Hi,

I restored a new AXDB on my dev system to test certain data related issues of other system.

I changed web.config file in AOSService\WebRoot\ folder and pointed it new AXDB.

My question is, When I synchronize database using Visual Studio, How does it know that it should synchronize to the new DB i restored and not the default one which I was using before on my dev system? Does Visual studio knows that I changed the config file in Webroot folder?

You need to close all clients, stop AOS service, close visual studios sessions and then you should be able to rename that DB.

I did try renaming the newly restored DB but somehow SQL wasn't letting me rename it saying it is in use somewhere...God knows where. Hence I had no choice but to modify web.config file.
