I have a site with roles/membership working fine on my local machine, but I am having serious trouble deploying it to a shared host. My hosting provides a sql 2000 database, but the user created for it that I use is not dbo. I am errors when I try to access my site such as Could not find stored procedure 'dbo.aspnet_CheckSchemaVersion'The procedure was created under my user, so it's there, but it's full name ia myusername.aspnet_CheckSchemaVersionHow can I tell the asp.net membership/role provider to use my username instead of dbo when it looks for objects? Thanks
I have several roles on a database and want to find out to which roles a certain user belongs to. What's the SP to get this information?
Background: I have a table where I store some application specific permissions for the different roles. I use the same grant/deny/revoke logic like in SQL server. These are permissions that cannot be mapped to a SP or a table. In a query I want to get all the permission records for the role that a user belongs to.
hello, I have developed a website using asp.net 2.0 and sql server 2005 express edition. I have used the built-in membership, roles and login controls in my website. now i need to change the database server. i have to use sql server 2000 instead. as asp.net 2.0 uses the ASPNETDB.mdf for member,roles and login controls, so how can i do it? i can easily export the database from 2005 to 2000 but how my application controls will know where to look at for those data. I am clueless. please help me. thanks in advance.
I am new user of SQL Server. I have some problems with these words. I want to make my database works in my specified permissions. I will specify permissions with schemas and these schema wants an owner. I want this owner should be my user. When creating a user it needs a valid login. I am selecting my login and it occurs and error says this login has an different user. I am specifying permissions with roles. But i can't make association all of them. I hope i told my problem to you as well. If you explain these words to me and tell me how can i do my database's works with my own schemas, users and roles i'll be grateful. Thanks for advices.
Apologies if my post does not fit into this forum. I initially tried the SQL Server Data Access forum but I now think my question is more security related.
Is it possible for a web user who has been successfully authenticated with forms authentication to be authorised to use a SQL Server 2000 role depending on a particular ASP.NET 2.0 role that they have been authorised to use? I understand that that I can assign a SQL Server 2000 role to the ASPNET or NETWORK SERVICE account but this will grant access to anonymous web users to the database role. I can ensure that I only call stored procedures which access sensitive data in web pages that are in restricted by ASP.NET roles. However, it would be nice to also restrict stored procedures via the ASP.NET 2.0 Forms Authentication roles.
If this is not possible have you got any bright ideas how I could restrict access to stored procedures who are anonymous web users.
I'm developing an ASP.NET2.0 application which accesses a SQL Server 2005 Express database. I plan to use integrated security for access to the database.
I'm confused about the relationships between Windows groups, the ASP.NET web.config file <allow roles=.../> and SQL Server roles.
I would like to create a Windows group to which I can assign multiple users and grant that group access to a Web Site using windows authentication and also grant that windows group access to the database my web application uses.
I have gotten the combination of Windows Authentication to the web site and to the database to work for a specific windows user but I am having trouble determining the combination of database security entities I must create to allow access to my database by members of the windows group.
For a Windows user:
1. Create Windows user
In SQL Express
2. CREATE LOGIN FROM WINDOWS WITH DEFAULT_DATABASE =
3. CREATE USER FOR LOGIN
4. CREATE ROLE
5. EXEC sp_addrolemember <role-name> <user-name>
For a Windows group, what would be the equivalent commands necessary to grant a windows group access to my database? Specifying the Windows Group name in sp_addrolemember does not appear to be sufficient even though the documentation states that a windows group name is a valid value for the member name argument.
After reading Books Online, I am still confused with Database Role vs Application role.
My intention is to control the end users' authority on the database, where the end users will access through Winforms client application. With proper assignment of schema and database roles to an user, I believe this will enough to control the permisison of an user.
If this is the case, why Application role exists? When and why should I use Application Role? How is it different from Fixed Database Role?
