SmartConnect Login failed for user 'xxx'

Today I opened SmartConnect, and I get the message

Could not log into the SQL Server

Doh.

Creating the service account for SmartConnect was an oversight... but it happened. So I went to fix it, and didn't have a record of what I had created. And, I couldn't find anyplace to reset it.

Grrr.


“Connection could not be validated.” error message.
Adding a user-entered parameter to a SmartConnect Map
Login failed for user 'xxx'
This record is currently being edited by another user.

... and you 'll find more on the SmartConnect Menu

The connection info is stored in the C:\Program Files (x86)\eOne Solutions\SmartConnect\eOne.SmartConnect.Setup.config file, but it is encrypted.

Run

C:\Program Files (x86)\eOne Solutions\SmartConnect\eOne.SmartConnect.Config.exe and you can reset it.
