I have a problem with SqlMembershipProvider. I have already created database aspnetdb. I need to add new user to database however one error occured. This is my web.config file:
[Code]....
and this is my application code:
[Code]....
the error occured in this statement:
[Code]....
I'm currently creating a small web app that requires users to log in before accessing any features.
I'm using Visual Web Developer 2010 and I have created a database in the App_Data folder of my project that I now wish to add the required tables, views and stored procedures to in order to use the SqlMembershipProvider. I have ran the aspnet_regsql file and entered the required details and completed all the required steps; however, when I return to Visual Web Developer and refresh the database I created, nothing happens, there are no tables or stored procedures.
Although nothing has been added to the database in my project, when I open up SQL Server Management Studio, my database appears with all the relevant tables, views etc.
Is there any reason why the database with all the required tables etc appears in SQL Server Management Studio but not in my project in Visual Web Developer?
I'm getting rather confused as I have completed this before on another project on a different machine and it worked fine.
I'm developing an ASP.NET application with Visual Studio 2008 SP1 and C#. I'm also using Sql Server 2008 SP1.I'm trying to add the tables created with the command aspnet_regsql -S (local) -E -A m to my own database.
If I run that command it will create a database (Aspnetdb database) with four tables. I want to know if there is a command that creates those tables in my own database (called myDatabase, for example).And, when the tables are created. How can I connect authentication to myDatabase?
I have a SQL Server 2008 DB with many tables filled with data and I used SQL Server Management Studio to generate a SQL dump by using the Script Wizard : Tasks -> Generate Scripts -> Script All objects in the selected database and also selecting the option to Script Data. I made sure to change the value of "Script for Server Version" to "SQL Server 2008". Then I created a new DB and ran the SQL dump on the new DB to generate an identical copy of the old DB. Then I assigned permissions to my default user to the new DB. Then I changed the connection string on my ASP.NET application to use the new DB. But when I run it, it throws the following exception -
Server Error in '/myapp' Application. The 'System.Web.Security.SqlMembershipProvider' requires a database schema compatible with schema version '1'.

I've been given the task to update an existing website. Currently the website has a login only for administrators. They administer everything on the site, including all "Artist" data. This is done using simple form authentication and custom user table. Right now the "users" table only has one record since all administrators use the same username/password (not good, I know). As the "new" developer, I've been asked to update this site to allow the "Artists" to register themselves, and be able to update their own information. Ideally I want to get rid of all the current security, and use the SqlMembershipProvider. My issue? I have the database added to my schema, but I'm assuming something else within the site is confused. When I try and use the ASP.NET I get an error: "Configured settings are invalid: Hashed passwords cannot be retrieved. Either set the password format to different type, or set supportsPasswordRetrieval to false.(C:Inetpubwwwrootsitessite1web.config line 21)
Right now there are no users, no applicatins even set up in the sQLMembershipProvider tables. I've been following the MSDN site, as well as some secuity tutorials on this site (ASP.NET), but none of the solutions suggested works for me. I've created a "Register.aspx"
page, and when I load it I get this error: "Configured settings are invalid: Hashed passwords cannot be retrieved. Either set the password format to different type, or set supportsPasswordRetrieval to false."
Here's part of my web.conf file:

