Hi

I have created a website using Login pages.
Everything works fine. I have created an Administrators role and added a user to that role.
I can log in to the site ok.

I have deployed the site to my local machine running IIS but when I try logging in to the site
I get 'Your login was not successful please try again.' Does anyone know why this works
in Visual Web Developer but not under IIS?

Many Thanx

Andy

What was the Virtual Path proeprty of your web site project in VWD? Was it / or a project name? Maybe it was something like /WebSite1 in VWD and now you're running a root based site on IIS? That would create a second application within the database (one for /Webite1 and one for /) with the user mismatch as a result.

And did you create the users after you have deployed the site?

Also, check your permissions. Make sure that IIS is allowed to write to the App_Data folder.

Cheers,

Imar
