No it won't help.Give the correct path

Look at this:
string conn = "Data Source=.; Initial Catalog=edustarsDBwithFeesPayments;User ID=sa; password=123123;";

DataSource= . ? :doh:

Give correct server address to datasource.Likewise,Database,username,password everything should be correct
and please see for more details:

FileInfo file = new FileInfo(filePath);
string script = file.OpenText().ReadToEnd();
string ServerName= "ABDUSSALAM";
Server server = new Server(ServerName);
server.ConnectionContext.ExecuteNonQuery(script);

new Server(ServerName);
in this constructor we can give two type of parameters one is connection string and one is server name

I replace connection string with Server Name ans it done the trik.
