Re: [sharepointdiscussions] Forms Based Authentication Audience (new issue) _admin/owners.aspx not working

Solved my own issue, somewhat accidentally.  I went to my site collection and added both administrator roles there, then went back to CA and it worked so I was able to add my FBA user as a site collection admin.

I tried to implement your solution, and now I have a new problem.

When I tried to click on the link (Central Admin - Application Mamangement - SharePoint Site Management - Site Collection Administrators)  I get an error message on the _admin/owners. aspx page.

Object reference not set to an instance of an object.   at Microsoft.SharePoin t.WebControls. SiteAdministrati onSelector. DefaultSelection Id()
   at Microsoft.SharePoin t.WebControls. ContextSelector` 1.OnLoad( EventArgs e)
   at System.Web.UI. Control.LoadRecu rsive()
   at System.Web.UI. Control.LoadRecu rsive()
   at System.Web.UI. Control.LoadRecu rsive()
   at System.Web.UI. Control.LoadRecu rsive()
   at System.Web.UI. Control.LoadRecu rsive()
   at System.Web.UI. Control.LoadRecu rsive()
   at System.Web.UI. Control.LoadRecu rsive()
   at System.Web.UI. Control.LoadRecu rsive()
   at System.Web.UI. Page.ProcessRequ estMain(Boolean includeStagesBefore AsyncPoint, Boolean includeStagesAfterA syncPoint)

Even this information is no help.  (how many times does the Object reference error show up?)

Anyone have any thoughts?

hi Jay,

firstly add a FBA user as secondary administrator to you current web
application via central administrator, and now deploy the webParts and
perform audience targeting with this FBA user login.. I'm sure this will
work..
