This tells me that your Connection string in your web.config is poiting to an incorrect database or path.

Post your Connection String in your Web.Config and let us see

Where is the Username and Password ?

That is why it gives errors, try to write it like this

XML

<add key="MyConnection" value="User id = sa;Password=mypass;Server=SOFTWARE;Database= test" />

If you are working with SQL Server you must always pass the username and password

Re: Configuration Error

You execute this in SQL ?

If yes, then before you execute this, you must first login in order to run Commands, so that user name and password that you use to log in there , is what is needed.

Thanks for your quick reply.

I am a bit confused because:

1. My secured folder is hosted into another domain
Eg: https://anotherdomain.com/myfolder
2. All my secure pages are inside myfolder. Eg. login.aspx
3. What I want to it is:
3.1 If log in successful then it will send back to mydomain.com

I don't know enough about your scenario to give you specifics, but if you have control of the source code for both domains, you can easily update the code to do what you need. If you don't have the ability to modify how anotherdomain.com works, then you will probably have to abstract the login process a bit. You would need to post back to your own login page, and inside of that make a request to the other domains login page, and handle the response.

If you do have control of the code on both domains, and both are ASP.NET, then I think that link I posted earlier can be helpful, if not solve your problem outright.

A DropDownList will always look exactly like a select, as that's what it's rendered as.

Despite everything, the person most likely to be fooling you next is yourself.

ASP controls not being reconized in the code behind. [modified]

I have an ASP page with asp labels controls on the .asp page. In the page code-behind these labels are not being reconized (error: the name lblCountry does not exist in the current context). First I displayed the ASP controls below. After that I show the code behind where they are not being reconized. I can view the asp page in the designer and all looks well. Can anyone assist?

ASP controls:

<table> 

<tr>

<td>Customer ID:</td>

<td><asp:label runat="server" id="lblCustomerID" xmlns:asp="#unknown" /></td>

</tr> 

<tr>

<td>Company Name:</td>

<td><asp:label runat="server" id="lblCompanyName" xmlns:asp="#unknown" /></td>

</tr>

<tr>

<td>Contact Name:</td>

<td><asp:label runat="server" id="lblContactName" xmlns:asp="#unknown" /></td>

</tr>

<tr>

<td>Country:</td>

<td><asp:label runat="server" id="lblCountry" xmlns:asp="#unknown" /></td>

</tr>

</table>

Code Behind:

lblCompanyName.Text = editTxtCompanyName.Text;

lblContactName.Text = editTxtContactName.Text;

lblCountry.Text = editTxtCountry.Text;

Thanks,

Steve

Check if the protected global::System.Web.UI.WebControls.Label lblCountry; exists or not in aspx.designer.cs file. If not then add that line. It looks like the control is missing in the desinger file.

I moved the file from an example project and the file has no designer file. How can I generate a designer file for the asp file? Just create a new webpage and cut and past?

Thanks,
