Security :: Membership Working In Local DB But Not In The DB From Hosting Company Server
Jun 28, 2010
I'm using membership that created by asp.net configuration when you create users with roles when you create a user for your website using asp.net configuration in Visual Studio
After uploading my project and creating the Database, I can't login using the users that i have created, i'm 100% sure im using the right username and password but still can't login but they are working 100% in my local DB
after few search in google i found the solution is to execute the following command:
So I developed a web application in ASP.NET and SQL Server 2008. Part of the SQL code I implemented as a .NET assembly (instead of t-sql) because it is performing intense calculations that are better written in C#.
Now I am ready to deploy my application, but I am stuck looking for a hosting company that allows this. Scratch out Discount ASP (see this forum post). I tried emailing other hosting companies and I either get no reply or they say they will not support it.
Any recommendations? What's the big deal with having CLR enabled in SQL Server?
i have been creating a website on my computer which has VWD 2008 and SQL Server 2008, i have membership and role system set up, (using the aspnet_regsql) and that worked perfectly fine on my compuetr.
Now when i was ready to deploy it on my web server, i simply copied the whole database, and added it onto the SQL Server on my server, so it has exactly the same rows, tables, data, etc etc.
Now, when i run the website via the domain, users are able to login etc, and my authentication code that redirects users if they are not logged in also works, so im sure it cant be a problem with the membership provider, as it all seems to work.
But all the users that were already in the set roles, it still shows them in the role in aspnet_roles table, but its not working, the thing i have in the roles loginview does not display, and even after running the web administrator tool, it shows that the user is in that role, but does not work (even while viewing on the local machine)
So i added code in a page_load event that would auto add that user to the role
I am trying to host a site on my local system and also tried it on my university server but am finding a great difficulty hosting the site. The site is made in ASP.NET C# and also have silverlight application in it. I am not able to configure or wither host the site on the server. I am having IIS 7 and Windows 7 as the OS. I have enabled IIS 7 on it. (I am using the SQL Server 2005 Express Edition and have almost no knowledge on hosting on IIS 7)
im trying to transfer my database from local machine to server, im using the publish to provider wizard in visual web developer to generate a scrip, im then using the generated script on the serever database.
I set up a really simple custom membership provider for my website, it is on shared hosting with 123reg which operate in medium trust mode. Due to this the membership provider throws an error. how it would work on medium trust on shared hosting? The hosting doesnt allow me to set the applications trust mode either.
if uploaded my hole web application to arvixe hosting company then when i try to run it it give me the following error (Does any one know what it is that i should do)
I have multiple sites hosted at a hosting company that does not support domain pointing. Right now I have all of my domains go to the root directory and Response.Redirect() to a sub-directory which leaves me with mydomain.com/subdir/. Is there a way to make my own pointer to eliminate the /subdir/ portion of the URL?
i AsyncFileUpload this is working fine in my local server but when i upload the files into my hosting server no file is uploading. this is my code to save the file.
Protected Sub tbnSave_Click(ByVal sender As Object, ByVal e As System.EventArgs) Handles tbnSave.Click Dim cmd As New MySqlCommand Dim cn As New MySqlConnection cn.ConnectionString = "server=localhost;User Id=root; password=papidm;database=jis;Persist Security Info=True" cn.Open() cmd.Connection = cn cmd.CommandType = System.Data.CommandType.Text cmd.CommandText = "Insert into PhotoAlbum (Photo,PhotoName,Descr,AlbumId) values (@Photo,@PhotoName,@Descr,@AlbumID)" cmd.Parameters.Add(New MySqlParameter("@Photo", "~/images/" + txtFileName.Text + ".jpg")) cmd.Parameters.Add(New MySqlParameter("@PhotoName", txtFileName.Text)) cmd.Parameters.Add(New MySqlParameter("@Descr", TextBox2.Text)) cmd.Parameters.Add(New MySqlParameter("@AlbumID", ddlArchive.SelectedValue)) cmd.ExecuteNonQuery() fileName = MapPath("~/images/") + txtFileName.Text + ".jpg" AsyncFileUpload1.SaveAs(fileName) End Sub
I am working on a new application that will feed off my application's DB that was written with .net 3.5 (really 2.0, since thats where the aspnet_regsql.exe lives)... I open up the application settings page on my old VS2008 application, and see all my 4000+ users, but if i link the membership to that database in VS2010 with asp .net 4.0, it shows 0. I have verified the connections, and i also noticed there is a net aspnet_regsql.exe in the 4.0 framework folder.
Is there any way to make the old membership work, or a way to migrate my users? If not, i would think this would cause a LOT of issues with many .net applications with many forms based users.
It works fine with IIS 7.0 on localhost but when i upload my site and try to access the rules written for url rewrite it gives me error message of 404 ..
here is my web.config file the require changes for Windows server 2003 IIS 6.0
I've uploaded a working application to my hosting web server and one page that I was working throws an error. In my web.config I have setting like this: .... <customErrors mode="Off" defaultRedirect="errorpage.htm"> <error statusCode="403" redirect="bannedaddress.htm" /> <error statusCode="404" redirect="filenotfound.htm" /> </customErrors> <compilation debug="true" targetFramework="4.0"> ....
and I am redirected to errorpage.htm even though customErrors mode is set to Off. I can't find any info about the error (other than it occured) in the log files. The question is: what should I change to be able to debug the app?
i have implemented URL Routing in asp.net website using article (URL...) and it working file offline on my local system but when im trying to run online (from my hosting site) then it is showing error..
