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 want to pass create date in Membership CreateUser(..., ..., ...) method. As It's only providing no such method of passing custom create date of an user(s). Is there a way to pass it? I'm using .NET Framework 2.0. If there is no such way then have any idea my Microsoft is not providing this functionality for passing custom value(s) as store procedure is implemented all the table parameter(s).
View 1 RepliesIs there possibility to create new user with Membership.CreateUser but not to specify the user's password?
I tried with minRequiredPasswordLength="0" minRequiredNonalphanumericCharacters="0", but it didn't work.
I also tried with "" and DBNull.Value for password in the function but it didn't work.
Is there a way to do this?
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'm new to MVC and I have a question and I need your inputs.I have this portion of code inside a method (let me just call this MyMethod):
[Code]....
where I am simply using the default CreateUser method from default Membership class to create a new user. This method simply adds the user on the default membership table. Now I have another table which I call userDetails table and I am hoping to add additional information related to the user recently added on the membership table.I can simply add more codes inside MyMethod to do the above logic of adding the additional information to another table. However I was thinking that if I do this... and I delete the user using the ASP.Net Web Application Administration Tool, I may end up with orphan entry on my userDetails table after the user is deleted from the membership table (since the administration tool wouldn't know MyMethod and use the default method from Membership class).So is there a way I can override the CreateUser method from the System.Web.Security.Membership class such that it goes through this flow?
1. invoke the original or base CreateUser method (the user is now created during this step)
2. determine user_id of the newly-added user on membership table.
3. add more user-related information on another table example: userDetails table.
This way, every time I call the CreateUser method it automatically adds the necessary entries on the membership and userDetails tables.If I create my own membership class inheriting from the original class, it would mean a lot work rewriting lots of methods when in reality what I'm trying to achieve is only adding additional information related to the user. I tried modifying the default membership table from the provider database but I get and error during the user-creation process. This gives me the impression that I am not allowed to modify the existing tables... which would lead me to creating a custom provider.
I am trying to create my own membership system. Therefore I created my own membershipuser class and membership provider class. But I am getting the following error on Createuser method of My membership provider class; no suitable method found to override
This is how my CreateUser method looks like:
public override MyMembershipUser CreateUser(string username, string password, string email, string status, int registerd_on, out UserCreationStatus creation_status)
[code...]
Writing a custom membership / role provider and have to validate user with extra parameter to Membership.Validate. So, instead of Membership.Validate(username, password) I need Membership.Validate(username, password, client).
Is this possible with the existing MembershipProvider? I would have liked to pass a new MembershipUser to the Validate method but didn't see anything that would work for that.
I'm working with 2 sites (Intranet and Extranet) that share the same .net membership database (the standard out of the box version). The Intranet and Extranet site users are stored in separate "Applications" within the membership database. I create all users for both sites from within the intranet site. Everything seems to be working except that when i create a user for the extranet site I end up with 2 rows for that user in aspnet_users. One with userID (guid) that I send in and another with a different guid. I'm assusming that .net is creating an anonymous user. The intranet membership provider is the default.
I could delete this row through sql but am hoping for a more elegant solution. Any suggestions?
Dim objUser As MembershipUser
I am using the Membership class in System.web.security to create a bunch of users. Here is the relavent code
[Code]....
After running the above code the out parameter status says success. I take the userId (email address) as well as the password generated by Membership.GeneratePassword to attempt to login to my app, I get Login failed. What am I doing wrong?Note: I can use the ASP.Net configuration tool to generate a user and that user successfully logs in. I checked the table Application in the database to see if the application these users I am attemtping to register in code were being registered to a different application than the one I an running but there is only one application in that table.
I need to modify the CreateUser function because I want to pass an additional parameter to the function. I think the neatest way would be to edit the current IMembershipService interface so that the CreateUser contract includes my additional parameter in all calls to CreateUser.Is this the suggested approach when needing to modify the parameters of the 3 functions?
View 2 RepliesI have a CreateUserWizard control to be able to allow an anonymous user to create an account. Provided that all entered information is correct that the user enters, a new account is created for him/her. But also, when this user is created, I want to [b]also[/b] add the username to another table in my ASPNETDB database. How exactly can I "tap" into the event that creates a user and adds it to the appropriate tables (aspnet_Users, Members, etc.) and make it add the username to yet another table?

I am attempting to create a user programatically with Email as the username. My code calls one of the CreateUser overloads, passing only Username, Password and Email. It consistently fails with a status of MembershipCreateStatus.InvalidAnswer. How can this be? I'm not even passing it a security question or answer.

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 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.
View 7 RepliesI'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...
anyone can get to this webpage and edit my data. I have it set in the membership using the role managment to deny users * and allow users with Admin role however I can open up a new browser with out login into my site and type in the web information and it pops right up says Welcome:Guest [LOGIN] theres my data and I can edit it see do whatever and this page shouldn't be able to be seen.
What did I do wrong?
example www.domainname.com/admin/editmydata.aspx
am working on an asp.net application with membership controls and the SQL Server database. I have this put together, however it appears that adjustments need to be made to enhance security. Many websites have membership features, so I was wondering if there are some blog posts that describe the steps that need to be made to enhance security.
View 3 RepliesI want to migrate users and posts from an existing forum I am using to a ASP.NET membership table without using CreateUser. Basically I want to maintain userIDs so that when I migrate posts they continue to associate with the correct users. Is there a way to do this or would I be better off just using CreateUser and then finding a way to re-assign the post-by-UserIDs to the correct new IDs?
View 3 RepliesThere are lots of posts about this issue but I can't work out the answers as most of them are for C# or similar. I'm trying to automatically insert the UserId generated by Membership into a custom table. I have membership working correctly, as well as the custom table (I'm able to insert other things from the registration form). But I can't get it to extract the generated UserId and insert it into the custom table. Here's my code:

As you can see I've experimented with the parameters for inserting the record, but that doesn't work (I get an error about ProviderKey not being a part of system.web.security.membershipuser).
i have implemented custom MembershipProvider and now i would like to use CreateUserWizard to create new users.. the problem is that i want to store in the db more information that normally (e.g. first and last name). There is function:
public override MembershipUser CreateUser(string username, string password, string email,
string passwordQuestion, string passwordAnswer, bool isApproved, object providerUserKey,
out MembershipCreateStatus status)
{
throw new NotImplementedException();
}
which i can implement but it won't store first name etc. i found here: [URL] solution that i can overload this function and call it manually but the default CreateUser function will still be called in this case...
