ASP.NET SQL Server Registration Tool Not Finding Any Databases

StackOverflow https://stackoverflow.com/questions/9123169

Question

I am trying to use the ASP.NET SQL Server Registration Tool to setup my database for Membership Roles and ASP.NET Users however it cannot find any database when I clearly have one. I am using SQL Express, does that play any role?

Was it helpful?

Solution

What are you using for the -S (server) parameter? You must use ServerName\InstanceName. By default, SQL Server Express has an instance name of SQLEXPRESS. Therefore, most like you should be using YourServerName\SQLEXPRESS.