HTTP Error 404.0 - Not Found..
The resource you are looking for has been removed, had its name changed, or is temporarily unavailable.
I have a web app that uses the Membership Provider to authenticate users.Everything worked fine until today... when I tryed to log in it failed. I looked in the database if something went wrong there and the user is deleted but everything looks fine there.I tryed to recover the password using the user name and i got an error that the user is not recognized.I tyed to recover the password (even though I am sure what the password is) but still no luck... (I get an error that hased passwords can not be decrypted)I triyed it in local host and guess what ... still the same... this is the provider section in my web config
I have now been trying for many days to get Membership on my website working but cannot. My aspnet db is a web sqlserver 2008 db.
My issues are
1). The MembersPages are still accessible by unauthenicated users in the deployed site. Using the local development server hyperlinking to a MemberPage does infact re-direct the user to the login page and the return url shown is the correct MemberPage selected. But on the deployed site clicking the hyperlink simply takes the un-authenticated user straight to the MemberPage.
2). On both sites, deployed and local, on clicking a login status control, the user is taken to the login page and is correctly authenticated, but the login page return url is always the default page and that is where the authenticated user is returned to even though the destination url in the login control states a MemberPage within the MembersPages directory.
3). In trying to overcome these issues, I have on several occasions deleted the login control and re-introduced it. Although the login control shows while debugging and when the site is deployed, on the login page in the IDA, there is instead an error message stating "Error Creating Control - Login1. Duplicate Component name 'Login1'. Component names must be unique and case sensitive. I'm not sure how to get rid off the duplication.
I have this code for changing a user's password when they click the password reset button (with extra code to log to ELMAH so I can try to figure out what is going wrong).
This is in ASP.NET MVC 2, using the standard aspnet membership provider, with a simple View like this:
New Password: ______ Confirm Password: ______ [Reset] [Cancel]
The route to this view is `/Account/Reset/guid`, where guid is the user's id in the aspnet membership database.
The key portion of the code is where it calls `user.ChangePassword()`. You can see that it logs a message when successful. The problem is that for some users, the success message is logged, but they can not log in with the new password. For other users it logs the success message and they can log in.
if (user.ChangePassword(pwd, confirmPassword)) { ErrorSignal.FromCurrentContext().Raise( new Exception("ResetPassword - changed successfully!")); return Json(new { Msg = "You have reset your password successfully." }, JsonRequestBehavior.AllowGet); }
The full code listing is:
[Code]....
Edit: Adding a bounty to try to get this solved. This is one of the most annoying problems on my issue list, and I have no idea how to proceed.
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?
In my site on every load some session is made through url and single page(say xyz.aspx) is call every time and on the basis of url we create session. When i click on a href tag , page start reloading ,url we created is accurate but data doesn't change every time, means some time it show data on first click, but some time after 3 or 4 click.
I say problem is weird because when i run this on my local server there is no problem, when i run this on my project (visual studio) there is no problem , but when i up this project on my online server it show this kind of error but not every time .
I use data caching to fill dataset. There is no problem in this website since we created this (more than 1 year) and we don't made any change on this page but suddenly it starts showing this kind of error so what kind of error this is.
Well I am having a problem when I have put my .NET 2.0 web site on IIS 6. I have used UrlMapping to redirect some old urls. It is working fine when I am using it on the VS local server port but when I deploy it to IIS 6, its giving a 404 Page not found error.
I've found that in a few forums they are talking about using Wildcard Mapping, but none of them provide me with a good explanation of how to achieve this. Added to this, what are the security risks of doing such a modification on IIS Level (if there are any?)
It somethimes happens that, when I use PrinceXML to convert a webpage to a pdf, the local ASP.NET Development Server stops working...It popups the message "ASP.NET Development Server stops has stopped working"
I have deployed an MVC application that uses ASPNetDB for Membership and Role Provider.
now when i browse to the site on the actual server where it was deployed to i can use the login page to login on to the site and gain access to views that are restricted to users like myself by role.
However when i try and access the web application from any client computer who has access to sites on the server since the server is on the same domain - i experience the following strange behaviour:
when i navigate to my login page and enter my username and password (as stored in the aspnetdb database)
and click login
the page refreshes (looses my userid and name) and it does not go to the view i requested.
it also does not show in the top right links that i am logged on.
it is as though it spits out my username and password and refresh the page and that is that!
Why does it work on the server where the site is hosted - but not from external clients?
i can access all pages that do not require users to be logged on or haev a specific role - but cannot log on and view them since login is broken?
I am working on ASP.NET Ajax site. Application is working fine when I run in my local machine, but same code if I place in Server then it is giving "SpanID is undefined" Javascript error. I found error is due to UI.dll file.
