C# - Create User In Another Membership.ApplicationName?
Dec 6, 2010
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...

On the MSDN page for the Membership.ApplicationName property (which applies to an asp.net membership provider), it warns that although one can change Membership.ApplicationName in code, 'The ApplicationName property is not thread safe for multiple writes, and changing the ApplicationName property value can result in unexpected behavior for multiple users of an application.' They therefore recommend avoiding using it for a 'web application'.
This is because the default SqlMembershipProvider is written as a singleton. But here's my question: is it OK if all the threads in my application process are going to set Membership.ApplicationName to the same thing?
I'm thinking of having multiple applications on my IIS box, each with their own separate application pool. I want to point them to the same location, but based on the hostname, set the application provider to different things. Wouldn't this actually be OK? It might not be a thread-safe operation, but doesn't each application pool have its own process and therefore its own instance of SqlMembershipProvider? So, every thread that tried to set Membership.ApplicationName for a given SqlMembershipProvider instance would be trying to set it to the same thing (the provider that is appropriate for that hostname).

I have a custom security module which is retrieving the applicationName of the defalut Membership Provider. I am using this value for convenience only. I mean, sometimes, I will authenticate the user as per "Windows Authentication" where there is no Login Form, and yet, I need to access the "applicationName" of the membership provider.So, in some of my applications, I am not using a memberhsip, and I leave it empty. And I found out that if the <membership> is not defined in web.config, it will default to "AspNetSqlMembershipProvider" type "System.web.Security.SqlMembershipProvider".I can add an key in <appSettings>, but I like to using the applicationName of the default membership provider, becuase in other applications I am using Forms Authentication, with a custom membership provider.If try to setup a dummy memberyship provider, I will get error that the connection string is empty.How I can set the "applicationName" property in web.config if I am using "Windows" authentication, and I have no membership provider ?

Once the user clicks submit, how this function can be called ?

Each time I submit, the function is never called.

I 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
public override bool ValidateUser(string username, string password) is
{
//select hashed password from db
return (EncodePassword(password) == dbpassword)
}

Does anyone know how to disable a create user button in the Create User Wizard if the Terms and Conditions checkbox is not checked?
I have a CUW with additional fields (the data of which is stored in an additional table that I have added to the ordinaty SQL membership database) and I want the user to check the Terms and Conditions checkbox before the user is created.
By any chance, do you also know how to prevent the creation of the user if the additional fields have not been filled?
I triend with Java, code behind and many method but it still dont work: the user is created even if the Terms and Conditions are not checked.

why did asp.net team choose / as the default value of Membership Role application name rather than the project name that makes sense?
In addition, the application might not be deployed as the root application. It means that / is no longer
Edit 1:
For example: I create a project A first and deploy it. Later I create another project B and deploy it. If both projects use the default, they still work but it will be difficult to know which users come from each project.
For me, it is better if the default is set to the project name.
Edit 2:
I am talking about the applicationName attribute generated by Visual Studio in Web.config.
Why don't use the project name instead of / by default ?
<membership>

<clear />
<add name="AspNetSqlMembershipProvider"

requiresUniqueEmail="false"
maxInvalidPasswordAttempts="5"
minRequiredPasswordLength="6"
minRequiredNonalphanumericCharacters="0"

connectionStringName="ApplicationServices"
applicationName="/" />
<add name="AspNetWindowsTokenRoleProvider"
type="System.Web.Security.WindowsTokenRoleProvider"
applicationName="/" />
</providers>
</roleManager>
EDIT 3:
After creating two applications (i.e., one as the root and the other one as the child app) and both have the same applicationName set to /, both application use the same ApplicationID. It means the slash has nothing to do with site domain tree. My confusion has been answered. So... why did Visual Studio set it to / (that makes confusion for me) by default?
EDIT 4:
I have two applications. One as the root application and the other one as the sub application under the former. Both use applicationName = "/". I got the result as follow in database: So what is the meaning of /? If no meaning, why did VS choose this confusing name rather than the project name?
EDIT 5:
From this article, I will make the summary:
If we remove applicationName attribute from web.config for both applications, the ApplicationName generated in database for the root will be "/" and the ApplicationName generated in database for the sub app will be "/subappvirtualdir".If we leave the applicationName to its default value of "/" for both applications, both root app and sub app will get the same ApplicatonName of "/" generated in database. If we change the applicationName to "any name you want" for both applications, the ApplicationName generated in database will be set to "any name you want" for both applications.

I am currently writing a user management application which administers users in a single aspnetdb instance. This single instance contains multiple "applications" which all have roles assigned against the individual applications.
As each user can be a member of multiple applications I use Roles.ApplicationName to cycle through each configured application and then determine which roles they are a member of. After checking each application I set the Roles.ApplicationName back to the original application which is the management application.
The problem I am having is when multiple users eachview an individual application and a request for Roles.GetAllRoles() is made. Most of the time the roles that come back are for the intended application but sometimes the wrong application's roles come back due to other requests cycling over the Roles.ApplicationName per application.
I've since read that Roles.ApplicationName is not threadsafe and therefore should not be used in a web application but I would prefer to have a solution to this rather than having to rewrite the role model in the application.
Also, The aspnetdb applications are created via this administration system and therefore I cannot create multiple RoleProviders, one per application.

I 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.
