visual web developer is not loading the memebrship provider service. My memberhsip service provider has been acting kinda strange lately. Is there a way to try to repair it? Like repair Visual Studio? What can I do?
View 1 RepliesI'm trying to make API calls to a service provider. I've never tackled JSON requests before but I want to give it a go - as they seem less verbose than XML. Could someone be kind enough to give me a simple example here?
My confusion stems from some libraries I've come across. Do I need to add any libraries to my project? Or is it just a matter of creating a string that complies with JSON syntax and send it via a WebRequest?
Can I use the membership provider api on a hosted service? I can create mssql databases but have no control over iis. Will I be able to use the membership admin webpage on the hosted service?
Am I correct in stating that the api uses ASPNETDB.MDF in the app_data folder as it's database?
I am a total newbie in the oAuth area and have set up DotNetOpenAuth to set up an oAuth Service provider. The sample provided in the DotNetOpenAuth download is quite confusing for me...maybe cos i am new to this stuff. There is one default page that creates a database and populates the database. Now I browse to the login.aspx and it asks me to put an openid, actually I want to use DNN (which implements DotNetOpenAuth) and i want to use those credentials on another site which will be the oAuth consumer. Can someone explain how to test the oAuth Service provider in the samples of DotNetOpenAuth?

View 3 RepliesI have a SqlMembershipProvider store with Roles enabled. This is configured and has the user "devtest" in the roles "xxUser" and "xxAdmin".
I also have a WCF service, which I want to authenticate and authorize against. My problem is that:
the authorisation is not happening, code just executes despite the policy attribute I don't get any identity or security context so do not know who is calling the service I need: to know which user is calling the
method some degree of rejecting users if permissions don't match (ideally this should be performed
within the RoleProvider/MembershipProvider/WCF but can do it myself if I have to) SSL in transport
I have my service contract set up thus:
[ServiceContract]
public interface ISupportService
{
[OperationContract]
[PrincipalPermission(SecurityAction.Demand, Role = "ThisRoleDoesNotExist")]
List<BaseInterestRate> GetAllBaseInterestRates();
}
the code is simple enough:
public class SupportService : ISupportService
{
public List<BaseInterestRate> GetAllBaseInterestRates()
{
OperationContext operationContext = OperationContext.Current;
ServiceSecurityContext serviceSecurityContext = ServiceSecurityContext.Current; // is always null
using (xxxEntities entities = new xxxEntities())
{
return new List<BaseInterestRate>(entities.BaseInterestRates);
}
}}
My service configuration is thus:
-->
<behaviors>
<serviceBehaviors>
<behavior name="SupportServiceBehavior">
<serviceMetadata httpGetEnabled="false" httpsGetEnabled="true" />
<serviceDebug includeExceptionDetailInFaults="false" />

How to: Use the SQL Server Role Provider with Windows Authentication in WCF Calling from Windows Forms (MSDN)
How to: Create and Install Temporary Client Certificates in WCF During Development (MSDN)
How to: Use wsHttpBinding with Username Authentication and TransportWithMessageCredentials in WCF Calling from Windows Forms (MSDN)
Also quite useful found via SO: Use Asp.Net Membership provider with a WCF .svc service (Alkampfer's Place)
I would at lest expect an issue with certificates/transport/etc. to fail with exceptions, but I can debug right in and over the WCF call. I have no security context/ user context available to me and when I use a user not in the two mentioned roles (which I do in the code example above), I don't get "kicked out".
My client app is currently a Web App, but will ultimately also serve a Windows Forms app and Test suite. I'm currently using the ASP.NET WebDev server and am running .NET 4.0.
Am I missing something?

I've put together some code that processes XML files as they're uploaded to the server using the FileSystemWatcher for one of my clients. The XML is uploaded every hour, and the FSW watches a set directory for new files. All is well and works fine in my development environment but I'm using my clients hosting provider (www.webhostforasp.net) and when uploading a new XML file it appears that nothing is happening? It is possible that the hosting provider doesn't allow watchers or calls from the Global.asax?
What would be the best way to find out what's going on there, considering that without running the site in debug mode, I've got no way of knowing what's going on with the Global.asax or the FSW?

I have watched the how to video on Creating a Custom Membership provider. So far it works great. My login control interacts well with it etc. Now i've created a Custom Role Provider. I've created a class that inherits the RoleProvider base class and i've added code to each Sub. My question is, what is the best way to implement the role provider, considering I get the Roles etc from the database?

View 4 RepliesApologies if this seems obvious, but after a week searching I can't find a clear answer to my problem.
I have developed an application in Visual Web Developer 2010 Express that uses the asp.net application services membership provider. It works well in development on my machine (data in the ASPNETDB.MDF database).
I packaged my application and deployed the relevant files with FTP to my shared hosting provider.
I took a copy of the ASPNETDB.MDF and restored it to the SQL Server 2008 on my shared hosting. I can connect to this through the Database Explorer in Visual Web Developer, but it doesn't contain any schema or data.
I know once I have the database in production I will have to make sure the connection string in web.config is poiting to it, but I don't know how to get the DB to production in the first place.

I have the code snippet above in my webconfig file. I am attempting to set the FirstName property in codebehind on a register.aspx page. Like this:
Profile.FirstName = ((TextBox)RegisterUser.CreateUserStep.ContentTemplateContainer.FindControl("FirstName")).Text;
VS says Profile is in System.Web.Profile Namespace. I then use it like this "System.Web.Profile.FirstName", but says first name does not exist in System.Web.Profile.FirstName namespace.
How do I set the property and later retrieve it?
I am trying to create an msi for a Web Service. I want the web service to be installed as a 'Web Site' not as an 'Application' under Default Web Site in IIS. I have code that creates a web site, but when I try to add it as a custom action under the install node of the msi, the code isn't getting executed. Reading about installers, it seems that anything under the install node gets fired after the installer has already started, if that makes sense. I want to be able to create the web site before the installer actually begins the installation process so that when the user comes to the window where he/she has to choose the Site under which to install the web service it can already be listed there and they'll be able to choose it.
View 1 RepliesI don't have any experience in web hosting. Recently I've completed developing my Asp.net website using Visual Studio 2010. The website retrieves financial data from Yahoo! Finance, does analytical calculations in code-behind, stores processed data into several databases, and allows users to analyze the stock market using those data. Currently I need to run some programs in Visual Studio so that new data get downloaded every day.
My problem is that I know nothing about how to do web hosting so I can actually get my website on the Internet. I heard that there are third-party web site hosting services, but do they allow you to upload entire Asp.net web pages with all the databases attached? What if I need to go in there, run some programs, and update some data in the databases, do these web hosting services allow me to do that?
If the answers to the above are yes, what are some good web hosting services that allow you to upload (I don't even know if "upload" is the correct term to use) Asp.Net web pages? By the way, my website is coded in Visual Basic, if it makes any difference.
