Hi Will -
It should automatically pick up the correct ${dsn} value from your config
file, and it sounds like you're using CS 1.2.
The only other thing I can possibly think of is the hyphen in your
environment names. I really doubt this is it, but if the environment names
are somehow being evaluated along the way, CF could be trying to evaluate
two variables rather than treating it as a string. I really doubt this is
it, but you could try that.
Also - have you checked to make sure that any other properties in your
environment config are being propagated down into the rest of your Mach-II
app? It could be an issue with environmentConfig as a whole, and not just
CS. Probably worthwhile to eliminate any other possible problems.
