MVC Application RoleManager issue after being deployed in Azure
-
I have an issue with my ASP.NET MVC4 application when I publish it to Azure. The roleManager part is not working and the application returns an error when it reaches to this code in my view:
bool isAdmin = User.IsInRole("admin");
And the error is the following:
A network-related or instance-specific error occurred while establishing a connection to SQL Server. The server was not found or was not accessible. Verify that the instance name is correct and that SQL Server is configured to allow remote connections. (provider: SQL Network Interfaces, error: 26 - Error Locating Server/Instance Specified)
Description: An unhandled exception occurred during the execution of the current web request. Please review the stack trace for more information about the error and where it originated in the code. SQLExpress database file auto-creation error: The connection string specifies a local Sql Server Express instance using a database location within the application's App\_Data directory. The provider attempted to automatically create the application services database because the provider determined that the database does not exist. The following configuration requirements are necessary to successfully check for existence of the application services database and automatically create the application services database: If the application is running on either Windows 7 or Windows Server 2008R2, special configuration steps are necessary to enable automatic creation of the provider database. Additional information is available at: http://go.microsoft.com/fwlink/?LinkId=160102. If the application's App\_Data directory does not already exist, the web server account must have read and write access to the application's directory. This is necessary because the web server account will automatically create the App\_Data directory if it does not already exist. If the application's App\_Data directory already exists, the web server account only requires read and write access to the application's App\_Data directory. This is necessary because the web server account will attempt to verify that the Sql Server Express database already exists within the application's App\_Data directory. Revoking read access on the App\_Data directory from the web server account will prevent the provider from correctly determining if the Sql Server Express database already exists. This will cause an error when the provider attempts to create a duplicate of an already existing database. Write

The error message was very descriptive and quite straight forward? It can't connect to SQL Express on the server using the connection string given. If SQL Express is not installed then no configuration or code changes are going to resolve that.
