Creating membership tables online


I want to create the membership tables online that are used for ASP.Net 3.5 login controls. I thought their was a script I could use or executable on my computer to install those tables.

Is that the case? or what would be the best method to create the tables online.


Solution

  • There are a whole bunch of scripts for membership and role databases under

    C:\Windows\Microsoft.NET\Framework\v2.0.50727\
    

    Something like:

    InstallCommon.sql
    InstallMembership.sql
    InstallPersistSqlState.sql
    InstallPersonalization.sql
    InstallProfile.SQL
    InstallRoles.sql
    InstallSqlState.sql
    InstallSqlStateTemplate.sql
    InstallWebEventSqlProvider.sql
    

    and their equivalent uninstall scripts, too.

    The easiest way to install those databases is to use the aspnet_regsql command line tool in that directory. It's a wizard that walks you through installing the necessary bits.
