I get the following error and have been trying to figure out why I keep getting it.  Initially, I had placed my project under wwwroot folder and ran it under IIS and it gave this error.  Then I moved it to my local C drive and same thing.  I am sharing this project with two other co-workers and all our config files and code files are same...they don't get this error but I do.  I checked that SQL Server Client Network Utility has TCP/IP and the 'Named Pipes' enabled.  I thought maybe I have setting in the Visual Studio 2005 that I'm not aware of that's causing this problem...it can't be the server since my co-workers aren't having this error and can't be anything in the code since all of us are sharing this project through vss.  I dont' think using different version of .net framework can create this error.  I changed the version from 2.0 to use 1.1x and it gave same error... Any help would be greatly appreciated.  Thanks in advance.

I actually figured out the problem.  Under the <asp:WebpartManger> control, I had to specify Personalization-Enabled to "False"...I guess by default, if it is not set, it will be true...in that case, it'll look for a database in SQL Server 2005 which I"m not using...my database that I'm connecting to is in SQL Server 2000.  However, the only thing that is still not clear to me is that my two other co-workers are sharing the same project with me using VSS.  All their settings are the same as mine and clearly they had the WebpartManger and property for personalization was not set to false...but they did not get this error....why was I the only one getting it?  Is there another location where the personalization property can be set to false???  Thanks...

Hi,


From your description, it seems that you are using WebParts feature in your website project, right?


Generally, when you are using WebParts in your application, it requires SQLExpress database, which is a built-in database in Microsoft Visual Studio 2005. Since webparts need personalization features , and all these personalization data would be stored in database.


Besides, in webparts there are several modes, including Browser,Design,Cateloge and etc. When you are in Browser mode, the personalization feature can be set in false status. But for other modes, it requires the personalization and database support.


Also, if you want to achieve personalization on the machine with a SQLServer 2000, you can use aspnet_regsql.exe tool to convert the ASPNETDB database in SQLExpress to your SQLServer database, and change the corresponding provider to achieve your personalization.


Thanks.
Michael Jin.
