Method Is Only Supported If The User Name Parameter Matches The User Name In The Current Windows Identity?
Jan 30, 2011
get the below error. My application was working fine until I probably modified something, but don't know what.

In the IIS, it shows that the web app (i'm using) is using an application pool that uses NETWORK SERVICE account for identity. But when I debug/run my web app, User.Identity.Name shows that my windows user login instead. I checked my web.config file, and it does not have Impersonate enabled. In fact, I set it to false, and it still shows the same.
am writing a web service in vb.net/asp.net 2, that needs user's name. It works fine when the url request is "www.mysite.com" but if any one has logged-in using "mysite.com" without a "www" and goes to the page that calls my web service, The HttpContext.Current.User.Identity.Name gives null. How can I resolve this problem?
For SqlDataSource I can configure the external source for the incoming paramater. For example it might be a QueryString, Session, Profile and so on. However I do not have an option to use User as a source.
I know that I could provide value for the parameter in Inserting,Selecting,Updating,Deleting events. But I do not think that this is an ellegant solution because I have some parameteres already definied in aspx file. I do not want to have parameters defined in two separate places. It makes mess.
So can I somehow define this parameter in .aspx file?
<SelectParameters> <asp:QueryStringParameter DefaultValue="-1" Name="ID" QueryStringField="ID" /> //User.Identity.Name goes here as a value for another parameter </SelectParameters>
So I'm making a asp.net login. I want the login name that people use to match an id in my SQL database. So that I can retrieve their information. But currently when I use the code below, from which I get the name of the computer I am currently on. However I would like the user Identity to be what they write in the username textbox at the login screen.
If HttpContext.Current.User.Identity.IsAuthenticated Then Dim userName As String = HttpContext.Current.User.Identity.Name Response.Write(userName) End If
So I looked for it on net and I think it might have something to do with my web.config file. As I'm totally new to asp.net I wouldn't know. However here's a part of my Web.config file.
I'm in the middle of moving a web application from IIS6 to IIS7. I've enabled "Windows Authentication" and added <deny users="?" /> to the authorization section of my web.config file. When the app was running on IIS6 my users where able to access the web app without logging in because their windows login was automatically recognized. This does not seem to be the case in II7. I can not get a value for "Current.User.Identity.Name" in my ASP.Net code.
I create two pages, the first one is the login page with user name and password textboxes - (not asp login control) , when clicking login button I check the login authentication, if it is true redirect to default page. in the default page if !IsCallBack then i check httpcontext.current.user.identity.isauthenticated
if it is false i redirect the user to the login page. but my problem is that the httpcontext.current.user.identity.isauthenticated is always false.
And a SQL Server database with ASP.NET Membership and Roles. I am using the LoginView control with the AnonymousTemplate and LoggedInTemplate to manage the user's interaction with logging in and out. The problem I am having is that I am authenticating the user against the database:
If Membership.ValidateUser(_userName, _txtLoginPass.Text) Then returns True and: FormsAuthentication.SetAuthCookie(_userName, False) sets the cookie correctly: FormsAuthentication.Decrypt(FormsAuthentication.GetAuthCookie(_userName, False).Values(0)) {System.Web.Security.FormsAuthenticationTicket} CookiePath: "/" Expiration: #1/21/2010 1:42:27 PM# Expired: False IsPersistent: False IssueDate: #1/21/2010 1:22:27 PM# Name: "jaymo " UserData: "" Version: 2 but when I check HttpContext.Current.User.Identity.IsAuthenticated it always returns False. If done this before and it worked fine. I cannot find any mistake I might have made or where something might have changed between ASP.NET 2.0 and 3.5.
We have an SharePoint site no login (anonymous) with a search module using AJAX. Now the users complains that the module isn't working. When I check the code (not developed by me), I find that the code only runs if "HttpContext.Current.User.Identity.IsAuthenticated=true". Could that ever return true on an anonymous site?
In IIS 7.5 server I have a website apps.mydomain.com. Site binding for this website is:
IP: All Unassigned
Port: 80
Host name: apps.mydomain.com
In DNS there is an ip address pointing to apps.mydomain.com. Site comes up fine when browsing to this hostname.
I want to get current windows logged in username from asp.net web apps. I enabled windows authentication and disabled anonymous. Using this ASP.Net code to test:
Response.Write(Page.User.Identity.Name);
However, browsing to http://apps.mydomain.com/site/ the application pool identity shows as the Page.User.Identity.Name value and not the current windows logged in username.
If I browse to http://servername/site/ then Page.User.Identity.Name will return current windows logged in username.
Is there something else I need to configure to get the current windows logged in username when using host header?
