I have a web service. When called, the web service creates a folder and files on another specified server in our network. When the command executes, I keep getting a crash. Basically, it says the ASPNET account is locked out. I unlock it and try again. Same thing.I tried using impersonate in the web.config, and it still tried to get into the server as ASPNET.The web server hosting the web service has Anonymous access enabled, allows the IIS to control the passworld, and also has intergrated Windows Authentication checked.
I'm trying to implement automatic lockout after 3 password failure attempts and then to auto unlock after 3 mins. But it does not auto lockout, I can still login if i use the correct password within the 3 mins.
when i was creatin the website visual studio created the aspnet.mdf automaticly and it was working fine . i could create a new user and login with no problems but after uploading the site content it wont work any more . so my question is how do i susscefly publish the aspnet.mdf file to the server so it would work
i am trying to show a list of users of my application "school", when admin logs in then he can view all the users in list but when school principals logins, he should get only users of his school, So i thought to get the current loggedIn userId first and then by that userId i'll get schoolId since userId is foreign key in school table...once i'll get the schoolId i can show the members of that school.
But my problem is how to get the UserID of currently loggedIn. I'm using MVC 1.0 Asp.Net -- "Membership" if my logic above is wrong then tell me the alternate good idea, so that principal can see only his users list.
I have an asp.net site running on XP IIS just fine, with login using aspnetdb. However, I wrote a page that has a datasource that connects to the same db, with a gridview that displays users. I've done this before on 2003 server iis 6 no problem. Here I get,
Cannot open user default database. Login failed.Login failed for user (domainusername)This is the identity I set in IIS 6.0 under authentication methods for anonymous access. I had to do this because the site connects to a remote accessdb as well. I cant use a local account or aspnet account.I dont understand how I can use the same site to login and out, but not to access this page.This is my asp.net conection string
data source=.SQLEXPRESS;Integrated Security=SSPI;AttachDBFilename=|DataDirectory|aspnetdb.mdf;user instance=true
Thats what the data source uses.Go figure when I remove and add again integrated security true, I can see the page. WHY I DONT KNOW!!!! But I also call membership.deleteuser() with a delete button, NOW THIS FAILS!Cannot open user default database. Login failed.Login failed for user '(computername)ASPNET'.
I have a web service that uses ThreadPool to delegate a task to a thread but it runs on ASPNET (System.Environment.UserName) while the main thread runs as windows account. How can I make this thread run with same windows account. Note that I have impersonate=true in web.config. This is causing problems accessing database.
I have an asp.net button and an asp.net label in an update panel and when I click the button it updates the text of the label in the code behind. However when I try to get the updated value it just returns an empty value.How do I get the updated value after the asynchronous postback has completed. I have included my code below.
I have a .Net 3.5 web site with master pages. All aspx pages (derived from master pages) have a form name of 'aspnet'. I want to change the form name for each aspx pages for web analytics purposes. I have lot of custom jscript in the site. Is there any easy way to do this without breaking the existing functionality.
give me an example of the proper connection string for getting VS 2010 to use the aspnet database on my SQL 2008 server? The db is there, I just can't seem to get connected. Server name GUNSITESQL, mixed security. I want to logon with a SQL user logon id, the db name is the default aspnet.
I am a tech writer and am working in visual studio creating tooltips for an ERP site. Originally we were using the Jquery tools from flow player[URL] but these did not agree with our asp elements. Specifically the drop down and check boxes. It also caused odd display features with our buttons. On one page the display looked great until an autogenerate button was pushed. Then, all of the formatting went away. So my question is, is there something else that's free that can allow me to style my tooltips and work well with ajax?
TL;DR: Which is likely faster: accessing static local variable, accessing variable stored in HttpRuntime.Cache, or accessing variable stored in memcached?At work, we get about 200,000 page views/day. On our homepage, we display a promotion. This promotion is different for different users, based on their country of origin and language.
All the different promotions are defined in an XML file on each web server. We have 12 web servers all serving the same site with the same XML file. There are about 50 different promotion combinations based on country/language. We imagine we'll never have more than 200 or so (if ever) promotions (combinations) total.
