Visual Studio 2008 asp.net web administration>profile: "The profile wasn't created"?

A

When I ran the asp.net admin tool to setup web application settings, I get
the following notice when I went to profile and chose to use a single
provider for all features: "The provider wasn't created". To reproduce:

1. In Visual Studio 2008, create a new web application.
2. Add a web.config file if one doesn't already exist.
3. In the <ConnectionStrings> element, add a valid working connection
string. Mine works but is left out for security reasons.
4. Add the following Membership element to the System.Web element:

<membership

defaultProvider="EternityRecordsContracts">

<providers>

<add name="EternityRecordsContracts"

connectionStringName="EternityRecordsContractServerConnectionString"

type="System.Web.Security.SqlMembershipProvider, System.Web,
Version=2.0.0.0, Culture=neutral, PublicKeyToken=b03f5f7f11d50a3a"

enablePasswordRetrieval="false"

enablePasswordReset="true"

requiresQuestionAndAnswer="true"

applicationName="/"

requiresUniqueEmail="true"

passwordFormat="Hashed"

maxInvalidPasswordAttempts="3"

minRequiredPasswordLength="6"

minRequiredNonalphanumericCharacters="1"

passwordAttemptWindow="1"

passwordStrengthRegularExpression="" />

</providers>

</membership>

Replace the defaultProvider and connectionStringName to fit your instances.

5. Run the asp.net web admin tool and go to provider. Choose to use a single
provider for all features and you end up with the message at the beginning
of this message.



Is there any way to fix this?
