How can one use his already existing ACL schema with MySQL's Membership Provider connector?I for one do not want to use the autogenerated table schema, but am happy to alter my own tables to adapt to ASP.NET's rules. For instance I want to use customn table names.

I have watched the how to video on Creating a Custom Membership provider. So far it works great. My login control interacts well with it etc. Now i've created a Custom Role Provider. I've created a class that inherits the RoleProvider base class and i've added code to each Sub. My question is, what is the best way to implement the role provider, considering I get the Roles etc from the database?

I have the code snippet above in my webconfig file. I am attempting to set the FirstName property in codebehind on a register.aspx page. Like this:
Profile.FirstName = ((TextBox)RegisterUser.CreateUserStep.ContentTemplateContainer.FindControl("FirstName")).Text;
VS says Profile is in System.Web.Profile Namespace. I then use it like this "System.Web.Profile.FirstName", but says first name does not exist in System.Web.Profile.FirstName namespace.
How do I set the property and later retrieve it?

I am building my first asp.net app from scratch. I have two different membership providers. One is a basic sql provider while the other is active directory. The user "role" is determined by how the user logs in. I want to use the Role Manager functionality of asp.net but I don't want to build the whole role provider part when I really don't have "roles" in my application, I have two membership types.
Is there a way to set the role of the user through the membership provider at login or in some way mark a logged in user as having been authenticated by sql or AD?
This is my first asp.net app, am I even thinking about this the right way?
How i can realise my own Membership Provider for my social network example project where i want to use more extended registration with new fields?
View 3 RepliesI am using SQL Membership Provider to create user accounts for my web site and for some reason, the CreateDate and LastLoginDate fields are NOT saving the current time of my machine when I add a new user to the website. It is showing the previous day's date and the time is displayed as PM when it's AM and vise-versa in the CreateDate and LastLoginDate fields in aspnet_Membership table. I am developing and running the website via localhost on my laptop using IIS 7 (Windows 7). Does this have anything to do with my laptop's clock settings or is there something I need to configure in the web.config file or in IIS.
View 4 RepliesThe default implementation is not very appropriate normally and I haven't seen so far a good implementation of a custom membership provider, probably because this is not possible.

View 2 Repliesi am planing an application that needs to handle different client logins. A user should be able to login under each clients url.The project will have a start page and multiple (database generated) client URLs.www.domain.com/ClientA www.domain.com/ClientB www.domain.com/ClientC
I failed using MVC Routes to build up such a scenario with dynamically clients so i used an MVC area for the client space:www.domain.com/clients/ClientA www.domain.com/clients/ClientB www.domain.com/clients/ClientC Is there any client support for membership providers? All i found is made for a single client environment. I would love to take advantage of the mvc buildin attributes for authentication..
I have models based on EF Code First and I want to use them with default MembershipProvider, but I don't know how to write model correctly, so it will don't erase all my data on recreating tables when there were made changes to model.
View 3 RepliesIn a standard ASP.NET MVC template application that is created by default in Visual Studio when starting a new ASP.NET MVC application there is already a built-in membership / authentication / authorization system.
Using web search one can find lots of info about how to work with a built-in ASP.NET membership system, but very often this material is a bit of an old and refer to ASP.NET only, not mentioning ASP.NET MVC framework.
Just for example:
http://msdn.microsoft.com/en-us/library/ms998347.aspx#paght000022%5Fmembershipapis
or http://www.4guysfromrolla.com/articles/091207-1.aspx
To what extent all that applies to ASP.NET built-in membership system applies also to ASP.NET MVC ready template membership system?
I am trying to deploy a asp.net mvc site. My hosting service provider provides me dsn database connection for my sql server 2008 database. I changed my web.config to use dsn connection using this modification in web.config.

</appSettings>
In my site I have used asp.net membership provider. I have all the tables of membership provider in my own database. when I deploy the site I get the following error:
My web.config file is as follows

We are using ASP.Net Membership provider for user management module in our WPF based application. It seems to be working fine. But now we want to localize our WPF application, and don't know how to do that with respect to the data stored as part of Membership Provider. Is Localization supported by Membership Provider ?
View 2 RepliesWhen is the LastActivityDate supposed to be updated? When I click on any other pages in my web application as an authenticated user, the LastActivityDate does not get updated.
I would imagine it should be updated when a user clicks on any page, whether it be to do with membership (change password, GetUser(), etc) or not. But the examples that I have seen, seem only to update it on ValidateUser().
http://msdn.microsoft.com/en-us/library/system.web.security.membershipuser.lastactivitydate.aspx
Under Remarks, it says to do it under ValidateUser method.
When do you update the LastActivityDate? Just inside ValidateUser()?
Update: Clarified question.
Now this might just be straightforward, but I can't seem to figure it out..
I have set up the Custom Membership provider, and gave it the proper connection stuff.
What I know is that it connects to the correct database, but I know for sure that it doesn't look at the correct table.
How would I set it up to use a specific table? As the table already has users in them.
The table name is: members_info.
the column names are: member___id(key), member_name, member__pwd, member_perm
member___id => Being the Key and the account name to login with
member_name => Being the users Name or Nickname
member__pwd => 10 chars long (for now)
member_perm => holds 1 of the following values: 0) User 1)Admin 2)Banned
now I know that the later one is to be setup by the Role Provider, and I'm sure once I know how to do the membership one that one is similar in some way.
So my question is, how do I point the Custom Membership Provider to the table: members_info and to use member___id for username, members__pwd for password (and possibly get member_name out to say: Welcome {member_name}! when they login).
===
Added info.
Members__uid is the key value as it increases on each new entry.

Since you can't tell it to use a specific table
How can I set it up so, that it works with the tool provided in visual studio? (Website > ASP.net Configuration).
As it now says 0 users, on the security tab. I want to be able to manage the users through here too.
When a user is registered in an MVC application using the default Register action of the Account controller, where is the user info stored? Can I specify that this user table be stored in the database of the MVC application?
I am reading about writing a custom membership provider. I want to have some linkage between application specific user info ( current orders, items the user has ordered ) and the login database. I want to hook the "register a new user" process so that a new customer is added to the customer master.
