I'm using Visual Studio for the Mac, and I'm receiving the following error message:

I previously had this working. The code is same. Three things changed: My OS was updated from 10.11 to 10.12; Xcode was installed; and, since there are sass files, I used npm start on the files (probably should have confirmed it was working before doing so).

I suspect my connection string is the issue. Here it is:

<connectionStrings>
    <add name="ProjectTestingConnection" connectionString="Server=tcp:testserver.database.windows.net,1433;Initial Catalog=ProjectTesting;Persist Security Info=False;User ID=ProjectTestingWeb;Password=kZ>N4?q>*.;MultipleActiveResultSets=False;Encrypt=True;TrustServerCertificate=False;Connection Timeout=30;" providerName="System.Data.SqlClient" />
    <!--<add name="ProjectTestingConnection" connectionString="Data Source=10.10.18.159;Initial Catalog=ProjectTesting;User ID=ProjectTestingWeb;Password=pr@jectte$ting" providerName="System.Data.SqlClient" />-->
  </connectionStrings>

I'm trying to view it locally. Again, I had it working 2 days ago. I've tried some of the suggestions in other posts with no success. The last one involved changing the brackets (>) in the password, as it was suggested that could cause a problem - didn't fix anything, so I put it back.

How can I troubleshoot this?

You've probably already done this, but did you install HomeBrew and then install ssl. Here is the link https://www.microsoft.com/net/core#macos