In my site, when a user registers, I need to create rows in additional tables besides aspnet_Users. So, I need to be able to pass the generated userId guid to subsequent SqlCommands. I'm having a terrible time with this. What's the correct way to set up a SqlParameter so that it will accept a guid? I keep getting this error: "Conversion failed when converting from a character string to uniqueidentifier." I've tried creating the parameter both with and without a SqlDbType. cmd.Parameters.AddWithValue(paramName, guid); and SqlParameter p = new SqlParameter(paramName);p.SqlDbType = SqlDbType.Guid;cmd.Parameters.Add(p); and I get the same error either way. Driving me nuts! Any help appreciated.
Hi! Can anyone say which ms sql server predefined roles are similar to the following oracle predefined roles: dba, connect, resource. I already know that sysadmin in MS SQL Server is the same as DBA in Oracle but what about the rest? Thanks a lot.
I am in the process of locking down the SQL Server in an environment that is considered to be in production (pilot stages) and there is no staging or test environment that mirrors it. I need assistance in determining the server and database roles to assign to existing logins, most of which currently have sa and dbowner rights. Because it is not a development environment, I need to be sure that downgrading the server and/or database level permissions will not break any functionality.
I'm starting with the logins that have the SA fixed server role. These logins need to be able to install applications that require the use of a backend database, which will be stored on SQL Server. In addition, through the installation process a new login/password for the newly created database(s) is normally created. For the existing logins with the SA fixed server role, will downgrading to the securityadmin and dbcreator roles be sufficient to facilitate those needs, or are those too much/ too little? And should any user account ever be granted the SA role? If so, what questions could I ask to determine this need?
Since these install process for these applications usually prompt to install using SA or local system account to authenticate to SQL to create the new database(s), that account should have securityadmin and dbcreator roles to create the database and its tables, as well as add a new login to that database.
Please address this question, keeping in mind that the logins will only be performing the described actions, installing apps using SQL Server as the backend database and adding a login to that database (which may or may not be done during the installation process).
I'm looking for some guidance/help regarding setting up a sa - lite account in SQL 2005. I need to give another admin rights to create/monitor maintenance plans, backup and restore databases, monitor performance/logins, but NOT be able to have any rights on several tables (and of course not being able to set user permissions).
I've tried using server and db roles but haven't been able to determine how to give someone w/o full sa rights access to maintenance plans.
If you can think of soemthing, please let m eknow.
I have MS SQL Server 2000 DB. I have created a User and created some tables for the same. I created a Role named A and granted Select Permissions for few tables to that roles.
When I created another Role named B and added this role (A) to B, the permissions are not being xferred to B. Bcos of which, if i assign an User to Role B, he is not able to select the tables for which permissions have been given thru role A.
Note : If i give assign directly the user to Role A, it is working. But i want to assign User to role A only thru B.
Hi all, First ASP.NET project - please be gentle ! OK. Ready to add personalisation and membership. I have VS2005 Professional, including SQL Server 2005 developer, but I understand that VS2005 defaults to creating a local SQL Express file in the App_Data directory and that suits me just fine for now. Unfortunately I can't get VS to create it for me and the ASP.NET Configuration tool complains it can't connect to the database. First, some REALLY dumb questions to show how little I really know ...
