I'm very new to asp.net and c#, I understand the basics but don't understand how to create a login system using C# to connect and login using a Microsoft Access Database.
View 2 RepliesI think my subject line explains my problem in a nutshell.. I have a login page, I login like I should and everything works.I logout and when I type/paste the address to the page, in the address field, I still reach it just like if I was still logged in..The page I type in the address field is in a subfolder, only suppose to be able to be reached by logged in users and in this folder,ith it's own web.config-file:
<?xml version="1.0"?>
<configuration>
<system.web>

I'm debugging some unexpected behavior and while tracing in to the .NET framework I see a bunch of stuff like this:
if (Logging.On) {
Logging.PrintInfo(Logging.Web, this, SR.GetString(SR.net_log_n_certs_after_filtering, filteredCerts.Count));
...
}
But (as expected by default) the execution steps right over these. Is there some way to turn on the logging? Or is that just something that the framework developers can do while making special builds of the framework?
I am new to using the membership provider. I have been working in a small shop that has very focused programming and we are starting to venture out as our needs have grown. My question is the following:
Once I have created the asp schema and I set up users. How do I perform database access using those user accounts? I know how to perform access using a database account (schema), but do not understand how to use a user that only exists in a user table to access data tables.
Do I use an anonymous account and control access on the front end?
How to I track audit fields?
I have created a login page which uses the Login control. If the user is not already registered they a redirected to another page to register. My client wants them to be logged in from when they register, and taken to the main page of the application.
How do I log a user in manually, without using the Login control? Am using forms authentication, and have the dbo.aspnet table and stored procedures already created.
Why do I have to log in twice before the following code works?
[Code]....
Im building a web application that charges for access on a per user basis. Ive used standard roles and membership for setting up accounts and logging in. I want to ensure that a client cant use the same user details to login more than once
ie if user abc1 is already logged in, someone else cannot login again using the same credentials
FormsAuthentication.RedirectFromLoginPage(txtUser.Text, false); After doing this, the user is logged in with the txtUser.text
But the question now is, how do i retrieve that user name from Authentication or whatever on other pages? is it possible or not?
Because i know that person stays logged in untill he logs out with this code: FormsAuthentication.SignOut();
And one more question i dont know is this one good for this or not how do i better check if the person is typed in correct name and pasword or not, with executescalar or executereader?
I Am using the basic ASP.Net controls. This worked yesterday and I don't believe I changed anything but when I came back today I could not login due to an error "Invalid postback or callback argument" which really confused me because like i said, it worked yesterday. I researched and found a solution to fix that was to set
[Code]....
I did that and now can login again however can no longer logout. The controls are all on the masterpage as posted below
[Code]....
I'm using MS Enterprise Logging Application Block in an ASP.NET website.
For production launch, I will set up a log listener in one of these locations:
Sql Server database
Windows event log
Text files
Which has the least impact on performance?
NB - I can't switch to Log4Net or ELMAH at this point, so don't suggest that in your response.
I have a login form from the membership and I am trying to make it so that it would redirect depending on role. I have tried to put this code under login1_loggedin but it didn't seem to work. how can I do this?
View 1 RepliesIm setting up a site with membership.
The db connection seems to work. I can create new users with the new user wizard control. And they show up in the databaser. But i cant log in. I use the log in control and just get "wrong password". I am sure i type the correct password as i made it very easy. here are my webconfig settings.
There is one thing i have no clue how to configure. The APPLICATION NAME. What is it? And what should i set it to?
<authentication mode="Forms">
Is there something here messing up my login functionality? I can't log in. Before when I was logged in, I couldn't log out. It seems to have started when I clicked on "Remember me". Could there be something conflicting with web.config and the aspnetdb profile provider service setting that was initially set regarding profiles/roles/access?
[Code]....
I have a requirement to log all/most forms authentication transactions that take place within my page. For example, if someone is kicked out because of forms authentication, I'd like to get their username, time when kicked off, and where this happened. Is there a good way to do this. Better yet, has anyone done this already and is willing to share some code or post a link?
View 3 RepliesHow can I prevent user to go back after logging out from any of the page of my website ? Even if the user press back button, redirected to the login.aspx page. Like we have seen in social or any other member ship sites.
View 3 RepliesI have implemented Membership and Role Provider in my web site. Membership and Role information is stored in database created from aspnet_regsql option.
I want to store the access rights given to the pages in ASP.NET Configuation option in Database inspite of web.config file and want to give page wise add, edit, view and delete rights that should also be stored in database.
Is there any inbuit class like Membership and Role to add page access rights?
I know I can use [assembly: FileIOPermission(SecurityAction.RequestRefuse, Unrestricted = true)] to limit user to access disk files, now I hope to limit user to access database and web.config file, how can I do?
View 2 Replieshow can I enable database logging in my ASP.net application?
I am using VS2010 (ASP.net MVC2 Project) and would like to see logging that highlights database activity between the application and the database, including database connection establishment (as I do have a connection related error somewhere).
I'm using SqlServer Express 2008.
I am trying to insert a string and random number into the database as hash sha1 then loggin in against it. the problem is if I use hash it wont login but if i dont use hash the login works fine... Code below.

