How to set a proper connection string for Azure database?

问题

I have an azure website and database. I'm running an ASP.NET MVC 4 / EF 5 app localy and trying to put some data to the azure database before to deploy the app. But I have a TargetInvocationException : {"The ASP.NET Simple Membership database could not be initialized. For more information, please see http://go.microsoft.com/fwlink/?LinkId=256588"} Keyword not supported : server

This is the connection string that I get from my azure dashboard :

    <add name="myconstring" connectionString=Server=tcp:myserver.database.windows.net,1433;Database=mydatabase;User ID=cdptest@myserver;Password=******;Trusted_Connection=False;Encrypt=True;Connection Timeout=30;" providerName="System.Data.EntityClient" />

I tried this I got "Keyword not supported : data source"

    <add name="myconstring" connectionString="Data Source=myserver.database.windows.net;Initilal Catalog=mydatabase;User ID=cdptest@myserver;Password=*****;Trusted_Connection=False;Encrypt=True;Connection Timeout=30;" providerName="System.Data.EntityClient"/>

The following works for me:

 <add name="coupdpoAPEkowswAEntities" connectionString="Server=tcp:myserver.database.windows.net,1433;Database=mydatabase;User ID=cdptest@myserver;Password=*****;Trusted_Connection=False;Encrypt=True;Connection Timeout=30;" providerName="System.Data.EntityClient"/>

Use Server instead of Data Source, and specify the protocol and the port, and use Database instead of Initial Catalog

OK the providername was wrong. System.Data.SqlClient was excepted as this is a code first app model. I probably got System.Data.EntityClient from another app with Model First or Database First...
