resetting the ASPNET account

[Guest]

Hi gemel,

I am not sure whether this will work, but try running:
C:\WINDOWS\Microsoft.NET\Framework\vx.x.xxxx\aspnet_regiis -i

This will re-register asp.net.

HTH,

For the SQL-Server, you must set a windows account for ASPNET (which doesn't
require to provide the password in the settings of SQL-Server), not a
SQL-Server account.

For the IIS and the .NET Framework, I don't know. Maybe you can try the
command « aspnet_regiis -i » :

I have been having problems connecting to my SQL2000 server through my
web application. The exception tells me that the ASPNET user cannot
logon to the SQL server. I changed the password for this account and
now the IIS process will not run because it say that the password info
is now different. I believe this information is held in the
machine.config file. Is there a way to reset this account without
having to re-install the .NET Framework?
