Login Controls

[Guest]

Dear Experts,

I an trying to use the Login controls in asp.net 2.0 in the Visual Studio
2005. I have created the login page as login.aspx and set the
DestinationPageUrl to ont of my webpage. I have included the Loginname
control in my destination webpage to show the current user who is logging in.
However, after I login through the login page, the Loginname control does not
show the user login name. It is empty. Do I need to configure anything in
order to show the current login user?

Many thanks in advance.

Regards,
SB

Just checking but does your web.config have profiles enabled.

<authentication mode="Forms" />

I've checked the web.config, <authentication mode="Forms" /> is not enabled.
Do I need enable it?

I've tried enable the <Authentication Mode="Forms" /> profile, but I received
the following error message:

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: It is an error to use a section registered as
allowDefinition='MachineToApplication' beyond application level. This error
can be caused by a virtual directory not being configured as an application
in IIS.

How could possibly I resolve this problem?

That means there's a conflicting instruction in the machine.config file. Are
you dealing with an ISP or is this a server that you control?

I've tried enable the <Authentication Mode="Forms" /> profile, but I
received
the following error message:

This is a server that I am controlling.
