    Umb 4.6.1 - Member already exists, but doesn't

    Okay, so I started out using the Membership provider (the methods on Member are marked obsolete), doing this:

                MembershipUser user = Membership.Provider.CreateUser(username, password, emailAddress, string.Empty, string.Empty, true, null, out status);

    It worked nicely. Now all of a suddent it doesn't. A small note, the username is the same as the e-mail address.

    Now I can try with whatever e-mail address I want, but I always get a "member already exists". Obviously it doesn't.

    So to try and fix it, I went back to the old code,

                if (Member.GetMemberFromLoginName(username) == null) {
                    if (Member.GetMemberFromEmail(emailAddress) == null) {
                        MemberType memberType = MemberType.GetByAlias("ForumMedlem");
                        Member member = Member.MakeNew(username, emailAddress, memberType, User.GetUser(0));
                        member.Password = password;
                        member.Save();
                    }
                }

    But exactly same problem.

    I can create the member fine in the back-office.

    Any ideas? Any at all? Well, apart from upgrading the site to the latest.

    Thanks, Steen
