Greetings to all colleagues,
I have the task to create asp.net website membership (with three roles),
one of the requirements of which, is:
"Please note this will not be done on my server but will be a stand alone class with all asp.net's usual membership actions".
For some (solid) reasons I missed the initial discussion and negotiations on the requirements,
the time has passed and this phrase is now haunting me on the edge of deadline to deliver the project and explanations of what and why had not been done: - what definitelycannot be done at all and
- what will require such and such efforts, time and budget.
I am not absolutely sure about "what", "why", "definitely" and "additionally"...
So, what can I do in order to balance between completing the all possible to satisfy this requirement and to avoid being a liar in stating what is absolutely impossible.
I have made my studies and conclusions but in urgent need of third opinion.
ASP.NET 2.0+, MS SQL Server 2005 (Edition is unknown)
asp.net membership and roles are built in application services. Are you asking how to set them up?
Hi, rtpHarry,
I had implemented/configured asp.net membership before.
I can only repost the customer's requirement: "Please note this will not be done on my server but will be a stand alone class with all asp.net's usual membership actions"
Some of my subjective possible interpretations can be:
- the desire to have setup/installer,
though I do not know even the edition of MSSQLServer (I asked thrice and answer was "MS SQL Server 2005").
- the desire to have drag&drop miraculous dll...
I am just trying to understand what I can maximally do to satisfy this spec and what to answer in most polite way without any hints.
You know, explanation of banalities is synonym of rudeness for me and I cannot understand even how to respond to it.
It could be a membership provider class which hooks into an existing database?
The database does not exist since I already asked:
"Does your website already employ a database (data storage)?
If yes, then there are chances that you want to have membership to be merged into in the same db in order to link it with other tables(?), for ex., ...
and the answer was:
"-I do not have current tables to link to - this is a fresh start."
This is bid I have won on free-lance site.
The initial task was:
"****************************
Title: Simple Asp.net Membership
----------------
Asp.net Membership provider/system.
I don't need a website built, I just need the Membership system(provider) built.
-Sql tables
-Login page
-Create User (signup) -> 3 different roles
-Logged in page
-Not logged in page
*******************************
"
The problem is that already after I put my proposal the specs (in private postings) were changed,
my proposal accepted while I had no access to internet over a week.
So, I am to deal with what happened post-factum or
have negative rate for dumping this project.
One of the other specs creeps:
to augment UserId type in tables by ROWGUIDCOL

Reading that spec it sounds like you just have to setup a normal membership provider for them.

The user id is already a guid, its called the ProviderUserKey:
Sounds confusing to me as well...not really sure what to interpret from that statement.
But what you have is to create all pages and default aspnetDB and also SqlScript to create aspnetdb.
Provide information to client on how-to attach the aspnetDB you provided to the SqlServer. Also information to modify connection in the web.config for this DB.
Apart from that ...."stand alone class" with "login createUser Pages" ..don't make sense to me.
For RowGUIDCOL...never used it...but seems to be a property you can set for a column.

This is very confusing isn't it!
Have you clarified what the client means by "this wont be done on my server", could they be referring to a webservice, or single sign on?

Apart from that not much idea on that ROWGUIDCOL Property.
