Custom Role Provider Everthing Working Except Roles???

Hello Everyone,

I am trying to use a custom role provider, the main purpose so that I don't have to use a database file. My web.config file is posted below. My problem is that I think I have followed all the steps to create a custom role provider using both articles on MSDN and some written by Scott Gu. After Modifying my web.config file I went to the asp.net configuration to test the connection. Users are created in the remote database but roles are being picked up and created in the App_Data folder. Can anyone give me a hint at what I am doing wrong? thanks in advance.
