Most of the solutions I got from the internet are either dealing with the permissions for the service account or windows firewall that block the TCP/IP port.

You need to enable the TCP/IP connection settings by going to SQL Server Configuration Manager and you need to restart the SQL Server services to make the changes happen. After the changes, it works like a charm.
