You need to make sure DB is not in a shared folder, is on your pc, is not read only, that you have write permissions to the folder that contains it and there is no DB already attached to service with same name. Make sure you can connect with Server Explorer window first.

Consider using SQL Server CE, if you want to work with loose DB files.

Also, make sure the file is not overwritten with each build. (Use "Copy if newer", not "Copy always".)