I have a website built in ASP.net 3.5, using WinForms and AjaxToolKit. I have encountered a lost/corrupt session issue while using Internet Explorer 8.
Scenerio:
1 IE8 Browser Open, 1 Tab
--------------------------------------
1. Login, Redirect to Landing, Logout - WORKS AS EXPECTED
2. Login, redirect to Landing, Close Window, Open Window, Logged-in already - WORKS AS EXPECTED (remember me enabled by default in code)
1 IE8 Browser, 2 Tabs
--------------------------------------
1. Login, Redirect to Landing, Open new tab, paste Landing page URL, Landing renders. - WORKS AS EXPECTED
- Logout from Tab 2, Tab 1 logs out after AJAX update. - WORKS AS EXPECTED
- Login from Tab 1, Redirects to Landing, then Redirects back to Login page - ISSUE
[code]...
2. Close Window,Login,Redirect to Landing - WORKS AS EXPECTED
2 IE8 Browser, 1 Tab

1. Open 2 IE windows
2. In Window 1, Login, Redirect to Landing, then Redirects back to Login. - ISSUE
- Window 2 Paste Landing page URL, Landing page renders - ISSUE, STRANGLY NOW WORKS

I have a problem configuring web.config file. In root directory I have a web site that doesn't require logging in to be viewed (public section of the web site) and I also have a folder ("Administration") that needs logging in to get access to it. Login.aspx is located in folder "Administration".
The question is how to properly set up the web.config to connect Administration/Login.aspx with Administration/Default.aspx. I tried editing web.config in root directory by adding the following lines, but it only shows me Login.aspx and it redirects me to the public section:
[Code]....
Do I also have to add web.config in "Administration" folder and with which parameters?
I've set up two ASP.NET applications on a machine, their web.config files contain the same applicationName value in AspNetSqlMembershipProvider item so they share users and roles.
The problem sequence is:
user logs into application A,opens new tab in a browser logs into application B, his login in application A is signed out and vice versa.
Should I use a different approach to sharing login information between two applications?
In my web application I want to log certain user interactions etc, like "User ABC joined Group XYZ" Therefore I want to set up a logging mechanism that logs into a Mssql database. I'm now trying to find a good database design to achieve flexibility.
First of all, I don't want to log strings like "User ABC joined Group XYZ". I'd like to separate the content "ABC" and "XYZ" from the template. So I'm looking for a templated logging database.
Something like this:
table: UserLog
IDLog int primary key [code]......
I think this database structure would give me enough flexibility to add/remove/edit specific log types (like 'User ABC did something else'). For example I might want to add some information to a specific log entry for future entries. Therefore I create a new UserLogTemplate that references the same UserLogType. That is how I would achieve downward compatibility.
Is that a database design that will work?
I am currently using the built in ASP login function... the destinationpageurl of that login function locates to "loginhome.aspx" for all users... but for one specific user ("Admin") it needs to link to "adminhome.aspx"... just wondering whats the best way to do this? Can I change the destinationpageurl of the login function depending on the user or creating an admin role so "If membershiprole = 'Admin' redirect to 'adminhome.aspx' End If" or can I just add some code behind the login function so "If User.login.Name = 'Admin' Then destinationpageurl = 'adminhome.aspx' End If" think I have already tried this on the login1_authenticate event but it didn't work
View 3 RepliesI am implementing strightforward membership provider. I do not want new users to be able to login without being approved.
I have tried the setting on the registration wizard called DisableCreatedUser="True" and this does not work.
I also set LoginCreatedUser to False, and the user still gets logged in.
If I look in the SQL membership table, 'IsApproved' is set to 0 for the account, but they can still login.
