It looks like invalid credentials to the SQL service.  Are you (or the service process accessing the data) configured with appropriate rights to the SQL database server & database tables?

Thank you for your replies, where can i specify the sharepoint permission? i created Secure Service Application and i specified my name in the permission but its still not working, so where can i specify the sharepoint permission?

does the sql server allow connections over tcp/ip ?? it is normally turned off.

permissions will be in the web.config where your connectionstring resided.
