Problem with Login through SQL Express with ASP.Net

G

Good afternoon

I have a 2003 server standard edition running IIS6 and hosting a
asp.net (.net 2) application.

We have installed SQL Express on that server and registered asp in a
database.

I have set my localsql string to point to that database, with my sa
password for testing purposes.

Using forms authentication, we can easily create users now. They get
registered in the users and membership tables fine.

However when I try to login, it says " Your login attempt was not
successful. Please try again.". However, if I look in the database,
the field for the number of bad attempts remains at 0.

I tried with hashed passwords and clear passwords.

The web.config is set to a login provider that points to the right
localsqlserver, and the application name is set so let's say
"applicationlogin" (I can't mention the name of the app yet but it's
not important). The machine.config points to the same. When I create
users, they get created with application "applicationlogin".

How can I get a more descriptive error than what I get now?

It doesn't help me troubleshoot much..

Thank you
