please move this post to dotConnect for Oracle
hi,
i'm following along the MVC2 MusicStore Tutorial (http://mvcmusicstore.codeplex.com/). Actually the application / tutorial has absolutly nothing to do with Devart but when i'm at page 68 - creating a user via the asp.net ASP.NET Web Site Administration Tool clicking the Create user link it gives the following error:

Code: Select all

An error was encountered. Please return to the previous page and try again.

The following message may help in diagnosing the problem: Unknown connection string parameter . at Devart.Common.k.a(Hashtable A_0) at Devart.Common.k..ctor(String A_0, Hashtable A_1, Boolean A_2) at Devart.Data.Oracle.u..ctor(String A_0) at Devart.Data.Oracle.b1.a(String A_0, k A_1) at Devart.Common.DbConnectionFactory.a(String A_0, k& A_1) at Devart.Common.DbConnectionBase.set_ConnectionString(String value) at Devart.Common.Web.Providers.DbMembershipProvider.a() at Devart.Common.Web.Providers.DbMembershipProvider.Initialize(String name, NameValueCollection config) at System.Web.Configuration.ProvidersHelper.InstantiateProvider(ProviderSettings providerSettings, Type providerType)

http://localhost:52782/asp.netwebadminf ... dUser.aspx

what the hell! my web application contains no "Devart" at all. it seams the devart install fucked up machine.config.

this is where "devart" is found:

Code: Select all

the machine.config contains:

at line 152.

what to set the connectionString to?

if i change it to:

Code: Select all

i get this:

Code: Select all

The following message may help in diagnosing the problem:  The connection name 'OracleServices' was not found in the applications configuration or the connection string is empty. at Devart.Common.Web.Providers.b.c(NameValueCollection A_0) at Devart.Common.Web.Providers.DbMembershipProvider.Initialize(String name, NameValueCollection config) at System.Web.Configuration.ProvidersHelper.InstantiateProvider(ProviderSettings providerSettings, Type providerType)

i do NOT want to specify any connection string to a specific database in machine.config!

what to do?

The problem was caused by connections specified in the configuration file being opened on initializing the membership provider. A possible workaround is to add the element into the section, the problem itself was fixed in the 5.70.146 build of dotConnect for Oracle:
