The 'System.Web.Security.SqlMembershipProvider' requires a database schema compatible with schema version '1'

Error: The 'System.Web.Security.SqlMembershipProvider' requires a database schema compatible with schema version '1'

I received above error on my production machine after deploying new database for a web application. I have SQL Server 2008 R2 installed and to deploy database I created query file (.sql) schema with data. After that I deployed web application properly.


When tried to browse the application locally on production machine I noticed following error:



When I noticed this issue, every other web applications using exact same framework as well as settings was working smoothly. Even I double checked web application access permission on database, connection string etc everything was correct.

How to resolve?

I resolved this issue very interestingly, which is truly amazed me.

The trick was going through the IIS and took application offline and then removed the web.config (with backup) then took IIS web app online. Obviously no web.config so I see another error then recopied the backup web.config. That’s it.

And I was able to see my web app working correctly.

Migrating database from ASP.NET Identity to ASP.NET Core Identity

As you know ASP.NET Core Identity (table structure) is different from what we had earlier in ASP.NET Identity. Actually the identity system which we have today with .NET Core is very mature and continuously evolved be it ASP.NET Membership, ASP.NET Identity 1, ASP.NET Identity 2 and now ASP.NET Core Identity. Recently I had to migrate few application to ASP.NET Core and similar its identity database. Because the table schema is changed, i had to re-think and create migration script which I would like to share with you today. It is very simple and easy, just three step and I had everything ready: STEP 1 : Change name of existing tables STEP 2 : Create ASP.NET Core Identity tables STEP 3 : Migrate data from old tables (ASP.NET Identity) to new tables (ASP.NET Core Identity) Script:  https://gist.github.com/itorian/c699e8534b392a6c726ec66c48100072 You should also watch my video, where I demoed migration.
