The website works fine on every other page but it's the registration page that's giving me this error.

The Website I try to load.

<%@ Page Title="Register" Language="C#" MasterPageFile="~/Site.master" AutoEventWireup="true" CodeFile="Register.aspx.cs" Inherits="Register" %>

<asp:Content ID="Content1" ContentPlaceHolderID="MainContent" Runat="Server">
    <br />
    <asp:CreateUserWizard ID="cuwNewUser" runat="server">
        <CreateUserButtonStyle CssClass="btn btn-info btn-lg" />
        <WizardSteps>
            <asp:CreateUserWizardStep ID="CreateUserWizardStep1" runat="server" Title="Enter your details">
            </asp:CreateUserWizardStep>
            <asp:CompleteWizardStep ID="CompleteWizardStep1" runat="server">

        </WizardSteps>
        <FinishCompleteButtonStyle CssClass="btn btn-info btn-lg" />
    </asp:CreateUserWizard>
</asp:Content>

I've tried searching for the answer a dozen times. Please help.

I installed MySql.Web and I installed MySql.Data using the Package Manager. I followed every instruction on mysql tutorial website.

Answer 1

I think the issue is with the type="MySql.Web.Security.MySQLMembershipProvider, MySql.Web, Version=6.9.7.0, Culture=neutral, PublicKeyToken=c5687fc88969c44d" part in your provider config key. It is not in correct schema structure.

You should try with just type="MySql.Web.Security.MySQLMembershipProvider" instead of the whole thing.
