  Hi,

  poojakulkarni

  "Failed to decrypt using provider 'RsaProtectedConfigurationProvider'. Error message from the provider: The RSA key container 

  could not be opened." 

  Below I have pasted the lines from the web.config file . Line 22 is the second line in the below code.. need urgent help ..

   

  This error occurs may the current user doesn't have right to access the RSA. since by default ,RSA key containers are tightly protected by

  NTFS access control lists (ACLs) on the server where they are installed. This improves the security of the encrypted information by restricting

  who can access the encryption key. Before ASP.NET can use an RSA key container, the process identity of your ASP.NET application must

  be authorized to have read access to that RSA key container.

  How to do this please check this reference:

  You may not have the right on accessing C:\Documents and Settings\All Users\Application Data\Microsoft\Crypto\RSA\MachineKeys. Please check the access right.

  You can fix this with one of the following method:
  1. I'm using Windows Server 2008
  2. Open IIS
  3. Navigate to the web site that is causing the problem
  4. Under Security within the Home section of the web site, click Authentication
  6. Disable ASP.NET impersonation
  
  or
  
  aspnet_regiis -pa "NetFrameworkConfigurationKey" "ASPNET"
  aspnet_regiis -pa "NetFrameworkConfigurationKey" "NETWORK SERVICE"
  aspnet_regiis -pa "NetFrameworkConfigurationKey" "NT AUTHORITY\NETWORK SERVICE"
  aspnet_regiis -pa "NetFrameworkConfigurationKey" "NT AUTHORITY\SYSTEM"
