To use the KIOSK Client with a SQL Server database, each KIOSK Client will have to be configured for that. The location of the database is set in the CardExchange® Kiosk Configuration file.
This VisitorExchange.KIOSK.exe.config file is located in the installation directory you selected during the installation, typically this would be:
C:\Program Files (x86)\CardExchange Solutions\CardExchange Gateway\ by default.
You can open and edit this file using Notepad but for files structures like these, we advice to use the free tool Notepad++. You can download a copy by CLICKING HERE
The location of the database and the settings for it are set in the section <connectionStrings> and there are three strings showing by default.
CardExchange® Visitor will always load the Application.MySettings.Database string, so instead of deleting one we can just change the naming.
•Change Application.MySettings.Database to Application.MySettings.SQLite
•Change Application.MySettings.SQLServer to Application.MySettings.Database
You can now change the server/login credentials in the connection string and your file should then look like this:
Now save the configuration file and start CardExchange® Visitor KIOSK. When CardExchange® Visitor KIOSK is starting, it will now use the SQL Server database you have just created.
