Hi there - just wondering if someone can advise me with a problem I've run into
I've got a connection string set in my web.config file and I wanted to encrypt it so it wasn't plain text. I know ASP doesn't serve up the web.config file if requested, but I still wanted to encrypt it for extra security.
Unfortunately, it doesn't seem to work on my hosting as I get the message:
"Failed to decrypt using provider 'RsaProtectedConfigurationProvider'. Error message from the provider: The RSA key container could not be opened."
Apparently, this is something to do with running on shared hosting.
Could anyone shed any light on possible solutions?
