Disable SQL Membership Provider (ASP.Net Forms Authentication)

Mar 30, 2011

I have setup a trivial preview website for a client that needs basic password protection. I'm using Forms Authentication with the credentials specified in web.config.

Everything works fine on my box (famous last words)

However, when I deploy to a production website running Win2008, the authentication code attempts to open a SQL Server database (I have no reference to anything SQL in web.config). How can I disable this behavior so that authentication is based on the credentials I have entered in web.config?

Exception in Event Log

Unable to connect to SQL Server database. at System.Web.Management.SqlServices.GetSqlConnection(String server, String user, String password, Boolean trusted, String connectionString) at System.Web.Management.SqlServices.SetupApplicationServices(String server, String user, String password, Boolean trusted, String connectionString, String database, String dbFileName, SqlFeatures features, Boolean install) at System.Web.DataAccess.SqlConnectionHelper.CreateMdfFile(String fullFileName, String dataDir, String connectionString) at System.Web.DataAccess.SqlConnectionHelper.EnsureSqlExpressDBFile(String connectionString)
... at System.Data.SqlClient.SqlConnection.Open() at System.Web.Management.SqlServices.GetSqlConnection(String server, String user, String password, Boolean trusted, String connectionString)(URL)

web.config (relevant portion)

<system.web>
<compilation targetFramework="4.0" />
<authentication mode="Forms">
<forms name="appNameAuth" path="/" loginUrl="Login.aspx" protection="All" timeout="30">
<credentials passwordFormat="SHA1"

</credentials>
</forms>

Security :: Forms Authentication Through The Membership Provider Sporadically Not Working

May 3, 2010

I have implemented the .Net Membership provider with my website which is, for the most part, working well. However, occasionally a user will try and login and nothing will happen. There will be no error, they will just hit "Submit" from the login screen and continue to the homepage as an unauthenticated user. This behavior persists until they clear their web cache, or restart their machine... which makes me think it's some kind of cookie expiration error?

Does anyone have any ideas on how to troubleshoot this?

Here is the relevant section of my webconfig:

<membership defaultProvider="AspNetSqlMembershipProvider">
<providers>
<clear/>
<add name="AspNetSqlMembershipProvider" type="System.Web.Security.SqlMembershipProvider" connectionStringName="ASPWebAuthConnectionString" maxInvalidPasswordAttempts="10000000" enablePasswordRetrieval="false" enablePasswordReset="true" applicationName="nvpumps"
requiresUniqueEmail="false" minRequiredNonalphanumericCharacters="0" minRequiredPasswordLength="5" requiresQuestionAndAnswer="false"/>
</providers>
</membership>

Membership Provider Authentication Not Working Authenticating WCF Service

Oct 27, 2010

I 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" />
<serviceAuthorization principalPermissionMode="UseAspNetRoles" roleProviderName="AspNetSqlRoleProvider" />
<serviceCredentials>
<userNameAuthentication userNamePasswordValidationMode="MembershipProvider"
membershipProviderName="SqlMembershipProvider" />
</serviceCredentials>
</behavior>
<behavior>
<serviceMetadata httpGetEnabled="true"/>
<serviceDebug includeExceptionDetailInFaults="false"/>
</behavior>
</serviceBehaviors>
</behaviors>
<serviceHostingEnvironment multipleSiteBindingsEnabled="true" />

Having already configured the MembershipProvider:

<membership defaultProvider="SqlMembershipProvider" >
<providers>
<clear/>
<add name="SqlMembershipProvider"
connectionStringName="SqlMembershipProvider"
applicationName="xxx"
type="System.Web.Security.SqlMembershipProvider" />
</providers>
</membership>
<roleManager enabled="true">
<providers>
<clear />
<add connectionStringName="SqlMembershipProvider" applicationName="xxx"
name="AspNetSqlRoleProvider" type="System.Web.Security.SqlRoleProvider" />
<add applicationName="xxx" name="AspNetWindowsTokenRoleProvider
type="System.Web.Security.WindowsTokenRoleProvider" />
</providers>
</roleManager>

I have followed the instructions at these pages to the letter:

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?

