Hallo,With the mysql role provider thats to help you with the login and so you have to check in with the asp.configuration tool Thats on the edit menu or one of the top menus.Should be the last or second last item on the menu. It will show you if you have the providers loaded up. May need to force the web.config to ignore the default connection settings and check your mysql database. <connections> <remove/> not sure if its accurate </connections> Then make sure the provider tables exist in your mysql database to add edit delete users,roles etc Usually bout 11 - 12 tables that are need to allow for authentication The other reason could be that your missing the classes for authentication from your application, so it doesnt know how to authentcate. Can look scott gurie and this links http://msdn.microsoft.com/en-us/asp.net/aa336558.aspx This ones abit of a run down on the authentication model used in the asp.netpages.Can change it to suite any other database http://www.c-sharpcorner.com/UploadFile/jmcfet/Provider-basedASP.NET10162006... http://www.4guysfromrolla.com/articles/052009-1.aspx Make sure you however confirm with the asp.configuration tool that its detecting the mysql authentication files.Should have a testing tab to show that it can connect to using the mysql provider otherwise could still be checking on the default sql server database for authentication. 2009/8/26 Edwin Wambua <eddwak@gmail.com>
Thanks Kenoti. I had edited the web.config files and machine.config again and the annoying errors went, except one.Now the issue left is with the mySqlRole provider.It cant load the file yet I've edited the machine and web configurations to include the role provider.I'll try your suggestion.
P.S. This is one of the reasons why I prefer php to asp.net or anything in that .NET framework.
