MVC 4.0 simple membership database - asp.net-mvc-4

I am aware of old membership and familiar with aspnet_regsql.exe concept. Now I'm using asp.net MVC4.0 (Visual Studio 2013). How do I get new simple membership table of MVC 4.0 in SQL server management studio.

The tables are created automatically the first time you try to register a user.
so if you want to access those table via SQL server,you need create one database in sql server and replace default connection string in web.config with (new database) connection string.
so now membership table will created in your new database
See this link.

if I understand you correctly, you need to using InitializeSimpleMembershipAttribute
where most interest is the following code
WebSecurity.InitializeDatabaseConnection("EFDBContext", "UsersTable", "UserId", "Login", autoCreateTables: true);
Where:
- EFDBContext (connection string name)
after which all the necessary tables will Create, in particular
webpages_Membership
webpages_Roles
webpages_UsersInRoles

Default schema is not working with select query in asp classic

I'm having problems with default schema and sql in asp classic. First, I have a database 'MyDatabase', this database has the schema 'MySchema' (all tables are into this schema), also there is a user 'jdoe' with privileges over 'MyDatabase' and with a default schema 'MySchema', 'jdoe' is not sysadmin.
'jdoe' can execute from management studio the following query without errors:
SELECT columnOne FROM MyTable
The same query but from an .asp page can not find MyTable:
Dim query
query = "SELECT ColumnOne FROM MyTable"
Asp pages are using ADODB.Command and user 'jdoe'. The query returns results if I specify explictly the schema:
Dim query
query = "SELECT ColumnOne FROM MySchema.MyTable"
I searched the web but all answer say the same: Asign a default schema to 'jdoe',but i did it and works with t-sql in the server or dabatase like stored procedures but not work with querys like I have in asp pages.
Does exist some special configuration?
thanks.
Solved:
I don't know what happened, i change sql server user 'jdoe' by windows user(domain\user) and it works, i configured windows user the same way, assigning a default schema and with no sysadmin privileges.
From asp pages i used a DSN with windows authentication and from IIS i configured website security directory to allow anonymous access and i used the same user i used in sql server.

can not retrieve data from sql server

I can not retrieve data from db in sql server.
I use the c3p0 as the pool,this is the c3p0.properties:
c3p0.user=test
c3p0.password=123456
c3p0.jdbcUrl=jdbc:sqlserver://xxxxxx:1433;databaseName=TIMDB;SelectMethod=cursor
c3p0.driverClass=com.microsoft.sqlserver.jdbc.SQLServerDriver
c3p0.maxPoolSize=15
c3p0.testConnectionOnCheckin=true
c3p0.idleConnectionTestPeriod=3600
In the sql server,I have create a new user named test,and its default db is TIMDB,the server roles is public,and this is the user mapping:
But when I start the application,I can get nothing.
From the log created by log4j,I can get the sql used to retrieve data,but if I copy the sql to the sql management stutio and create a new query,I can retrieve some data.
I wonder why?
It looks like a permissions problem to me. If the generated SQl runs when you use it in management studio (i.e under your user account) then you know the code is good. What access have you given the user "test" from your post I see "user mapping: enter image description here"? he will need at least db_datareader and possibly more depending on what code is generated.
You could also try logging on to SQL Management studio under your "test" user and see if you can execute the code. That will eliminate the possibility that its something wrong with your application/network.

Adding tables to sql server result in Domain\user.name.tablename

Our app uses migratordotnet to modify the backing SQL Server 2005 database. This works great 99% of the time but we are running into an issue. We have a client that is using and Active Directory group for sql server login and when new tables are added it creates them as Domain\login.table_name. What permissions are needed to be given to the AD group to add the tables as dbo.table_name? This does not happen in with all of our clients with similar configurations so I must be missing something.
Make sure that the default schema for that login / group is set to dbo.
Can you set the default schema for a group? I was unable to do that using the management studio. I am trying a solution now that specifies the schema "dbo.table_name"

Multiple Versions of SQL Server using Entity Framework in a single ASP.NET application

I am using the Entity Framework in a web application that utilizes SQL server 2000, 2005, and 2008. When I create a new EDMX file using anything other than 2008 (version of the first edmx created) I receive error 0172: All SSDL artifacts must target the same provider. The Provider 'MyDatabase' is different from ' MyDatabase ' that was encountered earlier. It seems that somewhere in the code the connection is wired to a 2008 datastore and when it checks the SSDL file and sees a different ProviderManifestToken value it throws this error. I am a little more than frustrated. It is hard to imagine that EF will only work with a single version of Sql Server per application. I am fairly sure there must be a setting or workaround. Does anyone have a solution to use different versions of SQL server and the Entity Framework within a single web application?
I was able to accomplish this by putting each edmx in a separate assembly. Then in the connection string, replace all the res://*/... with res://NameOfAssembly/...
I can even perform joins between the two entity models (contrary to claims I found in other sources), e.g.:
var oneDb = new Entities2000();
var otherDb = new Entities2005();
var results = from one in oneDb.SomeSet
join other in otherDb.OtherSet
on one.Property equals other.Property
select new {
SomeProp = one.SomeProp,
OtherProp = other.OtherProp
};
This link helped me to solve the problem when there was a difference in SQL server 2005 and 2008.

