Security :: Can't Access Web Application Administration Tools
Oct 19, 2010
I am using Visual Studio 2008 Pro SP1. Every time I try to access the security tab in Web Application Administration Tools I get this message:
There is a problem with your selected data store. This can be caused by an invalid server name or credentials, or by insufficient permission. It can also be caused by the role manager feature not being enabled. Click the button below to be redirected to a page where you can choose a new data store.
The following message may in diagnosing the problem: Unable to connect to SQL Server database.

I'm working on a website where it should be possible for registered users to upload word documents. The administration of users is done through Membership and Profiles. When the documents have been uploaded, the following needs to be achieved:Non-registered users should not be allowed to download documents I should be able to control which users that has access to which documents I should be able to register which user downloads which documents I should be able to track how many times a document has been downloaded
Can this be achieved be using Membership and Profiles?

I need some fresh input on how to structure a control panel that I'm building. Here's a little background:
The purpose of the system is to allow the submission of online forms. The forms are stored and processed in a database. Currently there are 3 departments that each have their own set of forms, and each department processes their forms a little differently. The staff should log in and process forms for their respective department (so each department only sees their submissions).
Almost all forms go through a workflow of sorts: 'new submission'-->'in progress'-->'completed', although this may vary.
Right now I've got it mapped out to have a page for each dept. that displays the new submissions, completed forms, etc. (new.aspx, inProgress.aspx, completed.aspx). Here's the question--should I have only one completed.aspx page and use it for all departments (hiding and showing forms based on the employee/department that is logged in), or should I set up three different control panels with three different completed.aspx pages--one for each department?

As per the increasing security threats, my site needs extreme care in terms of security in all aspects. I know asp.net has built in some security measures (Anti-forgery token, cross-site scripting, authentication, roles), but that is just not enough.I need a tool to test all possible security threats (Brute-force attacks, .... IP location, browser info ... )and a framework (open source is better) that handles all these concerns and let you build upon.
EDIT,So to narrow a bit, my primary concern is protecting the "login" page from all possible threats.

login control portion of Murach's web dev w/ c# book. According to the books instructions, you create a Login.aspx page, add the login control to the page, and create the users and roles for the directories within the asp.net web site configuration tool. I still do not get prompted for user name and passord to access the pages I want to be secured. Why is this? Isn't the asp.net configuration tool supposed to edit the web.config file? I'm trying to follow the book to the letter and ensure that I am following correctly before posting for answers online. According to the book you do not have to edit anything or write code withing login.aspx page.

I have just installed Visual Studio 2010 trial. Previously I have been using Visual Studio Web Developer 2010 Express. Now every time I try to invoke the ASP.net Cofiguration tool either via the icon or through the Project File Menu item, I get the error message "An error was encountered. Please return to the previous page and try again." I am trying to develop a bog standard Silverlight Business Application. There are no other diagnostics. Is there anywhere I can look for more clues or anything else to do to alleviate the problem? or is this something peculiar to the trial version I am using?
I also think it might have something to do with the fact that I have created this Silverlight Business App on a directory on my D: drive and not the normal, default c: drive path and maybe the web sit admin tool is looking somewhere else. Could this have something to do with it? If so what is my remedy?

I get the following message while trying to access the Security tab in ASP.NET Web Site Administration:A network-related or instance-specific error occurred while establishing a connection to SQL Server. The server was not found or was not accessible. Verify that the instance name is correct and that SQL Server is configured to allow remote connections. (provider: Named Pipes Provider, error: 40 - Could not open a connection to SQL Server)I have configured my own data store following this guide. Which essentially tells you to run aspnet_regsql.exe to set up a data store in order to keep authentication data for a SharePoint site (which is what I want to do).This is what I've written in the web.config at the end of the tag <system.web> for the Visual Studio 2008 project initiated to deal with the Web Site Administration:
<membership defaultProvider="AcAspNetSqlMembershipProvider">
<providers>
<add name="AcAspNetSqlMembershipProvider"

