Problem with Web Site Admin Tool: Unable to connect to SQL Server database
I'm getting the following error when I run the Web Site Admin tool against a SQL Server 2000 server (not the express server) with all the provider tables installed in the Northwind database. The error occurs after I bring up the Tool, click Security, then click on either Create/Manage Roles or Create/Manage Rules.
Unable to connect to SQL Server database. at System.Web.Administration.WebAdminPage.CallWebAdminHelperMethod(Boolean isMembership, String methodName, Object[] parameters, Type[] paramTypes) at ASP.security_roles_manageallroles_aspx.BindGrid() at ASP.security_roles_manageallroles_aspx.Page_Load() at System.Web.Util.CalliHelper.ArglessFunctionCaller(IntPtr fp, Object o) at System.Web.Util.CalliEventHandlerDelegateProxy.Callback(Object sender, EventArgs e) at System.Web.UI.Control.OnLoad(EventArgs e) at System.Web.UI.Control.LoadRecursive() at System.Web.UI.Page.ProcessRequestMain(Boolean includeStagesBeforeAsyncPoint, Boolean includeStagesAfterAsyncPoint)
I've tried this using both Windows Impersonation (I'm dbo in this database) and using an explicit login using a SQL Server account I had created for id="ASPNET", with permissions granted to ASPNET. IOW, I've tried both these connection string settings:
<connectionStrings>
<add name="MySecuritySettings" connectionString="User ID=ASPNET;Password=ASPNET123;Initial Catalog=Northwind;Data Source=spri11u11002"/>
Source=spri11u11002"/>
</connectionStrings><connectionStrings>
<add name="MySecuritySettings" connectionString="Integrated Security=SSPI;Persist Security Info=False;Initial Catalog=Northwind;Data Source=spri11u11002"/>
</connectionStrings>Here are my membership/role manager settings from web.config:
<roleManager enabled="true"/>
<membership defaultProvider="CustomizedProvider">
<providers>
<clear/>
<add name="CustomizedProvider" type="System.Web.Security.SqlMembershipProvider" connectionStringName="MySecuritySettings" applicationName="/MembershipAndRoleSecurityTest" minRequiredPasswordLength="6" minRequiredNonalphanumericCharacters="0"/>
</providers>
</membership>

Hi
I assume that you've ran the aspnet_regsql.exe and it created the tables succesfully.
So you should add also a provider for roles. E.g:
<roleManager enabled="true" defaultProvider="SqlRoleProvider">
<providers>
<clear/>
<add name="SqlRoleProvider" applicationName="TestItAll" connectionStringName="XXXXX"
type="System.Web.Security.SqlRoleProvider"/>
</providers>
</roleManager>
Hope this will help.
Best Regards
