I want to fetch the currently running connection string in my web form. Currently my application is getting logged out and i am able to log in only after restarting the IIS.

What I have tried:

I have set multiple connection strings in web.config file.
<pre> <add name="MyConnectionString" connectionString="Data Source=BA_DB_SRV\BAS_DDS;Initial Catalog=DDSEDGE_ADIB_DEV;Persist Security Info=True;User ID=DDS_USER;Password=password1#;" providerName="System.Data.SqlClient"/>
    <add name="MySybaseConnectionString" connectionString="Provider=XXXXXXXX;Data source=XX.X.X.XXX:XXXX;Initial Catalog=XXXXX;User ID=XXXXXXXX;Password=XXXXXXXX"/>

Are you disposing everything related to the database that implements IDisposable?

There is no such thing as the "currently running connection string".

Whatever connection string is being used is determined by your own code. Where you have "MyConnectionString", or whatever names you've given them, references in your code is what determines which string are being used.

I've got a site running at work that uses four connection strings, all pointing to different databases that the app uses for various operations.
