Security :: How ToTransfer Sql Membership Netdb.mdf From Dev To Production
May 18, 2010
After reading this post and the mentioned blog, I am having the exact same problem. However, my web config does not have a membershipprovider section. Not sure how I'm going to fix it
I m getting the following error when i upload my site to Production Server using Database in App_Data ASPNETDB.MDF
Server Error in '/' Application. Runtime Error Description: An application error occurred on the server. The current ustom error settings for this application prevent the details of the application error from being viewed [code]...
We have a ASP.NET application working on our staging server/DB. The application works fine. We are using ASP.NET Memebership/Roles, etc.
Now it's time to deploy the application to production. As part of the deployment, we want to copy/migrate the ASP.NET Memebership database to the production servers.
Can we simply do this via SQL Server's export/import functions? Will the applications IDs and role IDs that move to the production DB make sense when the ASP.NET application is deployed on the new boxes?
I have searched and could not find any article related to "How to implement Certificate Security in production environment".
I could able to Create sample certificates for client and Server on my local machine and was able to authenticate my client app with the certificates . These certificates are test certificates.
How do I do this in Production. We have a domain certificate from GoDaddy which resides on the server. How do I create a Client Certificate off of that.
we cannot login to one of our asp.net production website. Once login ID and password are entered on the login page, the site just stays on the login page without giving any errors whatsoever and without opening the default page.
I have an ASP.NET web application that has the following settings in the web.config file:
[Code]....
(The actual names are different, obviously.) I am not a member of the real "Valid Site Users" group which is why I am given explicit access.I am able to access the site without a problem while developing and debugging locally; however, I get a 401 (Unauthorized Access) error when I deploy the site to a server. The only way to gain access is to remove the <deny> element from the configuration, which is not an acceptable option.I'm certain the solution is something simple and I am just overlooking
Members cannot login when I move a site from development to production. I can see them in a page I made that reads the sql table.I checked the machine config file and the application name is "/" in both development and production. When I open the db in management studio I can only see new ones created during production. What gives, and how can I delete these 'ghost' users and re-create them in production so they can log on?
I have created the asp.net application and Hosted on Different Server(i.e Test,Development). its is an Intranet Application But When I tried to Host on Production the WebApplication dont work when I check the "Integerated Authentication" and when I check the "anonymous Access" i get null value for the HttpContext.Current.User.Identity.Name.ToString() returns null. and User.Identity.IsAuthenticated also return false. what changes do I have to make in IIS and Webconfig of my application so that it can run on ProductionSERVER
I just launched my application to the production environment. I have a section on my website that is only accessed by users in the role administrator. (Here is the code:
[Code]....
It does fine on the development application. But on the production app the function is not working. I checked the database and everything is the same. What should I do?
On the local development machine a number of users are administrators (using the asp.net administer website tool accessible via the login controls on the page).
When the site is copied to the production server, these users can still log in, but they are not administrators anymore.
I can use the same way as on the local machine to rectify this. And this works when the site is run of the development tool (visual web developer express 2010, i.e. local host).
However, the functionality (admin users can access certain websites (via if(User.IsInRole("Administrator") == true) is not working when the same code is run in the production environment real production server, not localhost). Somehow asp.net is not recognizing that users have been set to that role.
In my project i'm using the concept of impersonation to implement "File Upload functionality".i.e.
to save the file uploaded to a network share.This n/w share is accessible to an application id only.So i'm impersonating with that user id when uploading a file. I'm importing "advapi32.dll" and using the LOGONUSERA method of that dll to validate the user and get the token for that userid and then impersonate using the Token returned. THis approach is working fine in the development environment but LOGONUSERA always fails in TEST and PRODUCTION environments. It always return "0" which means user id is invalid and the token is zero hence i cannot impersonate. Is it something related to accessing the dll in other environments? Any suggestions to resolve this issue will be a great helpp for us. We are hung with this issue for the past 5 days.
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'm using SQL Server 2008 R2 Express and try to add ASPNETDB.mdf database to my web site project. However, the following message appears: "Connections to SQL Server database files (.mdf) require SQL Server 2005 Express or SQL Server 2008 Express to be installed and running on the local computer. The current version of SQL Server Express can be downloaded at the following URL: http://go.microsoft.com/fwlink/?LinkId=125883".
I'm trying to use the Membership.CreateUser method without passing a security question and answer. I set them to string.empty, but no go. I have my provider set to not require a question in my web.config. What am I doing wrong?
I am working on the MVC storefront Rob Conery project and I lost my ASPNET.mdf database !I would like to have the ASPNET.mdf database in my App_Data folder. I tried to include the db right clicking on it and including it in the project. But on the Server Exporer when I am tring to look at tables there are none.
This is my first membership provider; I converted the sample provider [URL] to SQL. I created a vb class provider and put it into the App_Code folder. After it was created I tried to modify my webconfig but the error pops up. I don't know what else to try, I don't know if I have missed something
I have installed Visual Web Developer 2008 Express Edition along with SQL Server Express 2008 on Windows Vista and Windows 7. On Windows Vista, when I click the "ASP.Net Configuration" icon in the Solution Explorer and then click on the "Security" link, a new ASPNETDB.MDF file is created in the App_Data folder of any new project I have open. The same actions on my "Windows 7 Ultimate" machine will result in a message along the lines of "Your Data Source is not configured properly. This may be because the server has an invalid name or you do not have the proper credentials or you do not have the proper permissions"(not at Windows 7 machine right now so this isn't verbatim)
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 created an ASP.NET Website that requires user authentication. I am using VS 2010 Pro and SQL Server 2008R2 Express. On my local machine I established login capability using ASP.NET Configuration, which works fine. When running the website on my local server instance, I can login just fine. The site now has a folder titled App_Data containing the ASPNETDB.MDF data file. My Hosting site requires me to make a backup of the local database (*.bak), upload the .bak file to their site, then run a database restor
my web site i have two databases, ASPNETDB.MDF and a self created one (database.mdf). (The don't contain a lot of data yet)But i need a relationship (foreign key) between a table in ASPNETDB.MDF and a table in database.mdf.So i guess i need to merge both databases first, would you just extend the "ASPNETDB.MDF" with the tables from "database.mdf" ?or better configure "database.mdf" for the asp.net Applicatoin Services and then delete "ASPNETDB.MDF"
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
I created a soultion and used membership for login and I have the site working fine you can log in and out and I can see that my roles are working. I created a folder called Admin and I created a webpage in there that I can edit my data table that I wanted to be able to edit when I am logged in as a user with Admin role thats working... well it works...
