ASP.NET MVC 5 - web configuration tool - sql-server

I am trying to access the security settings in the ASP.NET Web Configuration tool.
I read the MSDN tutorial at : MSDN
I also found how to make the tool run from this answer
I am getting the following error when I click the 'Security' link on the web config tool page:
There is a problem with your selected data store. This can be caused by an invalid server name or credentials, or by insufficient permission. It can also be caused by the role manager feature not being enabled. Click the button below to be redirected to a page where you can choose a new data store.
The following message may help in diagnosing the problem: Unable to connect to SQL Server database.
I did find a similar question, but the message to diagnose the problem is different in my case.
Can someone please help ?
Thanks.
Update:
Didn't resolve the issue yet, but tried it on a different machine.
Before showing the ASP.NET Web Configuration tool page, it asks for username and password. I tried following this answer, but it still asks for username and password.
Which username and password is required here ?
Thanks.

Salesforce : error while deploying Profile

Profile error :
Getting two kinds of Errors first time while deploying the profile this is the error for Admin profile.
profiles/Admin.profile -- Error: Unknown user permission: ManageConvMiningReports
Next when I tried to deploy this time i am getting different one
profiles/Admin.profile -- Error: Unknown user permission: ShareFilesWithNetworks
I tried going to system admin profile and searched for Share Files with People in Experience Cloud sites
and tried to disable it but that permission is default checked for admin profile i can't disable it. So how i can reslove this issue.
can someone please help me out with solution.
Thanks in Advance.
Solution for the above error.
Remove the part of XML that mentions these 2 permissions, then try deploying. Or figure out how to enable missing features in the target org (experience cloud? Salesforce content? Whatever caused these checkboxes to appear in source org)

Identity server 4 application access

I am trying to learn identity server 4 as a token server for a client application. I came across a very well written tutorial by Scott Brady. I am trying to start by using the sample code from the article at https://github.com/scottbrady91/IdentityServer4-Example . The issue I am having is that when I login the “Client Application Access” screen give me a message “You have not given access to any applications”. Lots of searches and attempts have failed to solve this issue. I am hoping someone can point me in the direction of how to give access to applications.
Thanks in advance for any direction.
Thanks
It's not an error message. The View that your are seeing is because that you have not authorized any clients to access your profile.
After giving consent to client(s), The Page will show the list of clients that can request your profile data from the identity server.
I'm assuming that you're only running Identity Server. You need run both Client and Identity Server to understand the complete flow.

MS Reporting Services not authenticate on local domain name

I can access my reports through
http://mymachine:808/Reports
or
http://localhost:808/Reports
but not
http://myhost.mydomain.com:808/Reports
even when I have myhost.mydomain.com map to 127.0.0.1 in the host file. It was keep asking user name and password, but the same user name and password works fine in other ways to access.
How to fix this?
Update
It prompts to type in user name and password, but just to pop up again. So there is no way to get into the page with the broken URL.
This is consistent in at least 2 browsers: Firefox 47.0, and Edge 25.10586.0.0
Also, I didn't have Report Manager installed, here is my menu of Reporting services configuration manager:
From the hint in comments the issues is in the Reporting Services.
I was using the default settings, but MSDN said you can have different authentication types. I checked my reportserver.config file and I was using NTLM. Change it to use basic authentication solves the problem.
My guess of the reason, is that the browser will send a "Host" property for every request, and as this is inconsistent with NTLM's "domain", so Reporting Services reject the authentication. However, when switch to basic authentication, it simply pass the credential to Windows, so now it accepts.

You could try adding a new URL for Report Manager. To do this
Open Reporting Services Configuration Manager
Select Report Manager URL
Click Advanced

Login fails for local copy of DNN site

I've been tasked with maintaining a DNN site that has been running for a while, so I copied it to my local development environment to get up to speed on the setup. I have the site up and running locally, and I can browse all (I think) of the pages. It seems to display correctly and yesterday, the DNN login worked correctly. However, today, when I try to login to manage changes, I enter my username and password on the login page, but it does not actually log in. On screen, all that seems to happen is that the password field clears. No error message displays. In my Firebug console, the only error message that appears is "Password fields present in a form with an insecure (http://) form action. This is a security risk that allows user login credentials to be stolen." Again, yesterday, I was able to log in and get to all of the DNN management features -- I changed skins, modified CSS, changed code, etc. I've tried multiple logins (host, superuser, and regular user) -- all have the same result.
I don't see anything in the database EventLog, except for a startup record.
I saw a couple of other SO posts tangentially related to failed DNN logins on development environment, and checked that Form Authentication is Enabled in IIS and the security for the site folders are set correctly and the folder is not read-only.
I generally use Firefox for development, but I also tried IE. I'm certain I'm missing sometime obvious, but it has me stumped. Ideas? I'm new to DNN, so I'm not up to speed yet on the best practices for debugging. Any other suggestions would be welcome.
Some details: Live site is SQL Server 2008; Dev is SQL Server 2012. Both sites use IIS 7. Dev is DNN 7.2.2. Locally, I'm using VS 2010 for development.
Couple of things to check.
1) Check to make sure your database connection strings (2 of them) in the web.config are both pointing to your local database.
2) Check to make sure the MachineKey values in the web.config still match the values in the production web.config
3) You might turn off SSL on the site, though you'll have to do that in the database as you can't get logged in. I believe you can likely just set Secure to 0 on all of the Tabs table records, but you might need to track down a HOST setting as well to make this work (hostsettings table)
An update. I was able to get this to work by using a different user account. I'm still not sure what the root of the problem was, but I believe it was related to specific settings on my particular user account. I used a generic 'admin' account, and was able to make it work.
Im experiencing the same issue, I think its something to do with the the .dotnetnuke cookie

Docusign configuration in Salesforce error

Ive been advised by Docusign to post here.
I have 4 clients who I've installed the Docusign for Salesforce App for. I've followed the installation instructions and every time I end up with the same error. When it comes to entering my Salesforce credentials it says they are wrong or I have not added the trusted network. I know the credentials are correct and I have entered the trusted network. I've tried various things like using security token in the password, configuring at the docusign end. Nothing works, Docusign don't know what the issue is, I've also raised a case with Salesforce and they can't help. I can't understand why an App on the app exchange can't get passed configuration and noone can help! Hopefully someone here can help. Thanks
The DocuSignAPI tag on Stack Overflow is used for api development and integration questions normally, however I will try to address your issue...
First off, if you could update your question with a screenshot of the error and screen you are on when you receive the error that would help isolate the issue.
With that in mind, what screen are you on? Are you on the screen that's titled "Connect DocuSign to Salesforce"? Even though you've mentioned I just want to double check that you are entering your Salesforce user credentials and not your DocuSign credentials.
Next, what environment are you selecting? And what type of DocuSign account do you have? You need to make sure that you are pointing to an environment where you have an existing account. For instance, if you have a DocuSign demo account but you are pointing to Production during the install, you might get that error.
