  Hi,

  You should set the default data base in DataConfiguration:

  <dataConfiguration defaultDatabase="MyDB1" />

  <connectionStrings>
  <add name="MyDB1" connectionString="Data Source=myServer;Initial Catalog=mydb;User Id=Username1;Password=password1;"
  providerName="System.Data.SqlClient" />

  <div id="DescriptionPanel" style="padding-left: 30px;"></connectionStrings></div>

  Otherwise you should specify the database conection string name:

  defaultWriter = EnterpriseLibraryContainer.Current.GetInstance<Database>("MyDB1");

  Best Regards,
