SqlProfileProvider

I am trying to get SqlProfileProvider working with my own db, I have set up the db using aspnet_regsql and then the following web.config, yet the application keeps creating an aspnetdb and never populates any of the tables in my db. 

<connectionStrings>
  <add name="Database"
       connectionString="Server=MYSERVER;Integrated Security=True;Initial Catalog=MYDB"
       providerName="System.Data.SqlClient" />
</connectionStrings>
<system.web>
<compilation debug="true" targetFramework="4.0" />
<authentication mode="Windows" />
<membership defaultProvider="AspNetActiveDirectoryMembershipProvider">
<providers>
  <add name="AspNetActiveDirectoryMembershipProvider"
       type="System.Web.Security.ActiveDirectoryMembershipProvider, 
             System.Web, Version=2.0.3600, Culture=neutral, 
             PublicKeyToken=b03f5f7f11d50a3a" />
</providers>
</membership>
<profile defaultProvider="AspNetSqlProfileProvider">
  <providers>
    <clear/>
    <add name="AspNetSqlProfileProvider"   
         type="System.Web.Profile.SqlProfileProvider"
         connectionStringName="Database"
         applicationName="/"/>
  </providers>
</profile>
<roleManager enabled="false" />

Try adding a <clear /> tag immediately after the <connectionStrings> tag. I seem to remember having a similar problem years ago that was caused by my web.config inheriting a connection string from somewhere else.

http://msdn.microsoft.com/en-us/library/ayb15wz8.aspx

<connectionStrings>
  <clear />
  <add name="Database"
       connectionString="Server=MYSERVER;Integrated Security=True;Initial Catalog=MYDB"
       providerName="System.Data.SqlClient" />
</connectionStrings>

EDIT:

Actually, you should also add the <clear /> tag to your membership providers as well.

Common Gotcha: Don't forget to <clear/> when adding providers
