DBConnections.config
This file should reside in the AGRIS\bin folder and should already be configured for AGRIS since it is required for AGRIS to run on MSSQL. Connections for the Audit databases (connection names CulturaAudit.CulturaAudit and CulturaAudit.Accelerator) must be added. There are many variations of the dbConnections.config. Below we have provided some examples. Please contact your system administrator or database administrator for assistance.
Below you will see an example of dbconnections.config. Lines beginning with <!-- are comment lines. These are example connection string lines.
The items that are in blue can be changed to support your specific configuration. Please do not change any other areas.

SQL Server Agent Service
The SQL Server Agent Service is the process that makes sure the changes tracked by CDC are written out properly. Make sure this service is running or Audit will not be able to find any of your changes.
