        <providers>
          <clear/>
          <add name="AccessMembershipProvider" type="Samples.AccessProviders.AccessMembershipProvider, SampleAccessProviders" connectionStringName="AccessFileName" enablePasswordRetrieval="false" enablePasswordReset="true" requiresUniqueEmail="false" requiresQuestionAndAnswer="false" minRequiredPasswordLength="1" minRequiredNonalphanumericCharacters="0" applicationName="SampleSite" hashAlgorithmType="SHA1" passwordFormat="Hashed"/>
        </providers>

  <connectionStrings>
      <add name="AccessFileName" connectionString="Provider=Microsoft.Jet.Oledb.4.0;Data Source=|DataDirectory|ASPNetDB.mdb"
       providerName="System.Data.OleDb" />
      <add name="ASPNetDBConnectionString" connectionString="Provider=Microsoft.Jet.OLEDB.4.0;Data Source=|DataDirectory|\ASPNetDB.mdb;Persist Security Info=True"

  Nothing. I've still tried this. Not work.

  This settings work perfectly on my PC. 

  On webserver (windows 2008) shows this error..

  There must be a workaround..

  Now this is error:

  AccessFile is not valid: C:\inetpub\wwwroot\Mobile\Provider=Microsoft.Jet.Oledb.4.0;Data Source=C:\inetpub\wwwroot\Mobile\app_data\ASPNetDB.mdb

  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. 
  
  Exception Details: System.Exception: AccessFile is not valid: C:\inetpub\wwwroot\Mobile\Provider=Microsoft.Jet.Oledb.4.0;Data Source=C:\inetpub\wwwroot\Mobile\app_data\ASPNetDB.mdb
  

  But this file is the same that I'm using in another webapp..
