I have DB (my.mdf ) with already created membership (aspnet_db tables). There are defined roles and users.
I would like to integrate it in my project.
I dropped *.mdf into App_Data folder. When I open app.net configuration (under menu Project) I can't see neither User nor Roles.
What step am I missing?
I am running windows 7 and NET Framework 4.
Problem is I dont know how to locate the asp.reg.sql tool that will do this using windows 7.
how to do this?
I've got an existing asp.net project written in vb.net. Another person has written a user control in c#.
the steps for adding that C# user control to the vb.net app?
I've tried copying them to the folder and using "Add existing item", however it doesn't compile the code behind at all.
This is the first time i would be using .net membership providers and i need to add some extra columns and chage a couple of existing datatypes of the exising columns.
my Q is:
1)can i do this without having to suffer down the road.
2)can i modify the existing sp's in sql08 or would i need to use additional sp's for the new columns that i add.
In order to better learn various techniques in ASP.NET development, I've written an ASP.NET app at home, which I use for learning. (It's a simple application we use to track our video library.) When I first started it, I didn't bother with adding membership to it. However, I've recently thought it might be nice to add the ability to allow family members to vote on various movies, etc. In order to track their preferences, I'd need table in the database, etc. (I won't bother going into the details.) So I was thinking that it might be good to add ASP.NET membership to this app, but I've never done that before. Normally, I've only added membership to an ASP.NET app when I was first getting it started; not on an established app. Can I add ASP.NET membership to an older app?
And if the answer to that question is yes, then I would like to use simple Windows authentication. This is a simple peer-to-peer network I've got, everyone has an account (profile) on the box that hosts the ASP.NET app, so I would just use that. Right now this app is an ASP.NET 3.5 app, but I could move it up to ASP.NET 4.0.
My application uses .net membership, I added some new properties but on calling Profile.save() it still save the old values, What i am doing wrong?

I'm currently writing a website in VWD2010 Express, which requires me to write a custom membership provider.
I've followed the tutorial here [URL] , which seems relatively straight forward.
I am, however, struggling at the stage where the custom membership provider is included in a site. Now obviously the tutorial writer is using a different version of VS to me, so I've had to adapt it somewhat. Instead of building the class as a dll, and referencing that in a new site, I've started a new site from scratch and added the custom membership provider to the Add_Code file (HDIMembershipProvider.vb). It is now required that I add details of the provider to the web.config file, which seems to be where I am encountering problems.
The tutorial requires me to add:
[Code]....
within the System.Web part of the web.config file. However, upon running the site I get the error:
Could not load type 'HDI.AspNet.Membership.HDIMembershipProvider'.
I realise that how you reference the class must have changed since the tutorial was written, but I can't for the life of me find the format I should be using, and trial&error has turned up nothing so far.
Its very easy to add users to roles by using the in built controls. but how can add users through customized login controls?. i have tried using
//MembershipUser m = Membership.CreateUser(name, pass, null);
We have a very large .net site using the sql membershipprovider offered by .net. We need to join this to a ruby on rails project - allowing login to both platforms. The ruby project shoudl be able to read and write to the .net's profile information - but additionally may store extra records against the user. The .net user record should always be the master, with logins anthenticated against this. What is the best way to open up this membership provider - via api or similar. We need something that is easy to snap into the RoR solution but secure enough and extenable enough to meet our needs. Is there some way to add on openID or similar to the .net project - and would this be what is recommended or is there a better standard to allow us to link our users.
Other features we would need to have shared are: shared email address, email verification email for both platforms. Both systems have independent CRMs and email systems so unsubscribing from these would also need to be linked preferably with an independent unsubscribe system.
Is it possible to more fields in User table If yes, how to do that? share sample code. Do we we need to change any membership stored procedures?
View 3 RepliesI'm not familliar with the membership provider class. On my create user page I have the following code

If I want to add some fieds like phone number and address, how can I do it? And what happen to the following function if those fields are added.
[Code]....
I would like to know simple thing, If i'm adding additional information to UserProfile such as: Country, PhoneNumber etc'.. So, I added a Table In my DB (which also Got all Membership Provider tables...)
UserProfile, and added Stored Procedures for it for Insert / Update... I would like to know, If I need to create in Business Object a Class for Profile Only? (Cause the User is managed Already by the Membership Provider) And Create for it Also in Business Logic -> ProfileManager with Methods that will use the Stored Procedures to Update and Insert Details? Do I need to do it like this? Or there is another way? What's the right way doing it?
The following code is used to add the asp membership tables to an already existing database instead of creating a seperate database for membership and having two databases in the application.
aspnet_regsql.exe -S .SQLEXPRESS -U username -P password -d databsename -A all
It works fine by adding the membership tables to the existing database that is located in the c drive, program files sqlserver folder.
But my database however is not in the c drive but located in my asp website app_data folder, so the above code does not give any error and the tables are not added after I run it. how can I now add the membership tables using the above code when my database is located in the website app_data folder,
I have a problem with my membership management. I moved the aspnet membership database to my MSSQL server and I would like to create an add user form not using the CreateUserWizard (I would like to add more information then in the simple CUW). I've created the form and I would like to use the Membership.CreateUser method to add the user. After running the script (VB) the user is available in the aspnet_Users table, also in the aspnet_UserInRoles table but not in the aspnet_Membership table. I'm sure that something is wrong with the configuration, I just can't find what.

