ASP.NET 2.0 Personalization and Membership under Windows Vista

by Charles Sterling // 1 Comments

If you are have issues getting Asp.net 2.0 membership and personalization running under Vista then you are not alone: there seems to be security issues dynamically creating the database.


Luckily the workaround is pretty straight forward, all you have to do is:


1.  Install SQL Server 2005 Developer edition


2. Create a Database


3. Run the ASPNET_REGSQL utlity 


4. Tell ASP.NET 2.0 to use this database with


<connectionStrings>


<remove name=“LocalSqlServer“/>


<add name=“LocalSqlServer“ connectionString=“Data Source=localhost;Initial Catalog=aspnet;Persist Security Info=True;User ID=sa;Password=Pwd;Pooling=False“/>


</connectionStrings>


Luckily ScottGu has documented these steps  at:
