I’ve set up FBA on an extended site, added a user, verified the central admin can read the users (people picker works fine).
The problem is no matter what I try I never get asked for credentials, just get a ‘You are not authorized to view this page’. I have a feeling its something in IIS but I’ve added all anonymous accounts I can think of.
If I switch the authentication type back to windows it works fine.
I’ve read countless how-to’s and I don’t think I am missing a step, they all just end with ‘you should now see the login page’ which I am denied from.
Any tips?
I downloaded http://www.microsoft.com/downloads/details.aspx?FamilyID=e90fe777-4a21-4066-bd22-b931f7572e9a&DisplayLang=en and ran it on my site, determined that someone (@#$@#$) changed the IUSR password and never logged it or updated it either way it’s working now and I’d recommend this tool as it solved my issue in two seconds flat!
