connection-string

I'm about to begin my first project with java Let me tell how I used to handle these things... So far now, I've been workin on asp with a com+ componente made with VB6. The component is registered via the com+ administration console with a domain user, something lile my_company_domain\my_app_account The components reads the configuration from an udl file, configured to access the DB with integrated security. I invoke the componente from asp with server.createobject, the component runs with the specified domain account, and so every DB access runs with this account... What I like from this

I have a team of three developers, two of whom use a standard local test database, one of whom uses his own database and there is also a server environment with a production database and a testing database. This amounts to multiple connection strings required. The web.config file periodically gets updated and keeps having to be changed by each developer when a source control update is performed, as well as the fact that sometimes a developer accidentally checks in his personal web.config file change with his connection string, which temporarily interrupts us after running a subsequent update

I have a 3 tiered project. 1) Project.Data (EDMX file) 2) Project.Model (POCO's) 3) Project.Console (Console app) I have added the connection string into the Project.Console . <?xml version="1.0" encoding="utf-8"?> <configuration> <connectionStrings> <add name="ProjectEntities" connectionString="metadata=res://*/Project.csdl|res://*/Project.ssdl|res://*/Project.msl;provider=System.Data.SqlClient;provider connection string="Data Source=PC\SQLEXPRESS;Initial Catalog=Project;Integrated Security=True;MultipleActiveResultSets=True"" providerName="System.Data.EntityClient" /> </connectionStrings> <

My goal is to use a LINQ Where query on the ConfigurationManager.ConnectionStrings collection in a console application (assume a fresh .NET 4.5 console application with a System.Configuration reference added, and a correspodning using statement). I started with this, which does not work : var relevantSettings = ConfigurationManager.ConnectionStrings.Where(s => s.Name.StartsWith("Xyz")); It tells me that: The type arguments for method ' IEnumerable<TSource> System.Linq.Enumerable.Where<TSource(this IEnumerable<TSource>, Func<TSource,bool>) ' cannot be inferred from the usage. Try specifying the

I have a simple WebJob which I wish to test with the Azure Storage Emulator. I currently have set the AzureJobsRuntime and AzureJobsData set to use development storage as follows: <connectionStrings> <add name="AzureJobsRuntime" connectionString="UseDevelopmentStorage=true;" /> <add name="AzureJobsData" connectionString="UseDevelopmentStorage=true;" /> </connectionStrings> The webjob is very simple: public static void Main(string[] args) { JobHost host = new JobHost(); host.RunAndBlock(); } public static void Process([QueueInput("queue")] string input, [BlobOutput("containername/blobname")

Please read in the entirety before marking this as duplicate. In a project that I am debugging I receive a SqlException saying the following: Additional information: A connection was successfully established with the server, but then an error occurred during the pre-login handshake. (provider: SSL Provider, error: 0 - The wait operation timed out.) This occurred during a debugging session where the previous session executed only seconds before without problem. Since the initial exception, I am unable to connect to the database server in this project. The exception is thrown on the

So I am using connection strings in my web.config using SQL authentication. Of course people say this could be a vulnerability as you are storing password in plaintext. However, from what I know, IIS never serves web.config, and web.config should only have read access to administrators and IIS anyway. So if the hacker has gained access to the webserver, then it won't matter what encryption I use because the private key will be on the webserver. Wouldn't encrypting connection string be classified as security through obfuscation? Is it worth encrypting web.config connection string and storing
