Deploying a website with Membership feature

How do I configure my asp.net website that is using membership and role features so that they work properly online. What is the connectionstring and where do I store it? How do I make my website connect to the database where user information is stored.

I tried to deploy one. It worked fine when on my machine, but when online, it will throw error if I try to log in from my login.aspx page or if I try to create new user. Is there any special thing I need to do?

Database

Hi,

I now have my membership database working...thanks to you guys! But my problem now is my other database on the same website is not working.

I bought one database from discountasp.net. I have deployed the asp.net membership services on that database and have also created a single table to store details from a form on my site. Now, the asp.net membership features are working but the form is not. Whenever I fill in the form and click on submit, it returns error.

 

Whats the error message? How did you upload your ASP.Net Membership/roles database to our server? Did you use the SQL Management Tool inside the control panel?

 

Please Help me!

Well, to deploy the asp.net objects on the databse, I used the asp.net aspnet_regsql.exe tool and provided the login details from discountasp.net.

After creating the asp.net membership objects on the database, I then opened the remote database through MSSQL 2008 Management Server and wrote the script to create the table for the other form on my website.

This is how I deployed everything.

 

Whats the error your form is returning?

 

A Question

Please; can anyone just show me the best pratices in passing variables in asp.net 3.5?

 

I really don't understand the question. Are you asking:

• How do I pass data from one web page to another?
• How do I pass data from the client to the server?
• How do I declare parameters in a method signature?
• How do I handle the data passed back to the server in a postback?
• How does my web application pass data to my DAL / DB Tier?

Please rewrite your question.
