Hi I have configured the ActiveDirectoryMembershipProvider and ActiveDirectoryRoleProvider as is stated in:
http://world.episerver.com/en/Documentation/Items/Tech-Notes/EPiServer-CMS-5/EPiServer-CMS-5-R2-SP2/Configuring-EPiServer-CMS-5-to-Use-Active-Directory-Membership-Provider/
When I log in I get the following error:
Configuration Error
Description: An error occurred during the processing of a configuration file required to service this request. Please review the specific error details below and modify your configuration file appropriately.
Parser Error Message: Provider must implement the class 'System.Web.Security.MembershipProvider'.
--------------------------------------------------------
My web.config looks like this:
<add name="ActiveDirectoryMembershipProvider" type="System.Web.Security.ActiveDirectoryMembershipProvider, System.Web, Version=2.0.0.0, Culture=neutral, PublicKeyToken=b03f5f7f11d50a3a" connectionStringName="ActiveDirectoryProviderConnection"
connectionUsername="xxx"
connectionPassword="xxx"
enableSearchMethods="true"
attributeMapUsername="sAMAccountName" />
<add name="ActiveDirectoryRoleProvider"
type="EPiServer.Security.ActiveDirectoryRoleProvider, EPiServer"
connectionStringName="ActiveDirectoryProviderConnection"
connectionUsername="xxx"
connectionPassword="xxx"
attributeMapUsername="sAMAccountName" />
--------------------------------------------------------
Any ideas of why the error occurs? Thanks
