Can I use Azure PostgreSQL Database (PaaS) to store Qommentary data?

Yes you can, but it requires a re-encryption of the Qommentary Database connection string.

To re-encrypt the connection string, follow these steps:
  1. Download the Qommentary Connections Manager (QCM) utililty (exe 26.5KB)
  2. Open the Qommentary Engine appsettings.json 
  3. Copy the Connection String

  4. Paste in the QCM and click on Decrypt


  5. Copy the decrypted Connection String and paste in the Encrypt section


  6. Update the Host property to Server

  7. Click on Encrypt
  8. Copy the newly encrypted connection string and paste back in the appsettings.json (replacing the old one)
  9. Save the file
  10. Restart Qommentary Engine application pool
You will now be able to connect to your Azure PostgreSQL database.
