• IIS 7.0 - Cannot get Membership Provider with name . The membership provider for this process was not properly configured.

    Cannot get Membership Provider with name . The membership provider for this process was not properly configured. You must configure the membership provider in the .config file for every SharePoint process.

    Steps to resolve this in IIS 7.0

    When you manually configured web.config entries as you would have done in IIS 6.0, IIS 7.0 does not recognize this membership provider unless it is added by going into IIS Manager >> Site Settings >> Providers >>

    Add both membership provider and role provider entries in .NET Users and .NET Roles in here and above issue is resolved.

    Also make sure this is done in all web applications - Central Admin, Windows Authentication Web App and Extended Web Application

    1. Hi where did exactly the error show up? I have IIS 7 and sharepoint 2010. I configured forms authentication by making the web.config changes and authentication providers in the sharepoint etc basically pretty much same as moss2007 and did not do anything in iis only difference being its claims mechanism this time.

      now the forms authentication is not working and looks like it does not even invoke my custom forms memberhsip provider. but the error says it unable to validate the username password not the one like you mentioned

      In IIS 7.0 i could see the all membership providers including the custom one but when I tried to make it default it says its not trusted provider and asks to modify the administartion config. I can not open this file as it seems to be signed or security policy of our intranet.

      Any comments on this scenario?

      Thanks
