I am new to Azure.
While editing the SQL API connection, mistakenly I added the wrong username and password for SQL server authentication.
can I revert this change to the previous version?
as I don't know the username and password for the database.
any help will be appreciated! Thanks in advance.
One of the workarounds is to change your connection directly from the connector itself.
While if you are trying to get the credentials from SQL Server, you can reset the password in the overview pane of your SQL Server.
and to know your username, in the same overview page you can find it under Server admin

I am new to azure .
I have got a new website to work on its hosted on azure, I needed to find out the connection string .so that i can connect to the database in sql server.
The connection string is something like this
"Encrypt=True;TrustServerCertificate=False;Data Source=------------;Password=XIPG7UYJBOYS----------".
The password given is encrypted i guess . I am unable to login with it.
Is there any way to retrieve the plain password.
Any help would be appreciable.
Thankyou
The password should not be encrypted and you should include it in the Azure Web App's configuration section. There is a section there for connection strings.
If you need to store it in more secure place then you should use Azure Key Vault
How can I change the password of user azure in MySQL in App?
What I have tried so far:
There are two configuration files named MYSQLCONNSTR_localdb.txt and MYSQLCONNSTR_localdb.ini. I have changed the default password there, but nothing happened. Also, if I change the password using PHPMyAdmin, then I cannot login again to PHPMyAdmin (for reasons unknown to me) using the new credentials.
Quoting the doc:
Can I customize the database, username and password to be used?
Yes. The connection string is stored at
D:\home\data\mysql\MYSQLCONNSTR_localdb.txt. The application (such
as wordpress) reads from this file for what database, username and
password to use. This also applies to what to backup and restore
provided by Azure WebApps. If you want to customize the database,
username and password, after you have created a new database, add new
username or update password, simply modify
D:\home\data\mysql\MYSQLCONNSTR_localdb.ini, remove
D:\home\data\mysql\MYSQLCONNSTR_localdb.txt and restart the WebApps.
I have a SQL database on my Azure server that I connected to in Excel. When I try refreshing the connection in Excel it requires me to enter my login/password for the server:
Can I remove this requirement? I want to share this file with friends, but don't want to require a password.
Thanks!
All,
I have a workbook that contains an ODBC connection to an SQL Server and dumps the data from the query into a Table (VBA calls it a ListObject). Right now, everything is using Windows Authentication.
Now I am trying to get other users to be able to use this workbook. My DBA has decided it would be best to simply not use a windows account anymore, but instead to create a service account with password.
I have tried adjusting my workbook connection's authentication settings to use this service account (tried SSO and none with the actual authentication piece being in the connection string), but it still seems to be using windows authentication. Is there a way to direct Excel to use a service account instead of the Windows credentials?
Thanks.
Figured it out. Apparently, if you have TrustedConnection=yes in your connectionstring, it will ignore the UID and try authentication with Windows :-) Deleting that from my connection string seemed to work :-)
I set up an RCS server (hybrid ircd). I would like to secure it with authentication. But my user credentials are stored in a database table.
1- I cannot find anywhere documentation on how to configure the "auth" section of httpd.conf.
2- From what I understand I could use an authentication service (identd) but I don't understand how this works, how to set it up, and how to configure this to use a database table for credentials.
Please give me a hand with this.
By using InspIRCd instead, I can use this SQL authentication module:

Problem solved!
