I guess your setting is missing something (ConnectionStringName property) (Assuming that you have prepared all other things correctly including preparing the database for Membership and profile):

XML

<profile>
  <providers>
    <add name="AspNetSqlProfileProvider"
         connectionStringName="Conn"
         applicationName="/"
         type="System.Web.Profile.SqlProfileProvider />
  </providers>
</profile>

And, you should have a ConnectionStrings setting in the web.config, which should have a matching Name:

XML

<configuration>
<connectionStrings>
  <remove name="Conn"/>
  <add name="Conn"
       connectionString="server=db;database=aspnet;integrated security=sspi;"
 />
 </connectionStrings>
 ...
</configuration>
