ASP.NET Membership change password not working

Question

I have this code for changing a user\'s password when they click the password reset button (with extra code to log to ELMAH so I can try to figure out what is going wrong).

Answer 1

Which MemberShipProvider are you using? Is it the same for every user? For instance, if you use SqlMembershipProvider and set enablePasswordReset to false, it will quietly fail to update the password. ChangePassword, in this case, returns true as if everything went fine.
