This question is about creating a single instance of the Raven document store in the lifetime of a ASP.Net MVC application and subsequently using a new IDocumentSession per request to serve the client with. I believe to have followed the recommended procedure described at http://ravendb.net/kb/3/using-ravendb-in-an-asp-net-mvc-website I'm still experiencing errors once the site is deployed.
My code looks as follows. The HepApp class contains the document store and is referenced by the application:
internal class HepApp
{
internal static readonly Object padlock = new object();
private static IDocumentStore _DB;
internal IDocumentStore DB
{
get
{
if (_DB == null)
{
lock (padlock)
{
if (_DB == null)
{
_DB = new EmbeddableDocumentStore().Initialize();
return _DB;
}
}
}
return _DB;
}
}
public IDocumentSession GetSession()
{
return DB.OpenSession();
}
}
My MVC Controller:
public class HomeController : Controller
{
IDocumentSession RavenSession;
public HomeController()
{
}
protected void Init()
{
RavenSession = MvcApplication.HepApp.GetSession();
}
protected override void OnActionExecuting(ActionExecutingContext filterContext)
{
base.OnActionExecuting(filterContext);
Init();
}
The application class Global.asax binds to:
public class MvcApplication : System.Web.HttpApplication
{
static readonly Object padlock = new object();
static HepApp _HepApp;
internal static HepApp HepApp
{
get
{
if(_HepApp == null)
{
lock(padlock)
{
if(_HepApp == null)
{
_HepApp = new HepApp();
}
}
}
return _HepApp;
}
}
When the application starts the document store should be initialized and live for the remainder of the application's lifetime. For each request a new Session object is created. At least, that's the idea. Instead null reference errors occur in OnActionExecuting (though I suspect the HomeController.Init method but it doesn't appear on the stack) or the EmbeddableDocumentStore object is reported als already disposed. Confusingly, these errors only crop up after the application has been running for a while which might suggest it's an app pool recycle issue
EDIT:
The errors differ but all seem to indicate a problem with the instantiation of the database store :

Whenever the bin folder is updated with a tweaked version to debug the problem the site will initially run ok, presumably because the application is reset.

I've upgraded solution from 2.2 to 3.1. It consists of several projects (APIs). They all use Kestrel and HTTPS.
After the upgrade I cannot call one service from another (by using HttpClient) and I cannot reroute them by using Ocelot, when i run things locally on localhost. In both cases I'm getting the same error:
Failed to authenticate HTTPS connection.
System.IO.IOException: Authentication failed because the remote party has closed the transport stream.

When I call each API from postman, it is working.
Furthermore when I set verything to HTTP I'm getting the same error.
Sample code(returns 403 Forbidden):
HttpClient client = new HttpClient();
HttpResponseMessage response = await client.GetAsync("https://localhost:5004/version");
if (response.IsSuccessStatusCode)
{
serviceVersion = await response.Content.ReadAsStringAsync();
}
I was wanting to create unit tests around my .NET library that hosts Edge.js to make node.js function calls.
It fails with an System.AccessViolationException error and I went on to reproduce the issue by trying to use Edge in a unit test.
Will I be able to do this, or am I not understanding the current limitations?
To reproduce, a simple unit test
using System.Threading.Tasks;
using EdgeJs;
using Microsoft.VisualStudio.TestTools.UnitTesting;
namespace UnitTest {
[TestClass]
public class UnitTest1 {
[TestMethod]
public void TestMethod1() {
Start().Wait();
}
public static async Task<object> Start() {
var func = Edge.Func(#"
return function (data, cb) {
cb(null, 'Node.js ' + process.version + ' welcomes ' + data);
}
");
return await func("MSTEST");
}
}
}
and MSTEST hangs and the reported message to the output shows
System.AccessViolationException: Attempted to read or write protected memory. This is often an indication that other memory is corrupt.

I'm coding a Windows 8.1 app that use Hub control.
this project also use mvvmLight.
DataContext Class like this
public class UserInfoViewModel : ViewModelBase
{
private UserInfo userInfo;
public UserInfo User
{
get { return userInfo; }
set
{
if (value == userInfo)
return;
userInfo = value;
RaisePropertyChanged("User");
}
}
public UserInfoViewModel()
{
User = new UserInfo()
{
NikeName = "User",
ProfileImage = "ms-appx:///image/test.jpg"
};
}
}
When I use HubSection.ContentTemplate like this,
it's seems something wrong with the binding
<HubSection.ContentTemplate>
<DataTemplate>
<ContentControl>
<StackPanel
DataContext="{Binding User, Source={StaticResource Locator}}">
</StackPanel>
</ContentControl>
</DataTemplate>
</HubSection.ContentTemplate>