The XML file may be changed at any time, out of release cycle. When it's changed, the new definitions of promotions should immediately change on the live site. Implementing the functionality for this requirement is the responsibility of another developer and I.
Originally, I wrote the code so that the contents of the XML file were parsed and then stored in a static member of a class. A FileSystemWatcher monitored changes to the file, and whenever the file was changed, the XML would be reloaded/reparsed and the static member would be updated with the new contents. Seemed like a solid, simple solution to keeping the in-memory dictionary of promotions current with the XML file. (Each server doing this indepedently with its local copy of the XML file; all XML files are the same and change at the same time.)
The other developer I was working holds a Sr. position and decided that this was no good. Instead, we should store all the promotions in each server's HttpContext.Current.Cache with a CacheDependency file dependency that automatically monitored file changes, expunging the cached promotions when the file changed. While I liked that we no longer had to use a FileSystemWatcher, I worried a little that grabbing the promotions from the volitile cache instead of a static class member would be less performant.
(Care to comment on this concern? I already gave up trying to advocate not switching to HttpRuntime.Cache.)
Later, after we began using HttpRuntime.Cache, we adopted memcached with Enyim as our .NET interface for other business problems (e.g. search results). When we did that, this Sr. Developer decided we should be using memcached instead of the HttpRuntime (HttpContext) Cache for storing promotions. Higher-ups said "yeah, sounds good", and gave him a dedicated server with memcached just for these promotions. Now he's currently implementing the changes to use memcached instead.
I'm skeptical that this is a good decision. Instead of staying in-process and grabbing this promotion data from the HttpRuntime.Cache, we're now opening a socket to a network memcached server and transmitting its value to our web server.This has to be less performant, right? Even if the cache is memcached. (I haven't had the chance to compile any performance metrics yet.)On top of that, he's going to have to engineer his own file dependency solution over memcached since it doesn't provide such a facility.
Wouldn't my original design be best? Does this strike you as overengineering? Is HttpRuntime.Cache caching or memcached caching even necessary?
I have a requirement to develop an application in Excel VBA to talk to an MSSQL database.The client wants a login facility for a number of named users - I am going to setup these users in the aspnet tables in my database (aspnet_users, aspnet_membership etc).There is no facility in VBA to do automatic verification of a users credentials like there is in ASP.Net so I have developed a simple login form for the user to enter their username and password and send these to a stored procedure in the database. I am looking for a stored procedure that implements the ASP.Net hashing routine to convert the user supplied password into the same format as the database stored password so I can compare and return a true or false.
I think the question speaks for itself, but I'm sick of scrolling through my procedure list filled with 50 aspnet procedures.
Is there a way to hide the dbo schema, or these procedures from the list?
Is there a different/equivalent tool that would let me do this?
With TOAD, I could open each schema independently - that'd be wonderful!
My only other option is to connect our membership provider to a different database instead of the same as everything else. All in all this isn't a huge deal, but I figured I'd ask instead of being silently frustrated any longer.
I am facing such problem in my asp.net application since last three weeks.Previously It was working fine. I have never changed the account password which is using in impersonation in asp.net application (in web.config). this account locked why I dont know. Is it possible the run application with impersonation account while this account is locked. This account is domain account. Currently application gives run time error that account has been locked.
I am using forms authentication (built into ASP.Net) and allow users 5 attempts to login with an invalid password. After that they are locked out. How can I programmatically unlock someone?
What is the best way when using the ASP login to display to the user that they are locked out?I want the user to know that their account has been locked and action needs to be taken.
I have some pdf files that get attached to emails and are emailed out through a web application. Sometimes this causes the PDF files to get locked and I cannot delete them from the server (even after the email has gone out). I get the message "The process cannot access the file 'D:myfile.pdf' because it is being used by another process".
We have ASP.Net 2.0 application. It was running corretly and suddenly get loked up, when I kept opened a member edit page for 20 minutes or so. And after 20 minutes when I cliked on save. It is locked. Not it does not let me login. Niether it opens the login page sometimes.
This has happened twice.
In hosting server architecture we have two app servers and two db servers for fail over purposes.
