[en] In certain cases, you want to access local databases from your shared web applications instead of retrieving the data from databases stored in your Document Management System or SQL database servers. This is a common scenario if you are testing your shared web applications, or if you plan to migrate your database servers.
[en] Web Printing allows you to replace the database connections without opening and editing the database connections in your shared labels or solutions.
[en] The database connection string replacement logic is defined in the DatabaseConnections.Config file. This configuration file is not installed along with Web Printing. To enable the use of the configuration file:
-
[en] Create an XML file using the following structure.
<?xml version="1.0" encoding="UTF-8"?> <DatabaseConnectionReplacements> <Replacement> <From>Data Source=mySQLServer</From> <To>Data Source=NEW_mySQLServer</To> </Replacement> </DatabaseConnectionReplacements>[en] The configuration file defines the from-to pairs using its XML structure. The
<Replacement>element contains one<From>and one<To>element. While running the web application, the "from" string is replaced with the "to" string. You can define as many<Replacement>elements as necessary. -
[en] Save your
DatabaseConnections.Configconfiguration file in the folder where the customer's Web Client is installed. By default, the location is:C:\Users\username\AppData\Local\NiceLabel\NiceLabelWebClient.-
