After upgrading a site from 3.02.00 to 3.03.06 I can't login as host due to error below.
I did try upgrading to 4 first so was trying various versions of upgrade to try to get a working option - all failed.
I did see some posts about failures in membership provider after some portals deleted, which would also apply here - but not to the host account surely?

any ideas much appreciated,
thanks,
Jonathan

Found a fix by the time post approved:
The upgrade process created a new entry in table aspnet_applications with the name 'dotnetnuke'
after upgrading and successfully registering a new user on a site open for registration, another application is created as '/' (dotnetnuke in this instance the root application)
Probably several possible fixes, one being to remap users to the new application as:

update aspnet_membership set applicationid =
(
Select applicationid from aspnet_applications
where applicationname='/'
)
where applicationid !=
(
Select applicationid from aspnet_applications
where applicationname='/'
)
go

update aspnet_users set applicationid =
(
Select applicationid from aspnet_applications
where applicationname='/'
)
where applicationid !=
(
Select applicationid from aspnet_applications
where applicationname='/'
)
go