I have this web application where I need the currently logged in windows user Identity. I server on which I deployed this application does not support virtual directories. And I am not sure if that server is configured for "Integrated Windows Authentication."
I tried using: System.Security.Principal.WindowsIdentity.GetCurrent().Name; Request.ServerVariables["AUTH_USER"]; HttpContext.Current.User.Identity.Name;
All these work and retrieve the appropriate currently logged in windows username when the application isn't deployed. But when I deploy it on this particular server, these methods do not give me nothing.
The site is running on my local IIS 6.1. I Would like to add some features to pull information from our AD. My AD code works on many other projects and on my dev server. Here are my attempts at writing out the username:
Im using forms authentication and im trying to get the current username. I tried using Environment.UserName but I am getting "ASPNET". But if i change my application to windows authentication im getting the true username that is currently logged on. How can I get the true username that is currently logged on in the domain using the forms authentication.
I have created an intranet site in win 2008 server. Enabled Windows Authentication and disabled Anonymous. I want to get AD logon username(current win logon user).I used HttpContext.Current.User.Identity.Name and also tried User.Identity.NameI am accessing the site from client machine. I am not getting the client's logon user instead getting the server's logon user. But I want client's logon user only.I just want to get username. I dont need any login screens or bla blaWhen I run in my development system(XP), its working fine. When I deploy to windows 2008 server, I am getting problem(Getting only the server's logon user instead of getting the client's logon user).So, problem in the server settings. So, any settings I need to set to get this worked?I enabled Windows Authentication for my site in IIS management window. Disabled Anonymous authentication.
I am using Login control and validationg the user against SQL datasource. below is the code:
Protected Sub Login1_Authenticate(ByVal sender As Object, ByVal e As System.Web.UI.WebControls.AuthenticateEventArgs) Handles Login1.Authenticate e.Authenticated = IsValidUser()If IsValidUser() = True Then Response.Redirect("Orders.aspx")End If End Sub Here is IsValidUser Private Function IsValidUser() As Boolean Try Dim sql As String = String.Empty Dim RecCount As Integer = 0 sql = "Select count(*) from UserLogins where UserName='" & clsDB.RemoveQuote(Me.Login1.UserName.Trim) & "'" sql = sql & " AND UserPass='" & Me.Login1.Password.Trim & "'" RecCount = clsDB.ExeScalar(sql) 'If Invalid ==> 0 means no record is being returned by Query If RecCount = 0 Then IsValidUser = False 'MessageBox.Show("Invalid User Name/Password.", "Invalid", MessageBoxButtons.OK, MessageBoxIcon.Stop) Exit Function End If If RecCount = 1 Then IsValidUser = True Exit Function End If 'Error handler Catch ex As Exception End Try End Function
Here comes the problem validation code is working fine and it validates the user and redirects the user to the "Order.aspx" page
For example: I type Login Name: Nashy Password: 1234
Order.aspx page has a textbox which supposed to display the current user login name and i am usiong the following code for that
when i test it on my local PC it shows the current user like this DOMAIN ashyMastrew.. what i want that the textbox should disply "nashy" not my current windows login name. and when i deploy it to the server and access it from other pc textbox does not show anything.
i want to use dataset , or any thing ... to display Sum * where user= user.identity.name(not use gridvew, or formview) because i have more then 100 columns . i m newbie. realy , 1 month, it not solve, sometime , i want to give up
I have created a web services (WCF) and i have a webmethod that return a string that string is a HTTPCONTEXT.USER.IDENTITY.USER unfortunately it does not return any value.
i currently work on an asp.net mvc 2 project and noticed that inside an asp.net mvc view page i can get the user name authenticated via User.Identity.Name, but if i try to use the DsiplayFor method in order to display my model from a view user control, it just does not exist. Could i pass this parameter to my model using additional ViewData parameter that comes with DisplayFor html extension?
In IIS Manager center pane, there is an icon titled "Authentication" as follows: Clicking the icon, we get 3 items as follows: Right clicking the Anonymous Authentication and select edit, we have: Question: which one should I use? What is the difference?
I simply want to know how to manually check if the value a user has provided for the answer to their security question matches their current answer on record. I want to use the build in support of the ASP.Net membership and membershipuser objects.
I see that via the passwordrecovery control that the actual answer can be returned. However I am currently not using this control and it would take a good bit to integrate it as it does not meet our user's requirements.
In a worst case scenario, getting the actual answer (like the passwordrecovery control does) and manually checking it in our application would be acceptable.
A best case scenario is some sort of API where I can pass in the user name and the answer to their security question that was provided and simply get an indication of whether answer was correct or not.
