviderIncompatibleException was unhandled by user code

I have just got the latest code from SVN and I got the above error when I logged into my application. The exception message was:

An error occurred while getting provider information from the database. This can be caused by Entity Framework using an incorrect connection string. Check the inner exceptions for details and ensure that the connection string is correct.

The inner exception says:

The client was unable to establish a connection because of an error during connection initialization process before login. Possible causes include the following: the client tried to connect to an unsupported version of SQL Server; the server was too busy to accept new connections; or there was a resource limitation (insufficient memory or maximum allowed connections) on the server. (provider: Shared Memory Provider, error: 0 - The handle is invalid.

The issue is, none of these suggestions seem like the cause. Any idea what might cause this?
