I'm still getting the same error.
Please give the statement that you run with complete file name
aspnet_regsql -A mrp -C "Data Source=.\SQLEXPRESS;Integrated Security=True;User Instance=True" -d "C:\Users\Josh\Documents\Visual Studio Codename Orcas\Projects\DTC\Website\App_Data\DtcDatabase.mdf"
alright, I figured it out. When I tried to attach the database using sql server management studio, I noticed I couldn't browse past the C:\Users\Josh directory. I then tried to manually put in the path to the mdf file and got the same error. So I changed the permissions to my users directory and sub dirs and that fixed it. So I was just having some weird permissions issues.
Anyway, it ran, problem solved. Thanks for the help!
