Sql Server - Reference Membership Database In Another Database?

Jan 1, 2011

I am making a simple ASP.NET webpage for my school organization using VS2010. When I choose "New Website," I see that Visual Studio already sets up a database for managing memberships. I also have my own database (MyDatabase) that I need to use for the site, which contains information about the members of the organization (for example, email, phone-number, etc.)

I need to have a way to find out who the current logged-in user is, and allow them to edit ONLY their information (email, phone-number).The way I have considered doing it is:

- Add a field in MyDatabase called "UserName" and use it as a sort-of foreign key from the other database.

- Get the username of the logged-in user

- Use this username for my queries For example:

// (PseudoCode)
String loggedInUser = MembersDatbase.GetLoggedInUser();
var MemberInfo = SELECT * FROM MyDatabase.Users WHERE UserName=loggedInUser;

-Then the logged-in user will only have access to their information.

I'm not sure about the code yet, but I could probably figure that part out. I'm more interested in hearing if there is a better way of doing this. I do NOT want to merge the two databases into a single database.

Sql Server - How To Customize The Membership Database Tables

Jun 21, 2010

I want to add custom columns to some tables created by ASP.NET. For example; I need to add two fields such as FirstName and LastName to the aspnet_Membership table.

I can add this directly by editing the table but;

Is this the right thing to do (I mean; extending the table directly) OR should I create a separate table and hold the extra user data, there?How can I see these custom database fields as properties in code completion? example: membershipuser.FirstName;

Security :: Membership And Roles SQLExpress Database For Application Database?

Jul 11, 2010

I would like to use the Role Membership and User Security database as my application database too. That is, just add the tables and relationships required by my application's data access layer to the Membership and Roles Database to save on hosting fees, (I have to pay extra for having two databases instead of one). Of course, the connection string would have to be adjusted, but I don't see a downside considering the application's database is actually an Access database. What can I say, it was a requirement at the time.

Basically, I would like to do the opposite of this:

Security :: Migrating Role / Membership Database To New Server?

Sep 21, 2010

I have an existing ASPNET role/membership database created on SQLExpress 2005 (WIndows 2003 Server). I created it under the .NET 3 framework many years ago using the aspnet_regsql.exe application in full GUI mode.

I am setting up a new Windows 2008R2 server with .Net Framework 4 and SQL Server 2008R2. I don't want users to have to recreate accounts or create roles, etc.

So...

1. Should I backup the current database and import it into the new system, and if so do I even need to use the aspnet_regsql.exe application. (If so which version do I use, different aspnet_regsql.exe files exist in different directories (i.e., FrameWork, FrameWork64)

2. Should I just run aspnet_regsql.exe on its own and then somehow try to import the current data into those tables.

I am concerned that if I just import somehow the roles within SQL server will not be created properly.

DataSource Controls :: Copying SQL Server Database Has Not Copied Membership Stuff Correctly?

Jan 19, 2010

I have just used the Import and Export Wizard to copy my production SQL Server database, which uses Membership and Roles. I used the option to copy all the data from existing tables and views and did not modify the mapping in any way. Things do not seem to have gone well.....

My source database has a bunch of views with names like vw_aspnet_Applications,vw_aspnet_MembershipUsers, etc. The copy database has these listed as tables!I wondered if running aspnet_regsql.exe might fix things. I needed to run this anyway to create all the missing stored procedures for Membership, etc. However, it failed with the error:Setup failed.Exception:An error occurred during the execution of the SQL file 'InstallCommon.sql'. The SQL error number is 2714 and the SqlException message is: There is already an object named 'vw_aspnet_Applications' in the database.Creating the vw_aspnet_Applications view...I am a bit lost. All I want to do is to create a total clone of my production database for test purposes. Where do I go from here?

DataSource Controls :: Failed To Update Database "C:MEMBERSHIP.MDF" Because The Database Is Read-only

Feb 8, 2010

This is a very common error as evidenced but the very large number of problems and suggested solutions on the web. I finally got around it last week but can't remember what was the step that did it. At that time, I was building a web application rather than a web site. Is that the difference? As you can see, it is no longer in the APP_DATA folder and is named membership.mdf rather than aspnetdb.mdf. I ran aspnet_regsql.exe to create it and actually had it working and was updating it successfully. But for other reasons, I had to scrap the application and decided to re-create it from scratch as a web site rather than a web application. I had been using Visual Studio 2008 to build the web application but am now using Visual Web Developer 2008 Express Edition to build the web site. Unfortunately, the Visual Studio application will no longer open so I can't verify that the web application still works. Can anybody help? (Please!!!) BTW, ASPNET and NETWORK SERVICE both have full control over the membership.mdf.

SQL Server :: Windows Shared Hosting Error: Create Database Permission Denied In Database 'master'?

Mar 1, 2011

how I can correct an error. I've built the MVCMusicStore tutorial here:

http://mike-ciccone.com/Store/

The first time I visit the site and attempt a database connection I get this error:

Exception Details: System.Data.SqlClient.SqlException: CREATE DATABASE permission denied in database 'master'.

But when I refresh, it all works fine. I'm at a bit of a loss. I don't believe I'm attempting to create a database, but I realise that the error may not really have anything to do with that. This is hosted at GoDaddy shared hosting. The database was created and I used an SQL script to create the tables initially and populate the data. My connection string works as I can pull data from the database, but I do have
a feeling it will be a web.config setting that will correct this.

SQL Server :: Use Management Studio With Database Created Within MS Web - Connect To New Database?

I have created a web application and an SQL database using Web Developer 2010 Express. I have SQL Server 2008 and SQL Server Management Studio Express. In order to deploy the database to my hosting space I need to create a .BAK file from my new database. I think I can do this from with the Management Studio, but can't figure out how to get it to connect to the database. I have used Management Studio before to retore another SQL database and the only connection I see when I open the Management Studio is the old connection to the old database. How do I connect to my new database?

Security :: How To Update Database For Membership

Feb 22, 2011

I installed sql server express 2008 R2, no problems.

I created a database and added a table, no problems.

I'm using the entity framework, I created and am using the .edmx file, no problems.

I created a form that reads from and submits to the table, no problems.

I added the membership tables to the database, now I have problems.

I can still read from and update my table fine, so clearly the connection string in my web.config still works. But I can't add a new user or do anything with the website administration tool. It can't find any providers, and under security, it tells me it can't login into the database. When I try to register a new user, I get a failed login error, again for my database user. Yet I can login fine through Server Management Studio with the same credentials.

How To Add Membership Tables To Existing Database

Oct 5, 2010

I was reading through this post here http://www.misfitgeek.com/op-ed/adding-asp-net-membership-to-your-own-database and thought to my self what the common practice is. What do developers using ASP.NET membership and authorization in their applications recommend as a best practice? creating the membership tables in the same database that stores their applications data or configuring a second database to store ONLY the membership information?.

My current setup is a different database for membership information ONLY but am thinking that increases the number of databases i have to maintain. If I have 5 applications using asp.net membership, then that means 5 more asp.net membership databases. So do you normally create the asp.net membership tables in your main database or you configure a separate membership table? what do you recommend.

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.
