Hi,

I am using a custom profile provider which works very well when I use the create user wizard, however I would like to know how I can do it in code.

I can create a user using

 Membership.CreateUser

and then I use

Roles.AddUsertoRole

to give the new user access rights, This seems to work fine but it does not actually create a  user profile.

I have tried profilebase.createprofile ("username")

but that did not seem to work. and when ever I try and access my profile editing page I get an error because it trys to lookup the profile from the database but it does not exist.

I am using the HDIProfileProvider which I found on this site, do I need to add a new function to this to add the profile in.

any help will be appreciated

thanks

James

if you are building a new project to create users against an existing site. what the issue is probably that the application isn't set

try reading

http://weblogs.asp.net/scottgu/archive/2006/04/22/Always-set-the-_2200_applicationName_2200_-property-when-configuring-ASP.NET-2.0-Membership-and-other-Providers.aspx

if you look into your sql db. you'll probably see your users under another applicationid.
