Rad Controls Courseware 8.5

[Chris]

Hi,

I'm trying to do the above courseware section - ASP.NET Membership.

I have followed all the steps before it to setup the Project, setup the ActiveSkillUI Database, run the ASP.NET Wizard on the DB Server, setup the connection strings and roles, but when I go to do step 6 on Pg 198 I do not get an option to set Authentication Type. Instead I get:

"There is a problem with your selected data store. This can be caused by an invalid server name or credentials, or by insufficient permission. It can also be caused by the role manager feature not being enabled. Click the button below to be redirected to a page where you can choose a new data store.

The following message may help in diagnosing the problem: Could not load type 'ActiveSkillUI.Global'. "

The only thing that I have done different from the instructions is that the database is on a different server to the one that I am using for Telerik.

Any suggestions?

Thanks,
Chris.

Hello Chris,

Can you confirm that the connection string is poper and the database is accessible? Configuring the ASP.NET Membership is a standard procedure so I am not sure what could be causing the issue. Can you try following the steps again and see if you get the same error?
