Security :: Adding Membership Tables To App_data Folder Database?
Oct 30, 2010
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 am using C# Visual Studio 2008 and SQL Express 2005.
When I create a Website in VS2008 (File->New->Website...), then I add membership via the Web Site Administration Tool by creating a couple of roles and users; a database is then created physically in the App_Data folder and in the Solution Explorer, I see a plus sign after refreshing it and the database is shown.
And this is now my problem: when I create a new ASP.Net Web Application (which is what I want, File->New->Project...->ASP.Net Web Application) and then I add the membership, the physical database is created, but I do not see it in the App_Data folder of my Solution Explorer, and manually adding it by right-click->add existing item, then pointing to the existing aspnetdb.mdf file in the App_Data folder doesn't work, because it gets added with an yellow exclamation warning, and I cannot access the DB.
how to add membership to a VS2008 Asp.Net Web Application correctly, where I can add the aspnetdb.mdf to the App_Data folder in the Solution Explorer

I am using aspnet_regsql.exe to add membership tables to my database.
when I click the exe file it just opens up an XML file in visual web developer and does not start the wizard to merge the databases.
the run command where file is located is below
C:WINDOWSMicrosoft.NETFrameworkv2.0.50727
I just get the file below opening instead

Pardon if this is a very dumb question, but I was trying to migrate an existing ASP application to asp.net MVC, and followed the procedure from the music store tutorial (http://www.asp.net/mvc/tutorials/mvc-music-store-part-4), which involves adding the
database to the App_Data folder. (I had to restart my machine before it would work, since otherwise, Visual Studio thought the database was being used by another application.)
Now when I check in Windows Explorer, it looks like the database file was literally copied into the App_Data folder, and now I have two mdf files on my hard drive with the same name. What is going on there?
Will my MVC app ignore the original (real) database and use it's own private copy instead? (That would be bad.) Or is the new copy just for reference when using wizards that generate entity classes etc.? If the latter, what is the procedure when the real
database is modified, to update the application code?

I have secured some files on my webserver by putting them into the App_Data folder in the root (I do not have the option to secure folders using the ASAPI filter)The user gets access to these files by requesting them through a handler, fx. by requesting ~/Handler.ashx?file=App_Data/MySubFolder/MyFile.jpgNow, I want to make all the content in a specific folder called "Members" (a single subdirectory of the App_Data folder) available only by passing a specific password. That is by requesting ~/Handler.ashx?file=App_Data/MySubFolder/MyFile.jpg&password=xxxxIn my Handler.ashx I have written some logic seeking if InStr(context.Request.QueryString("file"), "Members") = 0 before sending the file.If inStr <> 0 a password is required.Is this a good way to secure a folder in and its content? Is there a way of getting access anyway, like using some kind of "sub-directory" line in the path (the same way as you can request parent directory by using "../../Myfile.jpg)? I know there will be a problem if someone fx. legitimately tries to access the file App_Data/Members.jpg

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'm new to .NET and while starting to learn ASP .NET MVC2 framework I see that you can create a .mdf file inside the App_Data folder and connect to it or you can connect to a SQL Server.What is the difference between these to methods of interacting with a database? What are the advantages/disadvantages of one over the other?

I am having problems getting the security.aspx to load up on my primary development computer which is using Windows 7 Ultimate and Windows IE 8. Clicking on the ASP.NET Configuration icon from the IDE in the Solution Explorer within Visual Web Developer 2008 Express Edition loads up default.aspx with no problem. But when I click on the "Security" hyperlink to access "security.aspx" I get a message along the lines of "The configured SQL data source provider is not properly configured". It goes on to state a list of potential reasons for this problem. One that includes not having the proper credentials or permissions. Im almost 100% sure it has something to do with permissions because I can't even get to the "security.aspx" page from opening a new empty project. I have recently installed Visual Web Developer 2008 Express Edition on my laptop which is running Vista with all latest updates and this issue does "not" exists. I can click the "ASP.NET" icon, load up "default.aspx" and click "Security" and it loads the page with absolutely no issues.
I have discovered a weird workaround but I don't like having to do this. If I add the following lines to my "web.config" file from any given project I can get to the "security.aspx" page without getting any SQL messages about improper configuration or permissions.
<<remove "LocalSqlServer">
<add
name="LocalSqlServer"
connectionString="data
source=.SQLEXPRESS;Integrated Security=SSPI;AttachDBFilename=|DataDirectory|aspnetdb.mdf;User Instance=true"
providerName="System.Data.SqlClient"/>
Basically, what I have to do to get to the security page to load without error is add a remove statement and then I just cut'n'paste almost the exact same connectionString from machine.config in the Microsoft.netFrameWorkV2.0.5027config directory. This does away with the "Improperly configured SQL datasource message" and gets me a new error message along the lines of "Could not create a SQL instance". My memory is fuzzy on exact error messages since Im not at development computer right now. However, when I change the User Instance attribute from true to false, then I have success at last.

I am trying to add a new database via the App_Data Folder and I receive an error described below.When I attempt to add ANY TYPE OF SQL SERVER DATABASE through the App_Data folder I receive this error "Connections to SQL Server Files (*.mdf) require SQL Server Express 2008 to function properly. Please verify the installation of the component or download
from the URl."
I can create a db via SQL Server Mgmt Studio, it connects fine, and I can see tables.
Visual Studio- Server Explorer connects fine to the Database, I can see the tables.
Im running XP SP3 w/ Visual Studio 2010 and SQL Server 2008 R2 Developer. I had previously removed SQL Server Express.
Why cant I access the database within my project, when Im able to connect to this fine within Visual Studio Server Explorer?

I 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'm trying to do a bulk insert of data into the aspnet_Membership table. I have existing records from a previous version of the system I am re-building in asp.net. I've been researching and asking questions, but I am still missing something. What is the best way to do this? I believe I need to grab my previous table and iterate over each record and insert into the new membership table via the Membership.CreateUser method. So far I have been unable to make it work. My code so far in the on click event of a button is below.
using System.Web.Security;
using System.Data;
using System.Data.SqlClient; [code]....
