Re: Web Site Administration Tool in VS 2005 Doesn't Work



Its crummy all right.
It writes two instances of a user into a SQL2005 database. I create a user
which is fine. I add that user to a role and -- boom -- there are now two
instances of the same user in the database.

Even stranger yet is that fact that both instances of all users are being
recorded 6 hours into the future. My system time is GMT (-06:00) Central
Time so there is some correlation there but why would any canned software
take the responsibility for adjusting time zones? It just doesn't make
sense.

Your problems seems just as bad if not worse. It sounds like you are trying
to use SSE (SQL Express 2005). Running aspnet_regsql from the command line
will launch a Wizard. Did you get the Wizard? Note the Wizard will not
launch when trying to use Start > Run. Use a command shell.
