Calling Connection String From Webconfig File?

Jun 9, 2010

I'm using Visual Studio 2008 and SQL Server 2008 Developer to create a website.

I'm trying to test a connectino to a local database in my computer.

What I did is create a connection string in the webconfig file like this:

[Code]....

Then I want to call that connection string like this in the default.aspx.cs file I write the following code:

[Code]....

I'm not getting any error or warning in any of the code but when I run the page I throws me an error telling me:

The connectionstring property has not been initialized.

If I run with debug on it shows this:

[Code]....

Line 22 in red.

I don't know what I'm doing wrong since VIsual Studio does not tell me there is an error, it just seems like it cannot make the connection.

SQL Server :: Connection String To Connect With 2008?

Sep 23, 2010

be it's a wrong place to ask the following question. Sorry for that. Our hosting provider has recently upgraded their database server from Sql Server 2005 to 2008 and I'm getting errors to connect with remote server from my development machine. Error Message "Invalid connection". Tried to find solution on net but couldn't find it.I'm using .Net 1.1. Though we've updated versions 2.0,3.5 & 4.0 but due to some certain circumstances I've no way to update it. It's a web based project. The following connection string works fine for Sql Server 2000 & 2005 but not for 2008.<add key="ConnectionString" value="Data Source=Remote Server's domain name;Initial Catalog=database name;User ID=user name;Password=surround;Persist Security Info=True;Pooling=false;Connect Timeout=45;" />Here Remote Server's domain name indicates to remote db server like: test.mysite4now.comdatabase name for example: test_surrounduser name like test_surroundpassword: surround.Can anyone inform me what's wrong with the above connection string to connect to Sql Server 2008.

VS 2008 Can Use A Session Variable In A Web Config Connection String

Jun 16, 2010

Can you use a session variable in a web config connection string? So instead of:

Code:

<add name="ConnectionString2" connectionString="Data Source=ora;Persist Security Info=True;User ID=SA;Password=PASS;Unicode=True"

something like this:

Code:

<add name="ConnectionString2" connectionString="Data Source=" & Session(DB) & ";Persist Security Info=True;User ID=SPAR;Password=;Unicode=True"

SQL Server Express 2008 Using (local) In Connection String

May 18, 2010

Is it possible to connect to a SQL Server Express 2008 database in ASP.NET with a server name of (local) like "server=(local);integrated security=SSPI;database=DBNAME"? I'm working with another developer on a project and it's getting annoying having to have 2 different version of web.config because he is using SQL Server 2008 and (local) works, but I can't seem to get it to work with SQL Server 2008 Express locally. The database is located on the same computer as the .NET code in case that matters.

Configuration :: SQL Server 2008 - Can't Get Connection String Right After Many Attempts

Mar 8, 2011

I have a new server that I am attempting to deply my very first asp.net website on. I have installed SQL 2008 r2 and loaded my DB on it. I am able to access the server/DB through Visual Stuidio. At least I know i can call it from the webserver to my local PC.

For some reason I just cant get my we.config's connection strong right. It might even be the <provider> info that I have wrong. I am just too inexperienced to know for sure. My Web.Config is very short so I will post all of it here.

-- Code is posted at the end --

How do I modify my local project to use my webservers DB instead of the standard SQL Express DB? The only connection string

Machine.Config that points to the sqlexpress database. Again I lack the experience to know how to do this. I am using Visual Studio 2010 and SQL Server 2008 r2 on my local pc.

VS 2008 - Configuration Files - Fetch The Connection String From The Data Project?

Nov 3, 2010

I ahve a solution with a few dll projects, a winforms testbed and a WCF webservice project. In the data project, I have a base class that does the following:

public class BaseDAO
{
private const string CONNECTION_NAME = "OracleConnectionString";
protected static string GetConnectionString()
{
ConnectionStringSettingsCollection settings =
ConfigurationManager.ConnectionStrings;
string conStr = "";
if (settings != null)
{
foreach(ConnectionStringSettings setting in settings)
{
if (setting.Name == CONNECTION_NAME)
{
conStr = setting.ConnectionString;
}
}
return conStr;
}
else
{
throw new NotImplementedException("The connction string can't be found");
}
}

You might ask, why do I need to loop and check the name against a constant? Well, I have defined the connection string in the service project's web.config, but this above code always find two connection strings, one is a sqlexpress which I guess is a default database of some sort. So, to separate that one against the one I really use, I have to loop through all entries and pick out the one I plan to use. How do I prevent this? Is there a better way to fetch the connection string from the data project?

