Must call the "WebSecurity.InitializeDatabaseConnection" method before?

I have the following Asp.Net MVC 4 code and it raise the error on line 18 of controller DealController. Right now it only happen after I rebuild the project when I'm debugging using VS 2012 on my local PC.

Line 16: private IQueryable<Deal> Deals
Line 17: {
Line 18:    get { return User.IsInRole("Admin") ? _db.Deals : _db.Deals.Where(d => d.CreatedBy == User.Identity.Name); }
Line 19: }

You must call the "WebSecurity.InitializeDatabaseConnection" method before you call any other method of the "WebSecurity" class. This call should be placed in an _AppStart.cshtml file in the root of your site.

Should I add attribute [InitializeSimpleMembership] on all the controllers which calls User.IsInRole() or User.Identity.Name? Right now it's only added on AccountController.

Adding [InitializeSimpleMembership] for the controller solved the issue.
