I have Passed 2 day's to solve this error of database information on my installation wizard then i found the easiest solution of it.

I've already installed SQL SERVER MANAGEMENT STUDIO 19 in my device. That's why i don't know that username and password i was passing as per the documentation https://docs.dnncommunity.org/content/tutorials/server/setup/run-installation-wizard/index.html Database Username as: MyDNNSQLUser and Password as: MyDNNSQLUser insted of passing Database Username and Password : sa and sa@123

I Recommed you to prefer this doc https://www.dnnsoftware.com/docs/administrators/control-bar-to-persona-bar.html if you're begginer for this.

Thank You...

just because you are writing wrong server name! mostly you should delete "." before "/" mark like this : localhost\sqlexpress not localhost.\sqlexpress

if you have already installed the database then go to SQL server and select Server Name = .\sqlexpress and open it. Once it opens, go to Security=>Logins=>Right Click on sa and select properties. It will open a dialog. Select Status=> and check Login Enabled.

This occurs if you try to install DNN using SQL Express, but you don't have SQL express installed, or you don't have it installed with the default instance name.

You can do one of the following things.

1) Install SQL Express 2) Connect to a different database server.
