I am trying to publish a website using ASP.NET MVC3 EF and CODEFIRST with a
SQL Server 2008 backend. On my local machine I was using a
sql express db for development, but now that I am pushing live, I want to use my hosted production
database. The problem is that when I try to run the application, it is still using my local db connection string. I have completely removed the old connection string from my web.config file and am using the <clear /> tag before creating the new connection string. I have also cleaned the solution and rebuilt, but somehow it is still connecting to the old db. What am I missing?
This is the new connection string:
<connectionStrings>
<clear />
<add name="CellularAutomataDBContext"
connectionString=" Server=XXX;
Database=CellularAutomata; User ID=XXX; Password=XXX; Trusted_Connection=False"
providerName="System.Data.SqlClient" />
</connectionStrings>