We're planning to build a web application that needs to be highly secure because a lot of money and reputation is at risk. Therefore I'm looking for tools and technologies that in that endeavor. The tools and technologies should prevent things like SQL injection, cross-site scripting vulnerabilities, remote code execution etc.
Our team has a solid knowledge about such vulnerabilities. But every developer makes mistakes, and a simple mistake shouldn't lead to a security vulnerability. They should be prevented or detected by web application framework, application server, programming language, security library, code analyzer etc.
A simple example: If you insert data into HTML, it needs to be escaped so it's properly displayed and not misused for injecting scripts. Some web application frameworks put this burden on the developers. If they forget the escaping in one place, they've got a security problem. A good tool wouldn't just do the escaping automatically, it would even prevent the developers from doing it forcefully.
I'm not looking for recommendations regarding the firewall (we have a good one), hardening the operating system (that's part of the plan), use of encrypted communication (it will be the only option) and secure authentication (a hardware token will be used). Rather, the recommendations should center around the application server and the web application software to be built.
We also fully understand that writing secure software is more than just technology: It involves knowledgable people, management attention, time and money and software quality processes. So far, this is not the problem and not the focus of this question.
I should mention that we have a certain bias towards Java and .NET.
So what tools and technologies or combinations thereof can you recommend us?

Is anyone able to see Web Site --> ASP.NET Configuration if you are creating a web application using File --> New Project --> Visual C# --> Web. If so, how and where?
Base on what I've tried, the menu Web Site --> ASP.Net Configuration appears only if you create a website by File --> New Website.
What I am actually trying to find is the Web Site Administration Tool (WSAT).

I am building a web site and am trying to run the web site administration tool.
I have reinstalled SQL Server 2008 express and have run the command line administration utilites. When I try to run the administration tool, get the following error when I click on the security tab is
Failed to generate a user instance of SQL Server due to a failure in starting the process for the user instance. The connection will be closed.
I have ensured that I have user instances are enabled
When I click on Choose Data Store I get the following error
Could not establish a connection to the database.
If you have not yet created the SQL Server database, exit the Web Site Administration tool, use the aspnet_regsql command-line utility to create and configure the database, and then return to this tool to set the provider.

I have two diffrent webforms (ASP.NET 2.0) applications that both uses the built-in membership provider of asp.net. The two application uses the same database, but is diffrentiated by ApplicationName.
One application is sort of an admintool (AdminApp) of the other application (UserApp).
I am now looking for a way to login to the UserApp from the AdminApp and sort-of impersonate a given user.
I have built an interface to automatically login a user to the UserApp (URL with querystring), but I need to be able to access the username of the refered user in the AdminApp. I was hoping for something like this would work:
Membership.GetApplication("AdminApp").GetUser();
...but I am unable to find something that works.
Is there a solution for my problem? Should I use some other approach?
/D
PS. A fallback solution wouuld ofcourse be to send a username in the auto-login-url-querystring, but that doesn't really sound solid.

I'm trying to access an SQL Server Express database out of an ASP.NET HTTP request handler. The handler is run under ASPNET account and uses "integrated security" in the SQL connection string and so I get an error message saying that login for ASPNET account failed and so I can't access the database. This seems to be a very common problem and most answers say "grant access to you database to user ASPNET".
I only have Visual Studio 2008 and I can't find how to change access permisssions for a database. Specifically I use Tools->Server Explorer and I can see all the tables in the database but can't find how to change access permissions. How do I change access permissions to my database using tools shipped within Visual Studio 2008?

I am trying to find a good pattern to use for user access validation.
Basically on a webforms application I had a framework which used user roles to define access, ie, users were assigned into roles, and "pages" were granted access to a page. I had a table in the database with all the pages listed in it. Pages could have child pages that got their access inherited from the parent.
When defining access, I assigned the roles access to the pages. Users in the role then had access to the pages. It is fairly simple to manage as well. The way I implemented this was on a base class that every page inherited. On pageload/init I would check the page url and validate access and act appropriately.
However I am now working on a MVC application and need to implement something similar, however I can't find a good way to make my previous solution work. Purely because I don't have static pages as url paths. Also I am not sure how best to approach this as I now have controllers rather then aspx pages.
I have looked at the MVCSitemapprovider, but that does not work off a database, it needs a sitemap file. I need control of changing user persmissions on the fly.
