View 2 RepliesI would like to create a sync process between an ADSI table and aspnet Membership using Membership.CreateUser. However, I need to see if a user exists before importing. I can import as long as a user does not exist however I am having trouble checking if users exist and only importing if they do not. Here is my code so far.

View 4 RepliesI have a custom membership user class and custom MembershipProvider working against database. Due to security reasons the user passwords are stored in the database as hashed values. So my procedure

I am a newbie and using Visual Web Developer 2008 Express Edition developing a website with some SQL database and a membership folder.
The membership folder security was set via Website/ASP.NET Configuration and with Permission Deny for Anonymous users, and a user id and password was created.
However when running the website and login with the created userid and password, it failed to log in with error message "Your login attempt was not successful. Please try again." I suspect that the system could not find the ASPNETDB.MDF even though it is in the App_Data folder.
I have separately developed another website with Membership and User Login by following the example in ASP.NET Walkthrough in Learn Web Devbelopment, and it works ok.
May i know how i can change postion of Create user button in Create USer Wizard as i want to change according to requirement!
View 4 RepliesI am using a create User Wizard for registering a user and have converted it to a a template to capture additional information. In the CreatedUserEvent handler in Code Behind I am getting the UserName of the new user and their unique GUID key. This is then added to a seperate data table with addditional info captured from the user. The textboxes within the create user Wizard have validation controls. If the user has missed an entry these fire and it shops the process of creating the user.
BUT If I then complete the textboxes and then click submit it says the USER NAME already Exists! This is not what I want as the User just needs to correct the errors in the form and they should be able to keep their iniital User Name choice. Do I need to change the Event handler and if so am I still able to capture the USerName and Key so that I can add the data to the other non membership table.
I simply want to know how to manually check if the value a user has provided for the answer to their security question matches their current answer on record. I want to use the build in support of the ASP.Net membership and membershipuser objects.
I see that via the passwordrecovery control that the actual answer can be returned. However I am currently not using this control and it would take a good bit to integrate it as it does not meet our user's requirements.
In a worst case scenario, getting the actual answer (like the passwordrecovery control does) and manually checking it in our application would be acceptable.
A best case scenario is some sort of API where I can pass in the user name and the answer to their security question that was provided and simply get an indication of whether answer was correct or not.
I Have Question : Can I Edit Create User Wizard To Save Info To My Project Sql ? And Where Normal Create User Wizard Save Info Of Register?
View 5 RepliesI facing a problem here. how can I make the create user wizard category all the new user become normal user role? I have created 2 role which is Manager and Normal User. Normal User can't view the Manager page. But after i create a new user account, i can view manager and normal user page. I want to make all the new member registration will be normal user role?
View 6 RepliesA question has been raised concerning password recovery revealing valid user ids. Stage 1 of the password recovery asks for a userid and when progressing to stage 2 will display an error message 'Invalid user id'. In theory this would allow valid user id'sto be identified.Is there a setting we are missing? Something that would allow the user id and question to be asked, then a message saying the 'User/Question combination is invalid'.
View 2 RepliesI used the Create User Control to make a new user.
Is there a similar tool (I did not see one) that allows the user to edit their own profile?
If not what is the best way to do it? I have created user tables in AWAT.
I have used asp.net membership and roles in my application. Its working fine.
I have an (.aspx page) where i have placed create user wizard, to create new user dynamically.
The same way i have created roles in my application.
What my requirement is, how to set roles dynamically to a particular user from my (aspx page).
im creating a multi step create user wizard for new members but I run into a problem. If the create of an account is in step 3 how do I capture the values from step 1 and 2.

I have an administration website - the users of which should be able to modify users for a public site. This means the administration site has a valid membership provider, but I want to be able to access/change members in another site (and therefore ApplicationName).
First thought was to set ApplicationName on the Membership static - but that seems like a bad idea according to answers here: Changing Membership.ApplicationName in code - thread safety.
Second thought was to duplicate the MembershipProvider entry to the web.config - so now I can do WebSiteMembershipProvider = Membership.Providers("WebsiteSqlMembershipProvider") - but I can't now seem to get to a 'Membership' object which will let me (for example) call the standard 'CreateUser' method.
I tried WebSiteMembershipProvider.CreateUser - but it takes a load more parameters, and doesn't seem to do anything if I poke some values into it.
Am I nearly there? Or do I need a different approach? There's always the SqlProvider's stored procedures, I suppose...
In the site I am building we have standard users and superusers. A superuser can delete another user from the system and this should result in that user being logged out (if he/she is currently logged in). We use the Membership provider. Or actually the superuser doesnīt delete the other user completely but instead sets his/her as inActive by following code:
[code]...
But, that should not matter... What I want to know is how to make the affected user being logged out. I donīt need a popup or anything to be shown to the other user that he/she is just logged out, it is enough to check if that user is logged in when he/she tries to move to another page on my site.
