make sure, both connection strings in your web.config files are identical!

I am having a similar issue.  I am using DNN 4.8.1 and SQL EXPRESS 2005.  The web.config file has the same connection string for SQL Express and SQL 2000/2005.  All the other modules that I am using don't have any connection issues (TEXT/HTML, LINKS, FORM MASTER, SURVEY)

I tried uninstalling the module and downloading the most current version (which was the same) and re-installing but the same error occurs.

<!-- Connection String for SQL Server 2005 Express -->
    <add name="SiteSqlServer" connectionString="Data Source=sqlserver.host.com;Initial Catalog=sqldatabase;User ID=myuser;Password=mypassword" providerName="System.Data.SqlClient" />
    <!-- Connection String for SQL Server 2000/2005    -->
    <add name="SiteSqlServer" connectionString="Data Source=sqlserver.host.com;Initial Catalog=sqldatabase;User ID=myuser;Password=mypassword" providerName="System.Data.SqlClient" />
