I used the wizard and went through the steps to set it up and clicked DONE and closed the ASP.NET configuration window/wizard and the database was not created. What might be wrong here?

I am having problems getting the security.aspx to load up on my primary development computer which is using Windows 7 Ultimate and Windows IE 8. Clicking on the ASP.NET Configuration icon from the IDE in the Solution Explorer within Visual Web Developer 2008 Express Edition loads up default.aspx with no problem. But when I click on the "Security" hyperlink to access "security.aspx" I get a message along the lines of "The configured SQL data source provider is not properly configured". It goes on to state a list of potential reasons for this problem. One that includes not having the proper credentials or permissions. Im almost 100% sure it has something to do with permissions because I can't even get to the "security.aspx" page from opening a new empty project. I have recently installed Visual Web Developer 2008 Express Edition on my laptop which is running Vista with all latest updates and this issue does "not" exists. I can click the "ASP.NET" icon, load up "default.aspx" and click "Security" and it loads the page with absolutely no issues.
I have discovered a weird workaround but I don't like having to do this. If I add the following lines to my "web.config" file from any given project I can get to the "security.aspx" page without getting any SQL messages about improper configuration or permissions.
<<remove "LocalSqlServer">
<add
name="LocalSqlServer"
connectionString="data
source=.SQLEXPRESS;Integrated Security=SSPI;AttachDBFilename=|DataDirectory|aspnetdb.mdf;User Instance=true"
providerName="System.Data.SqlClient"/>
Basically, what I have to do to get to the security page to load without error is add a remove statement and then I just cut'n'paste almost the exact same connectionString from machine.config in the Microsoft.netFrameWorkV2.0.5027config directory. This does away with the "Improperly configured SQL datasource message" and gets me a new error message along the lines of "Could not create a SQL instance". My memory is fuzzy on exact error messages since Im not at development computer right now. However, when I change the User Instance attribute from true to false, then I have success at last.
Im very new to ASP.net and have no experience with it at all.Im currently developing a website,and am confused about creating users.Im using the create user wizard,everything is working fine.However,I am worried about the security of user information.I believe the user information is stored in the APP_Data folder, am I right in believing that this folder is secure?
Exactly how is the user information stored when using the create a user wizard?In a database in the APP_Data folder?Is it encrypted automatically when a user signs up?
I am working on an Ecommerce website. I have created a database using Server Explorer named 'MyTestStore' and created Tables and Stored procedures inside it.
Than I used the program called aspnet_regsql.exe (which is in:
C:windowsMicrosoft.NETFrameworkv2.0.50727) to create the membership and roles tables. And this tool created all the membership tables in the MyTestStore database. All is fine till this point.
Enabling Roles:
Now I need to enable roles, insert admin and users into this membership tables in my database. so I opened up ASP.Net Configuration Tool but when I enable and create roles it automatically creates a database called ASPNETDB under App_Data folder whereas, I want to have the roles enabled in the database MyTestStore. But it keeps creating the database ASPNETDB. How do Imap the ASP.Net configuration Tool to create and add users into my database called MyTestStore instead of that default ASPNETDB.
I built a cms system which use the aspnetdb and I made few changes on that database.I use it for login and registeration only , but today when I uploaded all the files , I realize that my hosting company use a prefix for the database name for example db1010101_*** so , is it ok to rename the database or I should create my own ?
btw I build my database on mssql 2005 and the hosting is 2000 so I will have some troubles :
I developed application with using of SqlMembershipProvider.
I want to deploy on server with SqlExpress. And I don't understand how to deploy aspnetdb database. I want to deploy aspnetdb with preliminarily defined groups. How to do it?
Ive searched quite a while to do this.. havent found any revelant answer i already have a database named GAD.MDF with tables inside. However i wanna use the membership API to use the tables generated in the aspnetdb.mdf. Is there a way to generate thoses tables in my own database and then use my database instead? cause many host only enable us to use one database.
View 4 RepliesI have a need to create a custom wizard, without using the wizard control. What I am attempting to create is something similar to this post:
[URL]
The only problem is that I need to attach CSS to the previous steps that is different from the next step, and different from the current step. So I created a <UL> for the menu, but how to dynamically attach css to the different <ul> elements and assign 3 classes: previous, current & next based on the step the user is on?
I have created the page after watching this video [URL] , but my problem is at the end after sending the email I get a blank screen. So, after I click the Finish button and how do I put in a message like "Thank you for submitting you question" ?

I get error There is a problem with your selected data store. This can be caused by an invalid server name or credentials, or by insufficient permission. It can also be caused by the role manager feature not being enabled. Click the button below to be redirected to a page where you can choose a new data store. The following message may help in diagnosing the problem:Server cannot access application directory 'C:Inetpubmyapplication2'. The directory does not exist or is not accessible because of security settings.Is my approach a resonable one and is this possible?
In one of my web app's pages, the code behind needs to grab the UserId of the person logged in, so that it can then be inserted into a table which was added to the original aspnetdb.mdf. This table contains a column with a uniqueidentifier primary key which is in direct relationship with the aspnet_Users table; however I seem to have trouble retrieving the UserId. This table contains the additional information of a user which is not included in the provider, and it has a one-to-one relationship with aspnet_Users.
I hope this makes sense. I haven't written any code for it yet; I'm only at the thinking part of this stage. But my mind keeps going blank.(perhaps I need a break from the solution???).
I am using C# in my Web app's code behind.

View 11 RepliesI am using Visual Studio 2008 Express.
I did this simple test:
I created a new Web project with a simple page that has a Log In. There were no databases in App_Data.
I used the configuration tool to create a Role and User.
I refreshed the project folder and behold AspNetDB.mdf has appeared in the App_Data folder.
I have checked the Web.Config file and there is NO Connection string to this database.
So how do I move the Roles/Users application data storage away from AspNetDB.mdf to my own database ?
I am creating a website, where my client is planning to target 1000's or user registrations with their login area etc. Is it a good idea to use role management/aspnetdb for this purpose?
View 9 RepliesI am in the begininng stages of designing (or redisigning) a site. I am using VWD Express 2010 and the project is configured for .net 4.0. I am designing it offline so its currently just on my laptop, which is also running sql server express 2008 R2.
When I ran the ASP.Net Configuration tool, it automatically created a database called aspnetdb in the app_data folder where it stores all the user and roll info. How can I use a different database that has the same schema as well as some additional tables of my own. I want to point it to mylocally running sql server.
Currently in security setting in website configuration, there us only User, Roles, And Access Rules.i want to add Groups as top level for Users. is it possible?

I built a website that tracks submissions online (SQL server express 08 edition). It has its own User table thats linked to other data tables specific to the business of the website. But I found out recently that I can save lot of time by integrating ASP.NET standard Login Controls that can automate lot of coding and make my life easier. Now since then, I added the login controls, integrated the work flow into my website (just user , role navigation so far) and noticed VS creates its own user tables , view, SPs etc. I am okay with that.I need all my submissions to be linked to a particular user that enters each sumission. Now since my user (userid) moved from my personal custom table to a standard ASPNETDB.mdf table... how do I link my original website database and tables to this Default User table / (ASPNETDB.mdf) created by VS.
