Question

I am a newbie in ASP.net and just following Tutorials. This Particular Problem has been Giving me a Real Headache, I have developed a website in VS 2010 , used the ASPNETDB SQL server database provided by Asp.Net Login Controls for creating users and roles. Also added Some tables, After i Was Done Used the ” publish to Provider ” feature to generate the Script (ASPNETDB.MDF.sql) . I Used this Script to Generate the Database and Tables -Sql Server 2008 R2 management Studio, and Modified the web.config Like This-

<!--Connection String-->
                <connectionStrings>
        <remove name="LocalSqlServer" />
        <add name="LocalSqlServer"  connectionString="Server=AkumJamir-PC\SQLEXPRESS;Initial Catalog=ASPNETDB;Integrated Security=true" providerName="System.Data.SqlClient" />
                <add name="con" connectionString="Server=AkumJamir-PC\SQLEXPRESS;Initial Catalog=ASPNETDB;Integrated Security=True"/>
                <add name="ConnectionString" connectionString="Server=AkumJamir-PC\SQLEXPRESS;Initial Catalog=ASPNETDB;Integrated Security=True" providerName="System.Data.SqlClient" />
</connectionStrings>
<roleManager enabled="true">
        <providers>
            <remove name="AspNetSqlRoleProvider"/>
            <add connectionStringName="ConnectionString" applicationName="/"
                 name="AspNetSqlRoleProvider" type="System.Web.Security.SqlRoleProvider,System.Web, Version=4.0.0.0, Culture=neutral, PublicKeyToken=b03f5f7f11d50a3a" />
            <remove name="AspNetWindowsTokenProvider"/>
        </providers>
    </roleManager>

<membership>
        <providers>
            <remove name="AspNetMembershipProvider"/>
            <add connectionStringName="ConnectionString" enablePasswordRetrieval="true" enablePasswordReset="true" requiresQuestionAndAnswer="true" applicationName="/" requiresUniqueEmail="false" passwordFormat="Hashed" maxInvalidPasswordAttempts="5" minRequiredPasswordLength="7" minRequiredNonalphaNumericCharacters="1" passwordAttemptWindow="5" passwordStrengthRegularExpression="" name="AspNetSqlMembershipProvider" type="System.Web.Security.SqlMembershipProvider,System.Web, Version=2.0.0.0, Culture=neutral, PublicKeyToken=b03f5f7f11d50a3a" />
        </providers>
    </membership>   
    <webParts>
        <personalization defaultProvider="AspNetSqlPersonalizationProvider">
            <providers>
                <remove name="AspNetSqlPersonalizationProvider"/>
                <add name="AspNetSqlPersonalizationProvider" type="System.Web.UI.WebControls.Webparts.SqlPersonalizationProvider"
                 connectionStringname="ConnectionString" applicationName="/"/>
            </providers>
        </personalization>
    </webParts>

Now The Problem is That Works On my Development Machine But on our Staging Server, It Doesnt connect to the Database whenever i try browse to Some Pages where i have some data to be displayed from the Database Neither Does the Login Page Work.The connectionString Looks Like This in the Server:

<!--Connection String-->
                <connectionStrings>
        <remove name="LocalSqlServer" />
        <add name="LocalSqlServer"  connectionString="Driver={SQL Native Client};Server=WIN-K16NMM4128C;Initial Catalog=ASPNETDB;Integrated Security=true" providerName="System.Data.SqlClient" />
                <add name="con" connectionString="Server=WIN-K16NMM4128C;Initial Catalog=ASPNETDB;Integrated Security=True"/>
                <add name="ConnectionString" connectionString="Data Source=WIN-K16NMM4128C\SqlServer2008;Initial Catalog=ASPNETDB;Integrated Security=True" providerName="System.Data.SqlClient" />
</connectionStrings>

I Am Eating My braings Away, I’ve Gone through the Topics Covered Already,,,, Thanks For any Advise…

You are using integrated security in your connection strings. Configure it to use sql authentication. Something like this:

Data Source=myServerAddress;Initial Catalog=myDataBase;User Id=myUsername;Password=myPassword;
