Configure the file Web.config

 Previous pageReturn to chapter overviewNext page

The file web.config holds the connection information to access the UserManagement database(s) and the visibility settings for the wizards in UserManagement Admin Web. Every database connection has a connection profile (GeoUserManagementConnection).
From a technical point of view the connection is established via the file GeoProject.dll.

 

Note that you need at least a text editor capable of editing UTF8 text files for editing web.config, e.g. UltraEdit32, PSPad or Notepad++. Do NOT USE NOTEPAD instead – the web.config file would get corrupted then.

 

Note: The configured database user has to be granted at least Read (Select) and Write (Insert, Update, Delete) rights at the tables of the UserManagement model.
