NOT LOGGING IN WITH CORRECT PASSWORD

Dear Sir,

environment : Windows XP / VS2008 / Vb

I am trying to make a sample application. I am using loging contorl on a form and using membership authentication . Everything was working fine and I was able to login with the correct credentials. I don't know why and who it is happening now that I am not able to login with correct password. I have recreated the user and password but the result is same.

Here I am pasting my web.confg

    Protected Sub Page_Load(ByVal sender As Object, ByVal e As System.EventArgs) Handles Me.Load
        Dim connectionString As String = "Server=LAPTOP\SQLEXPRESS; Database=accounts; Integrated Security=true;"
        Dim sqlConnection As New SqlConnection(connectionString)
        sqlConnection.Open()

        ' Here is our query.
        Dim thisCommand As New SqlCommand("SELECT fy FROM fymaster where active=1", sqlConnection)
        Dim thisReader As SqlDataReader = thisCommand.ExecuteReader()
        While thisReader.Read
            Dim fy = thisReader.GetValue(0)
            Session("fyvar") = fy
        End While
       

    End Sub

    Protected Sub Login1_Authenticate(ByVal sender As Object, ByVal e As System.Web.UI.WebControls.AuthenticateEventArgs) Handles Login1.Authenticate


    End Sub

   End Class

Pl. guide where the problem rises.

Thanks

Re: NOT LOGGING IN WITH CORRECT PASSWORD

Hi Neeraj Bhushan,

According to your description above, you are using membership authentication. However, it seems like that there isn't the corresponding configuration in the web.config. Please add it as follows:

<membership>
<providers>
<add name="AspNetSqlMembershipProvider" connectionStringName="accountsConnectionString" enablePasswordRetrieval="false" enablePasswordReset="true" requiresQuestionAndAnswer="false" applicationName="/" requiresUniqueEmail="true" passwordFormat="Hashed" maxInvalidPasswordAttempts="5" minRequiredPasswordLength="5" minRequiredNonalphanumericCharacters="0" passwordAttemptWindow="10" passwordStrengthRegularExpression="" type="System.Web.Security.SqlMembershipProvider, System.Web, Version=2.0.0.0, Culture=neutral, PublicKeyToken=b03f5f7f11d50a3a"/>
</providers>
</membership>

In addition, you can follow the blog below which describe how to build a website using membership and login control. http://www.codeproject.com/Articles/34444/Building-a-Web-Site-with-Membership-and-User-Login

Best wishes,
