greetings all, (again blasted newsreader killed my initial epic, email post
numero 2)
I have a dev box(XP) that I am developing an ASP.NET 2.0 application .. am
trying to use membership features .. have set up my local box secured a
directory dropped in an ASP:LOGIN web control added some users set all the
right properties and I have a nicely login secured web app that runs just
dandy on my dev box.
However when I try to deploy to my 2003 server all looks fine but I cannot
log in "Your login attempt was not successful. Please try again."
A blog search has people talking about naming the application .. so using
the IIS management snap-in I have given my web site an application name ("grizzly")..
the blogs say this should be reflected in the ASPNETDB, aspnet_applications,
applicationName .. however this applicationName remains "/" instead of "grizzly"
which is what I named the web application. And to make things even more confusing
some blogs say this is the desirable behaviour.
I am now lost as what to do next.
I tried to add users and set security on my directory on the 2003 machine
but can't find an equivalent tool like the one under VS2005 website asp.net
configuration .. and dont know if this is even the way to do it.
The 2003 server windows event logs are full of "Membership credential failures"
but the fact that I dont get a screen full of stacktrace makes me think it
can at least see the ASPDBNET database nestled away in the App_data directory
Now I'm quite stuck and looking for a push in the right direction ... it
certainly looks like I should be able to create my site on my dev box and
simply publish it to the 2003 server
Is there a "complete and utter idiots guide" to setting up this kind of website
publishing
