This is a Technical Instructions topic


The application server INI File contains two entries necessary to control the access to the database.

Example database connection string

ConnectionType=MSSQL

ConnectionString=ADO?AuxDriver=SQLMCLI10.1;Server=DBServer1;Database=BurnsInjury;UserID=burndbuser;Password=XXXXX

or

ConnectionType=MSSQL

ConnectionString=ADO?AuxDriver=SQLNCLI10.1;Server=DBServer1;Database=BurnsInjury;Integrated Security=SSPI


Alter the values in the string above to reflect your own installation as detailed below.

Driver and AuxDrivers

The driver and auxillary driver is the ADO?AuxDriver=SQLNCLI10.1' part of the connection string. In the above example it is ADO?AuxDriver=SQLNCLI10.1.1 which uses the SQL Native Client.

The following are your choices of drivers depending on what libraries you have available on the server:

  • ADO?AuxDriverSQLNCLI10.1 - SQL Native Client
  • ADO?AuxDriver=SQLOLEDB.1 - ADO DB Driver
  • AnyDAC?AuxDriver=MSSQL - No external driver needed, AnyDAC is a fast, built in SQL Server driver that can be used at any time

If you change any settings in the AquilaServer.ini file, the AquilaServer service must be restarted for the changes to take effect.
