.Net 2.0 Membership

[Daniel Corbett]

How can I determine reason for the login error which is occuring?

I see no status codes or anything available in the LoginError event.

I have implemented the membership capabilities with some minor
modifications, the biggest being that I am using a different database name
from the standard one. I have created my users using the ASP.Net
Configuration tool which works fine. For some reason, I always get a
failure when logging in. I am sure I am entering in the correct password,
and I have deleted and re-added the user.

If I call GetUser(login1.UserName), I successfully retreive the user, why is
the login failing? How can I find out?

thanks for your help in advance.

hi,

asp.net emits useful information to the event log - have a look there

if this does not help - start an instance of sql profiler to see that you
really hit the database.

Yes, there is information there:

However, I can't see anything in here telling me why it failed? I entered
the correct password.

Hello Daniel,

Did you call GetUser(login1.UserName) after you got the login failing
error? If so, the user should be recognized and the error should be with
login control UI. Can you access other web pages in the same folder except
the login page?

Hi,

can you verifiy using SQL Profiler that the provider indeed contacts the
database?

 

[Daniel Corbett]

Yes, I did call GetUser(), and browsing the result in the debugger, I can see
everything...

I remembered that the database is automatically recreated if it's deleted,
so just to make sure everything was OK with the database, I decided to move
it somewhere else, so that .Net would automatically re-create it. This
worked, and after I re-added the users & roles, everything works now.

It seems there was something wrong with the database.

Thanks,

- Daniel
