I'm all new at MVC, so how do I access the users Profile attributes which are defined in the web.config file.With WebForms I would normally do something like this:
[Code]....
[Code]....
I really can't figure out how to do it in MVC 3 Razor.Would really like to see a working example,
ASP.NET profile properties are trivially available to the code-behind of an ASPX web page courtesy of the HttpContext.Current.Profile object.
In a .svc web service, how does one bring ProfileCommon and paraphernalia into scope?
In asp.net (using MVC, but this happens in regular too)
Profile.GetProfile(username);
will update the LastActivityDate for that user. This is not intended when someone else is viewing that user's profile.
In the membership class you can specify whether to update this date with a second param, like so:
Membership.GetUser(username, false); // doesn't update LastActivityDate
Membership.GetUser(username, true); // updates LastActivityDate
Is there anyway to do something similar in the Profile provider without writing my own provider?
I'm having trouble accessing custom profile properties that I've declared in my web.config using the TableProfileProvider available at [URL] I set everything up according to the instructions but keep receiving an error stating "The type or namespace name 'Profile' could not be found" whenever I refer to the Profile object in my codebehind. My web.config is:
<profile enabled="true" defaultProvider="TableProfileProvider">
<providers>
<clear />
<!-- below is the asp.net default provider -->
<!--<add name="AspNetSqlProfileProvider" type="System.Web.Profile.SqlProfileProvider" connectionStringName="WebPortalDb" applicationName="/" />-->
<add name="TableProfileProvider"
type="Microsoft.Samples.SqlTableProfileProvider"
connectionStringName="WebPortalDb"
table="_ExtendedUserProfileData"
applicationName="WebPortal" />
</providers>
<properties>
<add name="FirstName"
type="string"
defaultValue="[null]"
customProviderData="FirstName;nvarchar" />
<add name="LastName"
type="string"
defaultValue="[null]"
customProviderData="LastName;nvarchar" />
<add name="EmailAddress"
type="string"
defaultValue="[null]"
customProviderData="EmailAddress;nvarchar" />
<add name="LastUpdateDate"
type="datetime"
defaultValue="[null]"
customProviderData="LastUpdatedDate;datetime" />
</properties>
</profile>
I'm having trouble getting started with the SqlTableProfileProvider. The documentation is here:[URL]I have set up my project exactly like the whitepaper example but I can't access the Profile.SomeProfileField. When I build the project it shows that the Profile object doesn't exist in the current context. I have included the System.Web.Security and System.Web.Profile namespaces. I tried to add a reference to System.Web.Profile but can't find that DLL anywhere to add. Can anyone push me in the right direction?
View 3 Repliesi'm trying to run a conditional statement in a class i'm placing in my App_Code folderthe condition is whether the person is logged in or not. I normally have two ways to do this in my masterpage and ASPX's
if (!User.IsAuthenticated) or if(Profile.username = "anonymous")
however neither of these things seem available to me in the .cs i'm making. anyone know what i'm missing? maybe a using namespace up top?
I want to access membership and profile objects and wants to access profile properties that I have defined in my web app web.config file, from a windows service. Anyone have any idea on how to do this?
View 3 RepliesI want to access membership and profile objects and wants to access profile properties that I have defined in my web app web.config file, from a windows service. I have used this code
foreach (MembershipUser user
in Membership.GetAllUsers())
{
ProfileCommon userProfile = profile.GetProfile(user.UserName);

But its giving the followin errors The type or namespace name "ProfileCommon" could not found (are you missing a using directive or an assembly reference?) The type or namespace name "MembershipUser" Could not found (are you missing a using directive or an assembly reference?)
I am using profile services to store some attributes of users registered in the website. Now I am making a display profile page for a user. The problem is that the profile loads easily when I am running the site from VS 2010, but it gives the following error when I run it from IIS7 on my local machine:
System.NullReferenceException: Object reference not set to an instance of an object.
Source Error:

I'm trying to update/create the user profile for a specific user that will not be the logged on user of the moment. I'm able to do this with the following code:
'Dim p As ProfileBase = ProfileBase.Create(Email, False)
I am logged in as user1, and while creating a user in which I have additional information which would store first and last name into the profile database. I have the following code
[Code]....
But because I just have profile like that, it is updating the profile of user1 not the new user i just created

I'm being stupid but don't know what I'm missing.I want to use asp.net profile and have a profile property.So in the webconfig for my site I've added:
<profile>
<properties>
<add name="Name"/>
</properties>
</profile>
But in the code behind a page I cannot use Profile.Visual Studio is just saying the Profile is not known in the current context.Thus I cannot do
Profile.Name = ....
or
x = Profile.GetPropertyValue(....)
I got the followig task.Create a website (Profile.aspx) in which the User can create and edit his profile.Well, I know how to write in a database, but how do I get the UserName oder the UserID to make a PrimaryKey?If the user is logged in a session will be started. In this session is the UserName but I don't know how to read out the UserName with ASP.NET to make an PrimaryKey. If I would try to read out the UserName with C# I must save it in an variable and give it somehow to my form.

Is there anything missing in IIS 6.0 that prevents me from (Insert into table) using MS-Access?
Explain: The application works fine under Visual Studio 2008 IDE the insert into table works fine with no error, Also I tested with hosting provider and works fine with no problem. but now I have published the same exact app in a dedicated server windows 2003 with
IIS 6.0 .NET framework 2.0 with latest service pack I gave IIS_WPG write/modify access to the folder where MS-Access database is located and database but at the time of insert an error pop-up. I need to install in the Server or settings in the IIS to recognize my MS-Access db is it some office runtime that I am missing. (BTW I am using OLEDB connection string in my C# )
Using System.Data.OleDb;
I can retrieve data off of it with no problem but when I try to insert is when it fails I thought the problem was Access Rights but I do not think is the case.

But to make it parseable I have to write it this way:

Are there better ways to solve this problem?
How does one create a .cshtml page in an ASP.NET web application? The option to choose Razor is obvious when using MVC - it appears when adding a view. But I can't seem to figure out how to accomplish this in a plain ASP.NET Web Application. Is it even possible?
View 1 RepliesI've recently switched over to using the Razor view engine, and I want to specify a namespace to use in a view. I've tried adding an entry to the Web.config file, ie:

But none of my views recognise any of the classes inside that namespace, so I have to declare the namespace in every view that needs it. why the Web.config approach isn't working?
If I look at the Razor View Engine, then I see a very nice and concise syntax that is not particularly tied to generating html. So I wonder, how easy would it be to use the engine outside asp.net in a "normal" .net environment for example to generate text, code,...