Configuration :: Encrypting The Connection String In Web.config On Windows Server 2008

Mar 30, 2010

When I try to encrypt the "connectionStrings" section in the web.config file of my asp.net web application on Windows Server 2008, I'm getting the following error:

Administration utility (2.0.50727) to install and uninstall ASP.NET on the local machine. Copyright (c) Microsoft Corporation. All rights reserved. Note: This utility has limited capabilities on the Windows Vista operating system. It is recommended that you use the "Turn on or off Windows features" option of the "Programs" component of Control Panel to install or remove ASP.NET. It is also recommended that you use the IIS Manager component or the Appcmd.exe tool to configure ASP.NET applications.

The above information is followed by the list of valid options to aspnet_regiis.exe.

The command that I've used is:

aspnet_regiis.exe -pef "connectionStrings" "C:Usersuser1DocumentsMywebsite" -prov "DataProtectionConfigurationProvider"

But, the same command is working fine when used on a Windows Server 2003 machine. The problem is occurring only on Windows Server 2008 with IIS7.

Provider Connection String Of Entity Framework Be Substituted With A DB Connection String Already Defined In Web.config?

Feb 2, 2011

I have a db connection string 'ApplicationServices' defined in the connectionString section of web.config and 3 Entity Framework connection strings which have the provider connection string attribute with the same connection string as the one in 'ApplicationServices'. Is there a way to reference connectionString in 'ApplicationServices' for the provider connection string attribute of the EF connection string in the web.config, rather than providing the connection string all over again?

DataSource Controls :: Connecting To SQL Server In Visual Studio 2008 Using Code - Error: 25 - Connection String Is Not Valid

Feb 2, 2010

Background: I use SQL server 2005 developer edition and visual studio 2008. Visual studio 2008 is running on a local machine with Vista business edition. SQL server is running on a remote server using Windows server 2003. Both computers are within the same domain.

Problem: First, I used the server explorer to connect to the SQL server. Everything works as desired. Then I write code to do the same thing. I keep getting the following error message:

A network-related or instance-specific error occurred while establishing a connection to SQL Server. The server was not found or was not accessible. Verify that the instance name is correct and that SQL Server is configured to allow remote connections. (provider: SQL Network Interfaces, error: 25 - Connection string is not valid)

However, I used the exactly identical connection string as the one used in the server explorer. So connection string should not be the problem. In addition, I tried the test code in MSDN, which tells whether my domainusername can flow the network. It turns out the user name is fine. I also went to the SQL server management studio and found the login for my computer is NVCWeihao while my computer login name is NVCweihao. I am wondering if this uppercase letter really affects the connection.

C# - Get The Connection String Value From Hibernate.cfg.xml File?

Mar 12, 2010

I'm using Fluent NHibernate and need to get my Connection String from the connection.connection_string property on hibernate.cfg.xml file to create my Session Factory:

private static ISessionFactory SessionFactory {
get {
return = Fluently.Configure()
.Database(MySQLConfiguration.Standard.ConnectionString(c => c.FromConnectionStringWithKey("MyConnStr")))
.Mappings(m => m.FluentMappings.AddFromAssemblyOf<FooMap>())
.ExposeConfiguration(c => c.Properties.Add("hbm2ddl.keywords", "none"))
.BuildSessionFactory();
}
}

I want to replace MyConnStr (that is in my web.config file) "c => c.FromConnectionStringWithKey("MyConnStr")" for the connection string from the hibernate.cfg.xml file.

I've tried use NHibernate.Cfg.Environment.ConnectionString, but it didn't work.