I am wondering what's the easiest way to go about doing this. I am using the user signup form control that comes with .net and they can create user through the application and once they do users see the "members area" of my site.
However, they are only trial members. using my paypal form, once they pay for service, they become a paid member.. so I want to keep track of this in the membership table by having a column in that table: bit registeredUser. Do I have to create my own overriden membership class for this, at first I thought there was already a column like this called isApproved, but seems thats for something else because if its set to false user cannot even login.
I had been trying to solve this but there is a hidden key i wish someone point me to.
I had a simple membership database with users in first the Membership Provider configured for clear password to retrieve the original password .
Now a new requirement say that the password must be hashed and reset .
I configure the Membership password to hash , and Implemented the Reset Password Module.
My problem is as follow.
If the user is new registered user with the new configuration the password and the security answer is hashed.
also when I go and reset the password it continue to be hashed.
Now I thought that with new configuration if any previous user with clear text configuration , If he use the password Reset module , because my configuration now is hashed , I expected that the new password and security answer will be hashed . what happen is old user continue in clear text even if the configuration is hashed. so If I had new users everything is fine.
old users Membership Provider somehow know they had been stored in clear text and it keep change password and security answer in clear text . If I delete this user and create it , Membership Provider understand that everything will be hashed. I need to know how it know this , I need to migrate users not to delete and recreate users .
Also if there are no solution for that , I wish Microsoft Consider it in future cause it is a real user scenario, that can happen imagine a business system that related to membership user Id , deleting users and recreate them is not a solution .
I'm trying create unit testing for an existing website project (not web application project). I cannot access my under test classes unless I use accessor. However, if I use accessor, I have problem to initiate an object with passing arguments. I only want to create unit tetsing for App_Code. After searching web, and I found that I'd better to create a web application project using my current existing website project. From solution explorer, add new project ->using existing website. My questions is: what impact will have for my current website to create the new project? Should I just convert my current website to web application? If do that, will it cuase problems on my website? I am new on asp.net, still learning..
View 1 RepliesI was reading through this post here http://www.misfitgeek.com/op-ed/adding-asp-net-membership-to-your-own-database and thought to my self what the common practice is. What do developers using ASP.NET membership and authorization in their applications recommend as a best practice? creating the membership tables in the same database that stores their applications data or configuring a second database to store ONLY the membership information?.
My current setup is a different database for membership information ONLY but am thinking that increases the number of databases i have to maintain. If I have 5 applications using asp.net membership, then that means 5 more asp.net membership databases. So do you normally create the asp.net membership tables in your main database or you configure a separate membership table? what do you recommend.
I have an existing ASP.NET web application that is for public use and any anonymous user can access it. I would like to implement mechanism for users to sign up. The first thought that crossed my mind is to use the ASP.NET membership API.
So, If I use the Membership API:

I have an application in Asp.net and using sql server to store user information. There is a table named dbo.member which stores user information - fname, lastname, email, phone etc. We use LDAP for authentication. The entire application works on this member table. There is a unique userid(not password) associated with each member. I installed default aspnet_membership, aspnet_role tables by running aspnet_regsql.exe utility. Now with increasing number of applications, handling members' information is becoming nightmare. I hope Membership providers will solve this problem but I have doubts.
How can I integrate existing member table with default aspnet_membership table? Or should I integrate since it is very limited? Same is the case with aspnet_Profile - it is very limited and I have stored all profile information into member table. We store more information and we want to query all that information for a user. Should I create my own provider that will use dbo.Member table instead of dbo.Membership table and also with Profile provider?
I have used .net framework 4.0 to design my web project I want to improve some features on my web site and I decided to use MVC in my project.
I research about mvc I found out System.Web.Routing in .net framework 3.5 is wrapped by System.Web in .net framework 4.0.
In the other side in my host environment I have IIS 7.0 with all necessarily handlers mapped to .aspx and some other extension like .cshtml and support them.
So I think I have all thing for mvc migration. my question is :
Is it possible to move mvc by configure web.config and make some structure for content, view and controller classes but don't change any asp.net pages and configuration like appcode and appdata which I had before in my asp.net application.
Note, I don't want to change or update my old application to mvc I want to add some mvc controllers class and view to my existing asp.net project to use mvc functionality.
I have the following list of projects WebUI (WebSite) , DataAccess (ClassLibrary) , LogicLayer(ClassLibrary). Those of the project are purposively crated separately.But my scenario is, need to create only one solution file, then add all of the above projects under this solution file. So that i can be easiy interacted and changes can be made by opening solution file only instead of opening each project individually.
Simply all of the layer projects are under one roof means one solution. I tried it by adding solution first, then i added already existed project into this. But once after added already existing project the solution icon vanished by showing the icon of recently added project. By this way I could not add another project into this section too.Hope this is the way the basic real-time projects are created; to achieve the centralized control over architecture based projects.
I am trying to integrate an existing asp.net application with sharepoint 2010. I would like to be able to have a logged in user on the application access a document library via an Iframe on the sharepoint 2010 site. I want to use FBA on sharepoint. Is it possible to share the membership database from the asp.net application with sharepoint? If not, what would be the best way to accomplish this?
View 1 RepliesI have a website and a SQL Server Database. I want to use ASP.Net Membership for login and roles.
View 1 RepliesI created a ASP.NET project which calls a DAL class I wrote, to retrieve data to display on the page, most of the heavy lifting is in the DAL class. As you can see, it pretty straightforward, although I do have some minor validation code in my aspx page. how can I convert this project into a MVC pattern?
