Error in ASP.NET MVC 4 with Generic Providers

I created a new simple ASP.NET MVC 4 Internet Project, then created models with the ADO.NET Entity data model design, and then I installed System.Web.Providers (Universal Providers) and configured Web.config to have two different data sources. using SQL CE 4.0 .

These are my connection strings:

<add name="DefaultConnection" connectionString="Data Source=C:\maindb.sdf" providerName="System.Data.SqlServerCe.4.0" />
<add name="MyEntitiesModelContainer" connectionString="metadata=res://*/MyEntitiesModel.csdl|res://*/MyEntitiesModel.ssdl|res://*/MyEntities.msl;provider=System.Data.SqlServerCe.4.0;provider connection string=&quot;Data Source=C:\myentities.sdf&quot;" providerName="System.Data.EntityClient" />

The application is working. But when I try to log in, this exception I get:

To call this method, the "Membership.Provider" property must be an instance of "ExtendedMembershipProvider".

I also added <add key="enableSimpleMembership" value="true" />to Web.config because someone in different forums solved the problem with this. This was not my case, the same error persists.

Can anyone help me?

ASP.NET MVC4 comes with simple membership, and simple membership works with SQL CE out of the box, you don't need (and really can't) universal providers with Simple Membership.

From this ASP.NET Forum Post:

Thanks for the tip. Now that I was able to see that the supplier being captured, I added

<appSettings>     
    <add key="enableSimpleMembership" value="true" />
</appSettings>

Everything seems to be working fine now.
