Starter KIT Problem

[Zamolxe]

In VS2005 Beta the oersonal web kit is available, I have loaded and
CTR+F5 the I closed the page and tryed to add a user as it says in the
doc, the page is loaded and after I click the Security tab this error
is shown:
"There is a problem with your selected data store. This can be caused
by an invalid server name or credentials, or by insufficient
permission. It can also be caused by the role manager feature not being
enabled. Click the button below to be redirected to a page where you
can choose a new data store.

The following message may help in diagnosing the problem: Exception has
been thrown by the target of an invocation."

How can I FIX THIS?

What type of database are you using? Microsoft Access? SQL Server?

If SQL Server, you may have to "hijack" (aka edit) the connection string so
it is not using the WIndows Authentication. Reason: Anon sites use the
windows anon account which does not, by default, have acess to the server
(and should not). With SQL Server 2005, you can relax this a bit by usign
sprocs that the anon account can hit (no, I am still not overly thrilled
about this, but it is better) and run the sproc as a more priveleged account.

With Access, it may be the location of the database, esp. if you are playing
around with Windows Server 2003.

Either way, you have to look at the code. If you have done everything drag
and drop, the info will be placed in the ASPX tags.

Is the Starter Kit from VS2005 the personal website one.So it uses SQL
Server, the SQLServer 2005 that comes with the VS2005 installation!

And the problem is that after compile, I have done how it says in doc,
"In the WEBSITE Menu form VS click on ASP Configuration(I think)" a new
page is loaded and after I click the security tab to add a user the
error appears.

This could be from the con string?
