How To Change Configuration Tool Connection String
Jan 10, 2011
how can I change ASP.NET Configuration tool-s connection string name? (Which connection string will ASP.NET Configuration tool will use)
I'm learning ASP.NET and everywhere and in book that I'm reading now theres connection string named: LocalSqlServer.
I want to use my local sql server database instead of sql express to store Roles, Membership and other data.
I have used aspnet_regsql.exe to create needed data structures in my database. after that I changed my web.config to look like:

I have a entity data model generated from a database schema. Now that database is no more physically available, I want to generate a new database with the same schema model. I'm able to generate the tables from the script that the Entity Frame work generates for me.
I have two problems. I'm not able to generate the stored procedures from EDM. Second, I'm not able to change the connection string to the new database. Do I have to re-generate the edm from the new database that I'm trying to create?

I have created a ASP.NET 4 application in VS 2010 using Silverlight and RIA Services.
After finishing the first release on my development pc, I'm starting some deployment testing in a server in my local network.
After sucessfully published the web application using the Visual Studio FTP publishing option, I notice two strange things:
1 - On the IIS properties of the website I have uploaded my files to, you can see now a connection string, named as LocalSqlServer that points to the aspnetdb.mdf database file. I had a look in the web.config file and I could not find this connection strind defined there. So, where is it located? Where did IIs got it from?
2 - As the aspnetdb.mdf file is not deployed withtin the web application and I a musing SQL express in my testing server, where can I drop the mdf and ldf files so they can be attached when the applicaiton runs? I know I can perform an attach operation using management studio,but I'm wandering where is the DataDirectory folder ASP.NET looks for to attach it at runtime?

I have a page in asp.net (web forms) that up until now only had one database for data.
So all the controls that require something from the database use a datasource and the same connection string.
<asp:SqlDataSource id="SqlDataSource1" runat="server"
ConnectionString="<%$ ConnectionStrings:DefaultConnectionString %>"
ProviderName="System.Data.SqlClient"
SelectCommand="SELECT ... ">
</asp:SqlDataSource>
Up until now I only needed one connection string since I had only one database but this has changed since I want some users to connect to database A and others to database B What would be the correct way to go about it?

I have a solution which uses Linq to SQL Data Classes to acced the db. I have a project for my domain objects in my solution, which is a class library and has the dbml file. When I set up the dmbl using the wizard, Visual Studio created anapp.config file on that project with the connection string. It also creatting asettings file with the same info. I've noticed that if I change the connection string in the settings file, the app.config gets updated, which is the expected behaviour.
However, I'm having a problem when I deploy my web site to the production server. I already set the app.config file's Build Action to "Content", and also set Copy to ouput directory to "Always". Nevertheless, when I install the web site and change the connection string in the app.config file, it still takes the old connection string, so obviously I get an error. I've found that it only works if I change it with in Visual Studio and then compile, but of course that's not an optimal solution, because any change in the production db server would mean I have to change my project's assembly, thus generating a new version.
What do I have to configure so that the assembly takes the connection string form my app.config file directly after I deploy?

I have been preparing for a conversion of an old application to an ASP.NET webapplication at beginning of the year. Generally, the development version of the webapp will also be the webapp that goes into production. We here make "clones" of the database server, assign new name, etc, which is then used for development, training, and so on without any threat of changing data on the real db (sql server 2005). I know it is possible to have more then one connection string in the web.config. My question centers around if there is a simple method for allow multiple connection strings and pick the one that is to be used for dev, production, training, and so on? I originally thought about constructing some type of admin form that the connection string can be selected from.

I have an app that is a bit old and will eventiall be rewritten but until I get the time it needs to continue to be patched. THe app is desgined broken into three layers (Web, DAL, BLL) The web site uses the DAL.DLL and BLL.DLL and the Website has some dataaccess and the sonnection string is saved in the web.config. For the DAL it is stored in the app.settings. Is there a way for the DAL to use the connection string that is stored in the Web.config even thought it is in DLL for the production site?

I was reading about how it is a good idea to encrypt the connection strings for security purposes. I came up with a solution that I think may be somewhat elegant, but there may be big flaws in my thinking. I am overworked and tired :)
Basically I have a setting in the web config EncryptConnectionString. In the Global.asax. Application_Start I am checking this in the config. If it is true, I am encrypting the connection strings. If it is false, I am decrypting the connection string.
Question #1 Is there a better way?

I finished my first asp mvc project and want to post it to a iis7/sql2008 server.I published the site just fine and migrated the sqlexpress database to sql2008 with no problems.However, when I run the program it still connects tp sqlexpress and opens a user instance.For the life of me I cannot get the connection string correct:
The current sring is:
<add name="AlertEntities" connectionString="metadata=res://*/Models.Alert.csdl|res://*/Models.Alert.ssdl|res://*/Models.Alert.msl;provider=System.Data.SqlClient;provider connection string="Data Source=.SQLEXPRESS;AttachDbFilename=|DataDirectory|Alert.mdf;Integrated
Security=True;User Instance=True;MultipleActiveResultSets=True"" providerName="System.Data.EntityClient" />
</connectionStrings>
How do I change this to make it see the sql2008 database?

I am trying to change the connection string for the registration form in VS 2010.
This is because it links to the local database in the App_Data which I need it to link to another database. I have changed the connection string in the webconig file and this works file for other forms I have created but does not allow me to create new users.
I have used the ASP.net 4.0 template when creating this website.

I have 3 Databases that I am pulling data from for my web site. 2 of the databases are in the same SQL instance, however the 3rd one is in a different SQL instance. Both of the SQL instances are installed on the same server, one of them is a Named instance and the other is installed under the default instance. So my connection strings look something like this:
<add name="ABCConnectionString" connectionString="Data Source=BobDataDB;Initial Catalog=Bob;User ID=*******;Password=*********;" ProviderName="System.Data.SqlClient"/>
<add name="BCDConnectionString" connectionString="Data Source=BobDataDB;Initial Catalog=Sue;User ID=*******;Password=*********;" ProviderName="System.Data.SqlClient"/>
<add name="EFGConnectionString" connectionString="Data Source=Bob;Initial Catalog=Sue;User ID=*******;Password=*********;" ProviderName="System.Data.SqlClient"/>
I'm in the process of moving this application from the Development Server to the Production Server when I noticed this issue. Previously the ABC and BCD connectionStrings where pointing to a different server and instance. So my question is how do I get this wo work with the server names being the same but the instances being different?

Some databases that my application has to access have their name according to the current year because the ERP we work with creates a new database every year, so, now it's working with the 2010db database. There are two options (as far as I know) for the ConnectionString property of a SqlDataSource: 1) hard-code it or 2) pick it up from the web.config file.
I don't want to change manually the connection string every year, so, how can I solve this? I would need to take the value of Now.Year either in the hard-coded ConnectionString or for the Web.Config ConnectionString, but I don't know how to do that.