if the application is using a SQL Express file, does the SQL Server 2005 process need to be started in order to access the local database file (or does it just get opened like an access database) does the Broswer process need to be started - this is all just running on my local machine when I finally publish this site on my hosted service I could do with understanding what will need to be done to get THAT database accessed ... maybe cross that bridge later I can go to the VS command prompt and run aspnet_regsql.exe in wizard mode. Going through the steps on that I could give it my SQL Server 2005 server name (after I start it) but that's not what I'm trying to do. I just want it to create and connect to a local file in the App_Data. machine.config shows ... <connectionStrings> <add name="LocalSqlServer" connectionString="data source=.SQLEXPRESS;Integrated Security=SSPI;AttachDBFilename=|DataDirectory|aspnetdb.mdf;User Instance=true" providerName="System.Data.SqlClient" /> <!-- <add name="LocalSql2005" connectionString="Data Source=MICKSPCSSLMJ;Initial Catalog=aspnetdb;Integrated Security=True" providerName="System.Data.SqlClient" /> --> </connectionStrings> The commented connection string I used to temporarily prove that I could access SQL2005. It's no longer used and I've put the other references back to "LocalSqlServer" as below ... <membership> <providers> <add name="AspNetSqlMembershipProvider" type="System.Web.Security.SqlMembershipProvider, System.Web, Version=2.0.0.0, Culture=neutral, PublicKeyToken=b03f5f7f11d50a3a" connectionStringName="LocalSqlServer" enablePasswordRetrieval="false" enablePasswordReset="true" requiresQuestionAndAnswer="true" applicationName="/" requiresUniqueEmail="false" passwordFormat="Hashed" maxInvalidPasswordAttempts="5" minRequiredPasswordLength="7" minRequiredNonalphanumericCharacters="1" passwordAttemptWindow="10" passwordStrengthRegularExpression="" /> </providers> </membership> <profile> <providers> <add name="AspNetSqlProfileProvider" connectionStringName="LocalSqlServer" applicationName="/" type="System.Web.Profile.SqlProfileProvider, System.Web, Version=2.0.0.0, Culture=neutral, PublicKeyToken=b03f5f7f11d50a3a" /> </providers> </profile> <roleManager> <providers> <add name="AspNetSqlRoleProvider" connectionStringName="LocalSqlServer" applicationName="/" type="System.Web.Security.SqlRoleProvider, System.Web, Version=2.0.0.0, Culture=neutral, PublicKeyToken=b03f5f7f11d50a3a" /> <add name="AspNetWindowsTokenRoleProvider" applicationName="/" type="System.Web.Security.WindowsTokenRoleProvider, System.Web, Version=2.0.0.0, Culture=neutral, PublicKeyToken=b03f5f7f11d50a3a" /> </providers> </roleManager>The profile provider is clearly pointing to "LocalSqlServer" which in turn points to : connectionString="data source=.SQLEXPRESS;Integrated Security=SSPI;AttachDBFilename=|DataDirectory|aspnetdb.mdf;User Instance=true" What am I missing please ?
I have a two problems. First is connecting to my sql server 2005 express with my sql account. Every time i try to configure data source to connect to my db on server using my windows auth. it works and when i try using my sql account i get error, User is not associated with a secure SQL Server connection. Second, how can i configure my application to store membership, roles, user data in a database on my server like /Servername/SQLEPRESS/mydbname and not to App_Data/ASPNETDB. Tnx in adv.
I recently moved my .NET project out to production, the server is Windows 2003 running SQL 2005. My developement server was a Windows XP running SQL 2005. Here is my issue. Under development I created a specific user to log in as, created a role and specified exactly what application specific stored procedures etc. that user was allowed access to. Everything worked fine. Backing that database up and restoring it to the new server, when I attempt to log in as the user (and yes I re-created the login, with the user, just as I did on the development server), I get this error... EXECUTE permission denied on object 'aspnet_CheckSchemaVersion', database 'MoldKit', schema 'dbo'. So I attempt to login as SA, and everything works... so I assign the db_owner role to my user and login, everything works... problem being they shouldn't be db_owner. And they're most definitely not assigned this role on development. I even went so far as to delete the database, and recreate it from scratch using the aspnet_regsql.exe and I get the same error. Anyone have any idea why this is happening, or the proper roles I need to assign so the user isn't a dbo, but can still call all the required aspnet procedures. Or could this be some other issue caused by 2003? I've seen this error in a lot of posts, but never once saw a definiative answer to what causes it and and what the fix is.
I have just recovered data from a hard drive crash. I installed a fresh copy of Windows Server 2003 with sp2. Have SQL Standard Running with sp2, and VS 2005 standard running sp1.

Hello, I am using the Membership application for my project. In the database (MS SQL 2005) the program created alot of SPs for the Membership, Roles, Profiles .... Is there a function to return a list of users that are online? There is this function aspnet_Membership_GetNumberOfUsersOnline and aspnet_Membership_GetAllUsers. What i want is a Table with the usernames of all the users that are online in my application. No page index, just a big table with all the online users. I need to get all the usernames for another SP that i just build. Any ideas?
