Security :: .Net 3.5 Membership DB Not Working With .net 4.0?
Oct 11, 2010
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.

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:

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'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:

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?
Here is the relevant section of my webconfig:
<membership defaultProvider="AspNetSqlMembershipProvider">
<providers>
<clear/>
<add name="AspNetSqlMembershipProvider" type="System.Web.Security.SqlMembershipProvider" connectionStringName="ASPWebAuthConnectionString" maxInvalidPasswordAttempts="10000000" enablePasswordRetrieval="false" enablePasswordReset="true" applicationName="nvpumps"
requiresUniqueEmail="false" minRequiredNonalphanumericCharacters="0" minRequiredPasswordLength="5" requiresQuestionAndAnswer="false"/>
</providers>
</membership>

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
System.Web.Security.Roles.AddUserToRole(HttpContext.Current.User.Identity.Name, "TestRole");
and on entering the domain (on the local server) i got error:
The role '' was not found.
And on local host server
I get error:
The user 'TestUser' is already in role 'TestRole'.
But yet, even on the localhost i still cant see any indications that the user is in a role, as none of my rle login views are showing.
The role '' was not found.

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 have started to implement asp membership. I go the administration page and click provider. I have a database on a server on the local network that i want to install my members tables in. When i run the
aspnet_regsq.exe it doesn't ask me what SQL database i want to use and seems to default to my local SQL Server 2005 installation. How I change this to use my SQL Express database on a local server?

I have to implement a small webshop. Basically it's just a website with a huge backend ERP System and with the possibility to sell one (yap, really only one!) product on the website. The only requirement is a MySQL Server. The backend is almost finished (about 95%) and is secured with the .net MemberShip Provider for MySQL (the one in MySql.Web from the MySql Connector .NET).
Now to my question: I can set up the membership system easily but I do not need such things like username or password-question but I would need a reference to an address table to store the users home address. So, it is possible to change or customize the membership system to for eg. a unique customer id instead of the username column and set this in codebehind when the user is creating a new account? And is it possible to insert new users/customers from codebehind in an easy way? (I mean without checking each foreign key and inserting the customer reference to the userinrole table and so on...)

I am building a site and I want to use the default membership controls provided with asp.net like Login View Control etc. I don't want to use the ASP.Net Membership DB as I want to use my own Security structure and I don't want to inherit the ASP.Net membership class either. In my case how can I use these controls to aid me like how will a login view control detect if someone is authenticated or not.

I have encountered a very strange issue. Whenever I use the .NET membership provider to reset a password, it generates strange characters, which don't represent the password at all.An example of the password it generates is:
쥳⮚聙蟐֡ᑡ壈I#BAhy(ox32+y*
It does this on every password. Has anyone seen this before or know a fix?

I've set up a system with forms based authentication and using the asp:Login control. When I put in an invalid password I get the approriate invalid password message. However when I put in a valid password, it does nothing...just returns to the login page again. I'm triple checked the login info. There is no error message, and the invalid attempts counter doesn't increment. When I put a break point in the Login_LoggedIn event of the Login form, it hits it, but User.Identity.IsAuthenticated is false. I'm not 100% sure it should be true at this point, as I'm pretty new to .NET but it seems kind of odd.
My user database is stored in a sqlserver 2005 db that already existed. I've added a new connection for it.In the authorization I have
<authorization>deny
users="?"/><authorization>

am working on an asp.net application with membership controls and the SQL Server database. I have this put together, however it appears that adjustments need to be made to enhance security. Many websites have membership features, so I was wondering if there are some blog posts that describe the steps that need to be made to enhance security.

