Note: Before making the below changes please backup the Web.config file.


  1. Navigate to the C:\Program Files (x86)\Vision Database Systems\Elite Web View folder.
  2. Edit the Web.config file using Notepad or text editor such as Notepad ++.
  3. Find the <connectionStrings> tag.


Sample <connectionStrings> </connectionStrings> section:


  <connectionStrings><add name="Elite_Connection" connectionString="Server=myServerName\myInstanceName;Database=myDataBase;User Id=myUsername;Password=myPassword;"></add>
<add name="RapIDSecurity_Connection" connectionString="Server=myServerName\myInstanceName;Database=myDataBase;User Id=myUsername;Password=myPassword;"></add>
  </connectionStrings>


  1. Change myServerName\myInstanceName to the name of the SQL database server (with optional instance) where the Elite cardholder database is hosted. If there is no instance name do not use the backslash character after the server name.
  2. Change myDataBase to the name of the Elite cardholder database.
  3. Change myUsername and myPassword to a SQL login account with DB_Datawriter and DB_Datareader permission on the Elite database.
  4. Repeat steps 1-3 for both the Elite_Connection and RapIDSecurity_Connection sections.
  5. Restart the IIS service to ensure the connection strings reconfiguration takes effect.