Hello, I have an ASP.NET Membership Database that exists on a remote server. I have been using this database as I developed my ASP.NET 2.0 application locally. When I attempted to promote my ASP.NET 2.0 application to production, I am unable to connect to that same remote database. Oddly, there is another database on that same remote server that I can access from my ASP.NET application in both development and production. Can anyone explain to me what could cause this? Thank you!
I need to create a membership database that includes levels and premiums for each level. Can anyone offer any examples of how this should be done? What tables I would need and how they would be related to each other?
Almost have my custom membershipprovider finsihed, but have ran into a small snag.Scenario:: 2 methods. CreateUser(blah blah) and ValidateUserName(string username). CreateUserWizard control calls CreateUser(blah blah) which in the start of the method calls ValidateUserName(string username). ValidateUserName runs a stored procedure on SQL 2k to check and see if user exists in the db. Returns a bool true or false. If true, then everything works correctly and returns a message displaying that the user exists, please enter a different name.Now the problem. If it returns false, meaning that the username doesnt exist and is available to use, it calls a stored procedure to create the record in the users db. This is where the problem lies. It does NOTHING but sit there waiting. But it never seems to time out. If I comment out the validating. It will add a record successfully.Im wondering if it has something to do with calling 2 stored procedures consecutivly????::CODE TO FOLLOW::
on the login properties i see a third option under security access - Grant access - Deny access - Through group membership

I've started developing an ASP.net 2.0 app with VWD Express.The default membership provider db of SQL Server 5005 Express is not installed on my host servers. So my workaround has been to use a Full blown SQL Server 2005 DB as a custom membership provider declared in web.config. This works fine on the production server. However, when i try to login from my development app I get Exception # 40 can't connect to SQL server membership provider.. Moreover, my app configuration confirms there is problems connecting to this server in my development environment. How can I solve this and bring my development app up & running again? many thanks
I recently transfered my web app to my Windows 2003 server and am having difficulty getting the system to allow me to login.I am using MS SQL Express 2005 and the SQL Express Manager.I have a user/password setup with SQL Authentication. It appears that I am connecting okay, but I am unable to login to the site. I have tried three different accounts with no luck. I know I am using the correct passwords.What permissions do I have to grant my database user to allow me to login to my site?As I am new to SQL Express and the manager, a more specific reply would be very helpful.Thank you,Joshua Foulk
I have a VS 2005 web site on my local development server (IIS running on windows XP). It uses the standard visual web developer express database for the membership provider. When I upload to my production server (Windows Server 2003) the membership db becomes read only. I've checked all the role & user permissions as well as my folder access rules. How can I get the db to behave properly on my production server? Many thanks in advance
I know this may sound like a silly question but, my project currently uses two databases, the aspnet membership db and our application db. What I'm wanting to know is if there is a way to combine them without lossing any current functionality from either one? Also what if any gotchas there might be?
I've set up the membership and authentication tables/stored procedures on an SQL2005 Express database. I'm now trying to get the login on my forms to work. I set up two 'members' through the Web Site Administration Tool and everything seems to work fine as far as logging in is concerned. However, I need to retrieve some information from the membership tables through the codebehind but I've discovered that the data created by the WSAT wasn't stored in my database but in the ASPNETDB.MDF file in my application's Bin folder. How can I ensure that the data created by the WSAT is stored in the correct database? What have I missed?
Hi all, I have a question about generating membership numbers on the fly when someone registers to my website.
Rather than using the auto increment field as a membership number, I would rather keep it as just as the ID for the record and I would like to have a seperate membership number that looks something similar to this...
SR357324J
This will then stay with them for the lifetime of their membership and be on their printed loyalty card.
My questions are... 1) Is there a 'good practice' for membership number format and generation?
2) If this was used as a unique field, is there a degradation in performance when looking up records due to it being alphanumeric.
I may be well off base here, however these are my thoughts so far and your opinion/help is greatly appreciated.
Hello,I'm programming asp.net 2.0 with a mySql database.Now I want to implement membership-features.I consider converting mySql to SQL server 2000 because then I don't have to build a custom membershipprovider.my question is: does membership work as good on sqlserver2000 as it does on sqlserver2005? (my host doesn't support sqlserver2005 (yet).another question: can I expect problems converting the database from mysql to sqlserver2000?
