C# - Optimal Database Connection String For High Traffic Connections?
Mar 14, 2011
I just want to know, What parameters or attributes should be taken in connection string so as to handle high traffic enterprise applications? Like in general we use server, initial catalog, userid, passwd. Some times we add timeout , and in some scenario pool etc. But i don't know what attributes should i take in as my common practice apart from above.
I'm wondering should i make it in PHP or ASP.NET/C#. Website contents might grow really fast because it is expected there going to be daily/continuous posts from users. Its an interactive website that has to login, post, check replies and private messages without any advanced/complex features.
What would be good/scalable user session alternative in following scenario:
users don't have to have cookies enabled URL query string restriction of 255 characters is imposed lot of GET requests (no hidden form fields)application runs on serveral servers (web farm) some users connect over proxy (same IP) users connect over HTTPS 50 000 concurrent users
i want to know if the only way to get information from database and transform them into objects is with a datareader or with a dataadapter and them looping throw the datarows, cause i have a lot of records in the table and i have to find the fastest way to do it. (like 10,000,000 records).
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?
i have a web application that use a MySql DataBase. In a page, i have used the sqlDatasource control. The problem is that the conection with the database doesn't closed and i have a lot of open conections until show me the error that says me that the conection pool is full.
i have create users and rolls and all thing work very good on my computer but after upload view exception

I need a connection string to connect the microsoft 2003 database with my ASP.NET webserviceWhen just making a website I used to use the following connection statement

Now as I am using a webservice the Server.MapPath function is giving an error

To give some background details, I have created a website for a friend that has a few pages that require a database in the background. I've used Visual Studio templates for most of it, so there's the standard ASPNETDB.MDF file that's created for users and groups, a login page and a page to view and manage those users etc etc. The login page uses the standard controls for logging in, retrieving lost passwords and so on. Being standard controls, by default they get the connection string from the web.config file. Upon attempting to upload the site to my host (1and1.co.uk in case anyone else has any dealings with them) I discovered that storing the connectionstring doesn't work. 1and1 support say that the sql databases can only be accessed using scripts like this (this is an example of theirs):
<html> <title>Queries from the MS-SQL database with ASP</title> <body bgcolor="FFFFFF"> <h2>Query from table <b>products</b> with ASP</h2> <% Set conn = Server.CreateObject("ADODB.Connection") conn.open "PROVIDER=SQLOLEDB;DATA SOURCE=mssqxxx.1and1.com;UID=dboxxxxxxxxx;PWD=xxxxxxxx;DATABASE=dbxxxxxxxxx" 'This code block will create a recordset Set rs = Server.CreateObject("ADODB.Recordset") SQL = "select * from products" rs.open SQL, conn 'will iterate to display the records got from the database While Not rs.EOF response.write(rs("id") & " " & rs("price")) rs.MoveNext Wend 'closes the connection rs.close conn.close Set rs = Nothing Set conn = Nothing %> </body> </html>
So my question, is it possible to get the standard asp.net controls to access a database through a script like this?

I am retrieving connection string based on value stored in cookie.NowI am making crystal report. I cannot hard code server credential. I have to get these credential from connection string from web.config. so that i can pass these credentials to my crystal report .

I have a very basic web site that uses a standard login control. It was original built using ASP.NET 2.0, and when I preformed a few site improvments, VS 2010 upgraded the site to version 4.0. Locally, everything is fine. But live, everything is working except the login authentication. All other pages that use the database work fine.
does the upgrade process affect the database? As this is the only thing I've not replaced on the live server.
The error I get with the login is:
The SSE Provider did not find the database file specified in the connection string. At the configured trust level (below High trust level), the SSE provider can not automatically create the database file Any thoughts?

I have a database on Go Daddy and my VS2008 app can not access it via web.config connection string. Of course runs great locally in development. I copy/pasted the connection string information from Go Daddy exactly into my web.config file. Web site runs fine on the web but when I try to Login at my login page, i get :The SSE Provider did not find the database file specified in the connection string. At the configured trust level (below High trust level), the SSE provider can not automatically create the database file.
