Hi<br />
<br />
I am trying to connect to a Google Cloud SQL database using the following connection strings and am getting the following errors:<br />
<br />
Server=173.194.240.189;Dat<wbr />abase=test<wbr />db;User Id=root;Password=xxxx;<br />
&quot;Could not open connection&quot; or similar.<br />
<br />
Server=173.194.240.189\sac<wbr />e-sql:ener<wbr />gy;Databas<wbr />e=testdb;U<wbr />ser Id=root;Password=xxxx;<br />
&quot;Connection string not valid&quot;. &nbsp;I think this is a step closer to working.<br />
