  1. Open the web.config on the web server
  2. Look for the section with the connection strings
    <add name="Everest" connectionString="Data Source=127.0.0.1;Initial Catalog=Everest_Risk_Demo;Persist Security Info=True;User ID=[username];Password=[password]" ></add>
    <add name="Icarus" connectionString="Data Source=127.0.0.1;Initial Catalog=Everest_Risk_Demo;Persist Security Info=True;User ID=[username];Password=[password]" ></add>
    <add name="EverestWriteDB" connectionString="Data Source=127.0.0.1;Initial Catalog=Everest_Risk_Demo;Persist Security Info=True;User ID=[username];Password=[password]" ></add>
    <add name="EverestDocuments" connectionString="Data Source=127.0.0.1;Initial Catalog=Everest_Risk_Demo_Documents;Persist Security Info=True;User ID=[username];Password=[password]" ></add>
  3.  If there is not an Encrypt=true as part of the connection string you will need to add it seperated with a ';'.
    <add name="Everest" connectionString="Data Source=127.0.0.1;Initial Catalog=Everest_Risk_Demo;Persist Security Info=True;User ID=[username];Password=[password];Encrypt=true" ></add>
    <add name="Icarus" connectionString="Data Source=127.0.0.1;Initial Catalog=Everest_Risk_Demo;Persist Security Info=True;User ID=[username];Password=[password];Encrypt=true" ></add>
    <add name="EverestWriteDB" connectionString="Data Source=127.0.0.1;Initial Catalog=Everest_Risk_Demo;Persist Security Info=True;User ID=[username];Password=[password];Encrypt=true" ></add>
    <add name="EverestDocuments" connectionString="Data Source=127.0.0.1;Initial Catalog=Everest_Risk_Demo_Documents;Persist Security Info=True;User ID=[username];Password=[password];Encrypt=true" ></add>