Iis6 - Application With Windows Authentication And Custom Membership Provider Advice

Feb 15, 2011

I've been asked to upgrade a few applications and I'm planning on merging all of them into one asp.net application. I'm fine with this decision and have spoken with fellow workers and they also think it's the best option to go with.

The application will be accessed from a small group of users which belong to a larger domain. I'm currently planning on using Windows authentication and only allow this small set of users to access the asp.net application. Also there must be some role management, so that only certain users can view certain functionality.

I really don't want to have many different windows groups; so I want to avoid having to assign different windows groups to different folders and control permissions in the web.config.

What I'd like to do is:

- Assign one windows group to the small group of users who will access the page.

- Create a custom membership provider and control the user who accesses the application. Depending on the user I will then assign his current set of roles.

- Add an application setting to the web.config, with the name of the current administrator, so if he logs in, he will be assigned all roles, and will be able to create and assign roles to other users.

Net SQL Membership Provider Custom Provider Property

Dec 16, 2010

<profile>
<providers>
<clear/>
<add name="AspNetSqlProfileProvider" type="System.Web.Profile.SqlProfileProvider" connectionStringName="ApplicationServices" applicationName="/"/>
</providers>
<properties>
<add name="FirstName"/>
<add name="LastName"/>
</properties>
</profile>

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?

Security :: Use Membership Provider In Forms Application Without Defining An App.config?

Feb 17, 2011

I have a small windows forms application that uses the membership provider that is defined in my app.config file. I want to get rid of my app.config file and initialize the membership provider completely from code. The reason behind this is because I want to be able to dynamically connect to different databases containing asp.net user tables and I want the user to be able to enter the desired database information into a text box at run time. Is this possible or is it required that I have an app.config file?

C# - Disable Authentication On Subfolder Of An App Using Windows Authentication

Apr 26, 2010

Is it possible to disable windows authentication on one or more subfolders of an ASP.net application using windows authentication?

For example:

A website contains several other folders that contain parts of the overall application: /frontend,/backend, /login

The bin folder is on the same level as these subfolder, i.e. the root of the website.

All of these subfolders contain pages that use binaries that reside in the bin folder of the root of the website.

The user must input windows credentials when visiting a page in the backend folder, but not when visiting a page in the login or frontend folder.

C# - Use Membership Provider To Set Role?

Mar 4, 2011

I am building my first asp.net app from scratch. I have two different membership providers. One is a basic sql provider while the other is active directory. The user "role" is determined by how the user logs in. I want to use the Role Manager functionality of asp.net but I don't want to build the whole role provider part when I really don't have "roles" in my application, I have two membership types.

Is there a way to set the role of the user through the membership provider at login or in some way mark a logged in user as having been authenticated by sql or AD?

This is my first asp.net app, am I even thinking about this the right way?

I am using SQL Membership Provider to create user accounts for my web site and for some reason, the CreateDate and LastLoginDate fields are NOT saving the current time of my machine when I add a new user to the website. It is showing the previous day's date and the time is displayed as PM when it's AM and vise-versa in the CreateDate and LastLoginDate fields in aspnet_Membership table. I am developing and running the website via localhost on my laptop using IIS 7 (Windows 7). Does this have anything to do with my laptop's clock settings or is there something I need to configure in the web.config file or in IIS.

MVC And Custom Membership Provider?

Mar 22, 2011

i am planing an application that needs to handle different client logins. A user should be able to login under each clients url.The project will have a start page and multiple (database generated) client URLs.www.domain.com/ClientA www.domain.com/ClientB www.domain.com/ClientC
I failed using MVC Routes to build up such a scenario with dynamically clients so i used an MVC area for the client space:www.domain.com/clients/ClientA www.domain.com/clients/ClientB www.domain.com/clients/ClientC Is there any client support for membership providers? All i found is made for a single client environment. I would love to take advantage of the mvc buildin attributes for authentication..
