There is a bug with the 04.06.00.SqlDataProvider Script in the DNN 4.6.2 Install package.

On line 760 of the script the {DatabaseOwner}{ObjectQualifer} tags have been reversed. This will break the installation of the ActiveDirectory install package. This should only affect people who have configured the ObjectQualifier on there database and who are attempting to install the ActiveDirectory Authentication service.

Bellow is exerpt from the script :

-- Add an assembly regsitration for this package
            INSERT INTO {objectQualifier}{databaseOwner}Assemblies (
                PackageID,
                AssemblyName,
                Version
            )
            VALUES (
                @PackageID,
                @AssemblyName,
                @Version
            )

bdebeer, I'm glad you found that. I thought I was doing something wrong.

I've corrected the line in my 04.06.00.SqlDataProvider script, but I'm still getting the "Invalid object name" error when I attempt to install Active Directory Authentication. I'm fiddling with things that I really know nothing about here. Is that script cached somewhere? Do I need to refresh or recompile something?

Thanks for your help.

Oh, I see. The script runs during installation and creates the stored procedure. (Sorry for my ignorance. :) After changing the stored procedure, it installed just fine.

I wanted to let you know about something else that happened, though, in case it's relevant. I wanted to change the minimum required password length, which I have done in previous DNN versions via the properties of the "website" folder in IIS services manager, ASP.net tab → Edit Configuration → Authentication → Manage Providers. As soon as I had done this, I started getting errors when attempting to browse the site, saying that the Active Directory authentication provider could not be found. I had to go to a backup web.config in order to be able to do a standard login again, and then reinstall the AD provider. I finally figured out that if I just changed minRequiredPasswordLength on the AspNetSqlMembershipProvider line in web.config, it worked with no errors.

Thanks for your help!
