Error: "Unable to find the requested .Net Framework Data Provider. It may not be installed."

I have followed post such as checking machine.config file to remove the extra and it still does not work. These are the following error message.

[ArgumentException: Unable to find the requested .Net Framework Data Provider. It may not be installed.]

  • System.Web.Providers.ModelHelper.CreateEntityConnection(ConnectionStringSettings setting, String csdl, String ssdl, String msl) +413

    String email, String passwordQuestion, String passwordAnswer, Boolean isApproved, DateTime& createDate, Boolean uniqueEmail, Int32
    passwordFormat, Object& providerUserKey) +314

  • System.Web.Providers.DefaultMembershipProvider.CreateUser(String username, String password, String email, String passwordQuestion,

I'm publishing a web application project using C# in Visual Studio 2013 to a local server using IIS 7. Thank you!

Try replacing your <entityFramework> section in your web.config with this:

<entityFramework>
  <defaultConnectionFactory type="System.Data.Entity.Infrastructure.SqlCeConnectionFactory, EntityFramework">
    <parameters>
      <parameter value="System.Data.SqlServerCe.4.0" />
    </parameters>
  </defaultConnectionFactory>
  <providers>
    <provider invariantName="System.Data.SqlClient" type="System.Data.Entity.SqlServer.SqlProviderServices, EntityFramework.SqlServer" />
    <provider invariantName="System.Data.SqlServerCe.4.0" type="System.Data.Entity.SqlServerCompact.SqlCeProviderServices, EntityFramework.SqlServerCompact" />
  </providers>
</entityFramework>
