    Umbraco 5 - Where is the connection string

    Hi all,

    I have installed Umbraco 5, and need to change the connection string from the default one I entered during install and for the life of me I can't find it anywhere.

    I've googled around and can't find anything so I've come here for some help!

    The connection string node in the web.config is empty but the site is working off the default database, am I missing something?

    Thanks,

    Kevin

    It's in the web.config in your root\App_Data\Umbraco\HiveConfig folder.

    That's awesome guys, thanks so much! I didn't have that file added to my solution so I obviously couldn't find the connection string. First post on here and quick response, awesome.
