           provider=System.Data.SqlClient;
           provider connection string='Data Source=d5d3955e-1183-4e10-8892-9f9d005af0a8.sqlserver.sequelizer.com;

           Password=**;
           Initial Catalog=dbd5d3955e11834e1088929f9d005af0a8;Integrated Security=true;

Answer 1

There is seemingly some other connect string being used here. Are you setting a connect string in code as well? in your asp.net mvc project what are all the connect strings in the web.config? Just the above?

Search your entire solution for the word "server"

To add to Adam's suggestion (which is probably the answer), in your code snippet you don't have a ; after Password=** (maybe you do in the real code though). And you are also using both username and password and Integrated Security=true; which doesn't make sense to me since Integrated Security=true; means to use the currently logged on user.