I have an MVC4 application whereby I have assigned roles to my user using a custom role provider so that when I check User.IsInRole against my User table it determines which links etc to display on screen in my _Layout.cshtml page. This is working on the Layout page in that the correct links are appearing.
However when I secure my Admin controller using the
[Authorize(Roles = "Admin")]
I am getting the following stack trace from an object not set to instance of an object error:

What exactly is in this Filter context? This works without any further configuration when I use ADFS or Forms based authentication but when using Windows based authentication I have had to do the following to get IsInRole method working:
this.UserName = System.Security.Principal.WindowsIdentity.GetCurrent().Name;
if (this.UserName.Contains("\\"))
{
string[] stringArray = this.UserName.Split(new Char[] { '\\' });
this.UserName = stringArray[1];
MyUser identity = userRepository.Get(u => u.Username == this.UserName).FirstOrDefault();
HttpContext.Current.User = identity;
}
Do I need to configure some other HttpContext proper in order for Authorize attribute to work in same manner as IsInRole method?
In the forms case, it could be anything but it is very common to implement a username password form with a lookup by username in a user table, based on the code presented it looks like the repository expects just a username, it just turns out that windows.identity.name returns domain\user. That's where the extra effort comes in to split into domain, user. example below:
using System;
using System.Collections.Generic;
using System.Linq;
using System.Web;
using System.Web.Mvc;
namespace MvcApplication6
{
public class DemoAuthAttribute : AuthorizeAttribute
{
// create a file like auth.cs in the mvc project
// called
// [DemoAuth("BAR")]
// as an attibute on a controller method
private string _role;
public DemoAuthAttribute(string role)
{
_role = role; // should be exapanded to handle more than one
}
protected override bool AuthorizeCore(HttpContextBase httpContext)
{
return httpContext.Request.IsAuthenticated && _role == "FOO";
// lookup the current user in database does the user have role as specificed by the attribute?
// if yes sucess if not fail.
}
public override void OnAuthorization(AuthorizationContext filterContext)
{
if (filterContext == null)
{
throw new ArgumentNullException("filterContext");
}
if (AuthorizeCore(filterContext.HttpContext))
{
// your custom logic here
string text = string.Format("<u><h5>Auth successfull.....</h5></u></br>");
filterContext.HttpContext.Response.Write(text);
}
else
{
// RedirectResult, etc.
string text = string.Format("<u><h5>Auth unsuccessfull.....</h5></u></br>");
filterContext.HttpContext.Response.Write(text);
}
}
}
}
I get this error message when trying to initialize my database connection using SimpleMembership. The first initialize statement goes through, while the second does not. The goal is to use connection strings defined in the Azure service configuration when running Azure emulator or when deployed.

string connectionString = CloudConfigurationManager.GetSetting("SqlConnectionString");

It seems to me you might be suffering from the lack of double-escaping (do \\v11.0 instead of \v11.0), as discussed in this post.
I'm ashamed to realize I had a typo in my connection strings. I was getting connection strings from Azure Deployment configuration files, such as:
<Setting name="SqlConnectionString" value="Server=Data Source=(LocalDb)\v11.0;Initial Catalog=aspnet-********;Integrated Security=SSPI;AttachDBFilename=|DataDirectory|\aspnet-********.mdf" />
The typo was included here, at the start of the value string. It must've been a copy'n'paste bug.
This string was duplicated in Azure configuration files Local.cscfg and Cloud.cscfg, for Azure emulator and Azure deployment respectively, as well as in web.config for running locally outside emulator. The typo was only in the Local.cscfg file, which made me very confused when trying to figure out why it did not work in certain scenarios. In addition the typo was for some reason very hard for me to spot. In hindsight I don't see how I didn't figure this out sooner.
I don't have a solution yet, but here is my own investigation and theory so far:
I took a look at the source code of WebSecurity.InitializeDatabaseConnection() and think maybe I have found a bug. It doesn't seem to ever set the DatabaseConnectionInfo.Type property, which defaults to ConnectionStringName, which could explain why it doesn't like my connection string, since it would interpret it as a connection string name instead.
WebSecurity class:
public static void InitializeDatabaseConnection(string connectionString, string providerName, string userTableName, string userIdColumn, string userNameColumn, bool autoCreateTables)
{
WebSecurity.InitializeProviders(new DatabaseConnectionInfo()
{
ConnectionString = connectionString,
ProviderName = providerName
}, userTableName, userIdColumn, userNameColumn, autoCreateTables);
}
DatabaseConnectionInfo class:
public Database Connect()
{
switch (this.Type)
{
case DatabaseConnectionInfo.ConnectionType.ConnectionStringName:
return Database.Open(this.ConnectionStringName);
case DatabaseConnectionInfo.ConnectionType.ConnectionString:
return Database.OpenConnectionString(this.ConnectionString, this.ProviderName);
default:
return (Database) null;
}
}
private enum ConnectionType
{
ConnectionStringName,
ConnectionString,
}
