I have been trying to configure Sharepoint 2007 to use a custom role provider (using Forms based authentication) that we have developed. I have been following the tutorial at http://www.andrewconnell.com/blog/articles/HowToConfigPublishingSiteWithDualAuthProvidersAndAnonAccess.aspx, so my configuration files look similar (only database connection string changes). I have the Membership role provider working (able to add users to my site collection) but am not able to figure out what i have done wrong in setting up the role provider. To verify that our code works, I setup an empty website project and called the asp.net configuation tool (as described in the above reference article) and am able to view/create/remove/etc... roles as expected, so I think the role provider is working correctly. What is the recommended way to debug my problem? Thanks Greg.

what is the error? Because i setup the FBa using the same blog and its working fine. if you give me detail of the error then i can help you more. just quick check, see if the FBA enable on the Sharepoint Web app and also make sure you extend the web app. then check the web.config(both web apps) file and see if you copy the right code at right place and right connection string us. for both role and membership. also make sure you have the right web.config entris for central admin. One thing Sequance of the entries inside the web.config is very important. so paste the entries where is mentioned in right block. http://www.andrewconnell.com/blog/articles/HowToConfigPublishingSiteWithDualAuthProvidersAndAnonAccess.aspx hope this will help in trouble shoot. thanks ws i am at entry level administrator
