Hey, I have been struggling with this error for 2 days now... I have exhausted google and these forum's... tried everything... I am using the latest version of DNN... And tried both the AD 5.00.05 and 5.00.06 RC.  I am getting this error: InnerException:This Membership Provider has not been configured to support password retrieval. I will post the full error below

So I have everythign setup. When I use windows login the first time it creates the user and they are logged in fine. The net time I try to login with this user, I get the error above and I will post the entire error below. 

So after reading online I tried changing in the web.config from hashed password to encrypted, but same thing. I tried putting passwordretrieval on while encrypted set to true, but then I got another error. The only thing I was unable to do is set allow null values in the PasswordHistory table like in this post:  http://www.dnnsoftware.com/forums/forumid/89/postid/488876/scope/posts  . I cannot set the values because the DB is a MDF file and is read only and no matter what I try I cannot get it to be readwrite...

here is the complete error:

So I managed to get it working... I reinstalled a new instance of the latest DNN and the RC of the Active Directory. This time I used a SQL Database.

I got the same error, but this time I did the following:

1. In the web.config file I changed the following two options: enablePasswordRetrieval="false" passwordFormat="Hashed" to the following: enablePasswordRetrieval="true" passwordFormat="Encrypted"

2. Under Host -> Host Settings -> Advanced Settings -> Membership Management -> Uncheck enable password history

3. In the dbo.PasswordHistory table I changed the entries to Allow Nulls.

After I did this, I was able to login, logout, login multiple times and all was working.

Thanks,

Steve

Good luck. I think this has been left in the dust more or less. I think some of the modules in the DNN Store would be the way to get this working. Does this work in Evoq?
