Hello I am trying to implement standard password protection of the web pages run from production server using ASP.NET configuration tool. When I run the website from development server, no problem. The application behaves as expected. I have included the ASPNETDB.MDF file where all the security related data is stored. However, when I deploy the application to production server I get 404 error message or server runtime errors. What can I do? What am I not doing?
The ASPNETDB.mdf file will only work if you're running SQL Express, which we do not support. I recommend that you take a look at the following article however,that explains how to do this with your current SQL Database: http://support.discountasp.net/KB/a337/how-to-configure-aspnet-20-membershiproles-provider.aspx
