Answer 1

This one had me stumped for a long time too. It appears that the connection string naming convention takes precedence over Database.DefaultConnectionFactory.

Could you try renaming the connection string in the web.config?

from

   <connectionStrings>
       <add name="ReCouponContext" connectionString="..." />
   </connectionStrings>

to

   <connectionStrings>
       <add name="ReCoupon" connectionString="..." />
   </connectionStrings>

and then change

var factory = new SqlConnectionFactory(ConfigurationManager.ConnectionStrings["ReCouponContext"].ConnectionString);

to

var factory = new SqlConnectionFactory(ConfigurationManager.ConnectionStrings["ReCoupon"].ConnectionString);