The default asp membership provider only allows for one security question and answer. Does anyone know a work around to allow for more than one question and answer?
View 1 RepliesI have a requirement to allow access to an app with users being authenticated by AD. Sadly, not all of the users who can access the app will have been authenticated this way so I need to provide a mechanism whereby if a user arrives as the site their authentication is checked using AD and if it fails, they are handed off to a login page that will attempt to authenticate them using the SqlMembershipProvider.
So, to my questions: how do I go about configuring it? If I want to use profiles, can both membership providers share one set of profile tables (stored in SQL)?
I understand SqlMembeshipProvider calls stored procedures with 'dbo' extension
View 6 RepliesMy website has to connect to a hosted SQL Server database. The connectiostring, incluing username and password, is stored in the web config file.I have two questions.The first is that everything I read says this must be encrypted so that it cannot be read and used by others. Well, how would that happen. My understanding of ASP.net is that all the work is carried out on the hosted server and the rendered page is then delivered to the user. How would a user be able to view my connectionstring.Secondly, I have used some msdn vb.net code to encrypt the connection string in the web config file. Following on from the first question, how can I confirm that the encryption is intact on the published web.config file.
View 7 Repliesis there any method to get the database name from connectionString?
View 1 RepliesSqlConnection conn = new SqlConnection("Persist Security Info=True;Data Source="+txtdatasource.Text+";database="+txtDBName.Text+"; User ID="+txtDBUsername.Text+";password="+txtDBPass.Text);
conn.Open();
SqlCommand cmd =new SqlCommand("SELECT [ItemCode],[ClientDescription] FROM ["+txtDBName.Text+"].[dbo].[Bookings]");
cmd.ExecuteNonQuery();
This gets the folowing error ExecuteNonQuery: Connection property has not been initialized. i know it connects to the database
I have some Class A, which is data-layer in my web-application, and I'm using A's methods to accomplish Db operations. It looks like this.
[code]...
In case when my .aspx page calls 2 methods of class A during the postback, my page throws
"The ConnectionString property has not been initialized" exception for second method call.
I tried to put _sqlcon initialization into constructor, but it still throws exception.
I am in trouble writing connectionstring in app.config. Actually database name contains space in its name. following is the connectionstring i want to put in app.config. but when i do the same it gives me error. how to solve this problem ?
<add name="Connection" connectionString="Driver={Microsoft Access Driver (*.mdb)};Dbq=C:Program FilesInsigniaTime & Attendence.mdb;Uid=;Pwd=admin;" />
here, database is access db having name as 'Time & Attendence.mdb'
can anybody tell me how to show how long your connectionstring has been connected to the database?
View 4 RepliesI have implemented Forms authentication in an ASP.NET MVC 2 website
By using <%: Page.User.Identity.Name %> on the Site.Master page I can display the userid of the logged in user.
I would like to use this value and display other information about the user that is stored in a User table in a MsSQL database, like:
<%: GetFirstname(Page.User.Identity.Name) %>
Our application lets the administrator create new users. Since the administrator is logged in, I have set Logincreateduser = false so that the administrator is not logged out even after creating the new user.
The problem is :I need the userid of the newly created user to store additional details of the user in another database table. I see that i can get the username using Createuserwizard1.username; but how do I get the userID?
I am a beginner in using Asp.NET with C# and it is my first time I am trying to establish a connection with an SQL server 2005 database: Here is my simple code to connect to the sql server database,I am getting the text message set in the label. Is my problem in the connectionString ??? how to write it and ow to get the server name and write it correctly ....or how to specify the database name (all path or just database name??)
protected void Page_Load(object sender, EventArgs e)
{
SqlConnection connection = new SqlConnection("server = Saher;Database=Database.mdf;integrated security = true");
try{
connection.Open();
}
catch{
lblMessage.Text = "COULDN'T CONNECT to Stupid database";
}finally{
connection.Close();
}
}
As mentioned in this tutorial (http://www.asp.net/webmatrix/tutorials/5-working-with-data), I tried using my own connectionstring from web.config.
I got this error: "Format of the initialization string does not conform to specification starting at index 0."
The tutorial suggests to use: Database.OpenConnectionString("SmallBakeryConnectionString") method
Instead you should use Database.Open("ConnectionStringName").
Ref: http://cytanium.com/forums/yaf_postsm18_Connection-string-problem.aspx
The API Document is missing Database.Open method and also Database.OpenConnectionString info needs to be modified.

I checked my Username , Password and its Permissions for thousands time, and everything seems to be alright. I developed the Website by ASP.Net / C# (VS2008) and SQLServer2008 and I guess the problem is with ConnectionString, below you can find my ConnectionString:
Server=(local)SQLEXPRESS;User ID=myusername;password=mypass;Database=mydb;Persist Security Info=True
I don't know fix it. My code:

The erros is about objConn.Open() - I think...

The problem is with the User. But I don't know how to sort this as im new to all this.
I am using the create user wizard to create users that are then placed in the ASPNETDB database. Is there a way to delete users in the same fashion? I am using Visual Studio 2008 VB.NET.
View 1 RepliesI am dtrugling with the log in of .net. I have studied a wrox asp.net 2 book and it says add
<authentication mode="Forms">
<forms name="Wrox" loginUrl="Login.aspx" path ="/" />
</authentication>
<authorization>
<deny users ="*" />
</authorization>
to the web.config file. This automaticaly sends me to Login.aspx. The problem I have is I have added this line to the code behind in Login.aspx
protected void submit1_Click(object sender, EventArgs e)
{
FormsAuthentication.RedirectFromLoginPage(User.Text, false);
}
NOW this does not check the password but it should in THEARY send me to the page I was going to. It dosnt it stays on the login page.
i have using aspnet DataBase, and i know that i can Check if the User is OnLine or not By Using
Membership.GetUser.isOnLine; this is when invoke method in asp.net Page , But i want to Know if there is another way to Check If the User OnLine or Notfrom aspnet dataBase