I have a SqlMembershipProvider store with Roles enabled. This is configured and has the user "devtest" in the roles "xxUser" and "xxAdmin".
I also have a WCF service, which I want to authenticate and authorize against. My problem is that:
the authorisation is not happening, code just executes despite the policy attribute I don't get any identity or security context so do not know who is calling the service I need: to know which user is calling the
method some degree of rejecting users if permissions don't match (ideally this should be performed
within the RoleProvider/MembershipProvider/WCF but can do it myself if I have to) SSL in transport
I have my service contract set up thus:
[ServiceContract]
public interface ISupportService
{
[OperationContract]
[PrincipalPermission(SecurityAction.Demand, Role = "ThisRoleDoesNotExist")]
List<BaseInterestRate> GetAllBaseInterestRates();
}
the code is simple enough:
public class SupportService : ISupportService
{
public List<BaseInterestRate> GetAllBaseInterestRates()
{
OperationContext operationContext = OperationContext.Current;
ServiceSecurityContext serviceSecurityContext = ServiceSecurityContext.Current; // is always null
using (xxxEntities entities = new xxxEntities())
{
return new List<BaseInterestRate>(entities.BaseInterestRates);
}
}}
My service configuration is thus:
-->
<behaviors>
<serviceBehaviors>
<behavior name="SupportServiceBehavior">
<serviceMetadata httpGetEnabled="false" httpsGetEnabled="true" />
<serviceDebug includeExceptionDetailInFaults="false" />
<serviceAuthorization principalPermissionMode="UseAspNetRoles" roleProviderName="AspNetSqlRoleProvider" />
<serviceCredentials>
<userNameAuthentication userNamePasswordValidationMode="MembershipProvider"
membershipProviderName="SqlMembershipProvider" />
</serviceCredentials>
</behavior>
<behavior>
<serviceMetadata httpGetEnabled="true"/>
<serviceDebug includeExceptionDetailInFaults="false"/>
</behavior>
</serviceBehaviors>
</behaviors>
<serviceHostingEnvironment multipleSiteBindingsEnabled="true" />
Having already configured the MembershipProvider:
<membership defaultProvider="SqlMembershipProvider" >
<providers>
<clear/>
<add name="SqlMembershipProvider"
connectionStringName="SqlMembershipProvider"
applicationName="xxx"
type="System.Web.Security.SqlMembershipProvider" />
</providers>
</membership>
<roleManager enabled="true">
<providers>
<clear />
<add connectionStringName="SqlMembershipProvider" applicationName="xxx"
name="AspNetSqlRoleProvider" type="System.Web.Security.SqlRoleProvider" />
<add applicationName="xxx" name="AspNetWindowsTokenRoleProvider
type="System.Web.Security.WindowsTokenRoleProvider" />
</providers>
</roleManager>
I have followed the instructions at these pages to the letter:
How to: Use the SQL Server Role Provider with Windows Authentication in WCF Calling from Windows Forms (MSDN)
How to: Create and Install Temporary Client Certificates in WCF During Development (MSDN)
How to: Use wsHttpBinding with Username Authentication and TransportWithMessageCredentials in WCF Calling from Windows Forms (MSDN)
Also quite useful found via SO: Use Asp.Net Membership provider with a WCF .svc service (Alkampfer's Place)
I would at lest expect an issue with certificates/transport/etc. to fail with exceptions, but I can debug right in and over the WCF call. I have no security context/ user context available to me and when I use a user not in the two mentioned roles (which I do in the code example above), I don't get "kicked out".
My client app is currently a Web App, but will ultimately also serve a Windows Forms app and Test suite. I'm currently using the ASP.NET WebDev server and am running .NET 4.0.
Am I missing something?

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 have a login control that is working beautifully on my localhost, but not working on the server. It validates my username & password - and gives me an error if I enter an invalid username/password. However, if I enter the correct username/password, the page refreshes, but does not redirect me to the "ReturnUrl" that I see in the URL. I've seen posts on this, but nothing that I tried worked. I've tried setting the 'MembershipProvider'attribute of the login control. I don't want to set the DestinationUrl...I want it to take what is in the ReturnUrl in the querystring. I don't think it's a web.config issue cuz it works on localhost??

I am using SQL Membership Provider to create user accounts for my web site and for some reason, the CreateDate and LastLoginDate fields are NOT saving the current time of my machine when I add a new user to the website. It is showing the previous day's date and the time is displayed as PM when it's AM and vise-versa in the CreateDate and LastLoginDate fields in aspnet_Membership table. I am developing and running the website via localhost on my laptop using IIS 7 (Windows 7). Does this have anything to do with my laptop's clock settings or is there something I need to configure in the web.config file or in IIS.

In what way, if any, can/does the 'membership db' play friendly with another SQL db.. or can I wire up the 'login control' to use a SQL DB to validate/get perm info?...
I believe the aspnetdb inside the actual site in app_code or somewhere is the 'membership db, correct?
Whereas I wish to use all info pertaining to logins/perms from fields in an actual SQL DB since my web app is using a huge DB for a factory floor's production management.
How do I authenticate this way? Also, I would like it to be in a master page, and upon login, redirect to another directory say, '/Members' which is locked out from anonymous browsing.
I previously had the following code:
web.config :
