How can I point my Rockit to another server?

2

I have installed the Rockit SDK and setup a local database.

But I'm running a database on 3essentials server I'd like to use for testing,instead of the localhost database.

How can I get my Rockit setup to use that database?

I thought I just needed to edit the web.connectionstrings.config file like this:

 add name="RockContext" connectionString="Data Source=vserverXXX.3essentials.com;Initial Catalog=DatabaseName; User Id=DatabaseUSerNAme; password=DatabaseUserPassword;MultipleActiveResultSets=true" providerName="System.Data.SqlClient"/
    

But that doesn't seem to work.

    Have you backed up the local version and migrated the backup to the 3E sql?

    I believe 3E has the MS SQL ports blocked in the Plesk by default.  You'll probably need to enable them - but I don't recommend leaving them that way permanently.