Right click on the .edmx file and select Open with XML Editor.
Open Entity Framework .edmx file:
Change the ProviderManifestToken to 2008:
Looks like its a known issue for Microsoft.

how to access sql server from asp page

We have a legacy, homegrown timesheet system (ASP, microsoft sql server 2005) that I need to clone to another computer for backup purposes. (I know very little about this stuff, so pleas be gentle)
I've got most of the pieces in place (IIS, Sql Server, table import / creation). But, the ASP page to access the timesheet pages is choking on access to the sql server.
here is the line it's crashing on: conn.open Session("sConnStr")
This is the connection string;
sConnStr = "Server=MYSERVER-D01;DATABASE=MYDATABASE;UID=MyDatabaseUser;PWD=MyDatabaseUser;QuotedID=No;DRIVER={SQL Server};Provider=MSDASQL"
This is the error:
Error Type: Microsoft OLE DB Provider for ODBC Drivers (0x80004005) [Microsoft][ODBC Driver Manager] Data source name not found and no default driver specified /mydir/mypage.asp, line 17 <== shown above
Note that am able to access the db on SQL Server with Windows specified as the authentication using Server Management Studio. However, when i try using SQL Authentication, I get the message "The user is not associated with a trusted SQL connection".
Questions:
How do you set up the user / password on SQL Server 2005?
What is the default driver, and do i need to get it/set it up?
When it talks about the data source name ( see "MYDATABASE" in the
above mentioned connection string), is it talking about one of the
entries you see under "Databases" on the management studio object
explorer?
Thanks for you responses! So far, no luck. I've managed to access the database via management studio object explorer, by doing this;
Enable SQL Authentication:
....Solution
To resolve this issue, follow the instructions to set User Authentication.
SQL Server 2000:
Go to Start > Programs > Microsoft SQL Server > Enterprise Manager
Right-click the Server name, select Properties > Security
Under Authentication, select SQL Server and Windows
The server must be stopped and re-started before this will take effect
SQL Server 2005:
Go to Start > Programs > Microsoft SQL Server 2005 > SQL Server Management Studio
Right-click the Server name, select Properties > Security
Under Server Authentication, select SQL Server and Windows Authentication Mode
The server must be stopped and re-started before this will take effect..."
And
this;
Change the owner to the one being used to access the db
Microsoft SQL Server Management Studio
Right click the DB, change the owner
But I'm still getting exactly the same error message!
To create a new user and assign it to a database you'll need to do the following,
In SQL Server Management Studio, open Object Explorer and expand the
folder of the server instance in which
to create the new login.
Right-click the Security folder, point to New, and then click Login.
On the General page, enter a name for the new login in the Login name
box.
Select SQL Server Authentication. Windows Authentication is the more
secure option.
Enter a password for the login.
Select the password policy options that should be applied to the new
login. In general, enforcing password
policy is the more secure option.
Click OK.
You will then want to assign that login to a database by creating a new database user,
In SQL Server Management Studio, open Object Explorer and expand the
Databases folder.
Expand the database in which to create the new database user.
Right-click the Security folder, point to New, and then click User.
On the General page, enter a name for the new user in the User name box.
In the Login name box, enter the name of a SQL Server login to map to
the database user.
Click OK.
You'll want to make that user the db_owner. Run the following against your database.
sp_addrolemember #rolename = 'db_owner', #membername = 'usernamehere'
Then use the following connection string format to connect to the database.
Data Source=ServerAddress;Initial Catalog=DatabaseName;User Id=UserName;Password=UserPassword;
If you have a trusted connection from the login that IIS is using the the machine that has SQL Server running on it I would avoid using Username / Password and declare that the connection is trusted in your connection string:
sConnStr = "Server=MYSERVER-D01;DATABASE=MYDATABASE;UID=MyDatabaseUser;PWD=MyDatabaseUser;QuotedID=No;DRIVER={SQL Server};Provider=MSDASQL;Integrated Security=SSPI"
This is to illustrate the change, but in practice you may need to vary the connections string a bit more than that, have a look at http://www.connectionstrings.com/sql-server-2005 for examples.
When it talks about the data source name ( see "MYDATABASE" in the above mentioned connection string), is it talking about one of the entries you see under "Databases" on the management studio object explorer
Yes, your entry for "MYDATABASE" should be the exact name of the database that you see under "Databases". Make sure that you have the "Server" correct too.
Microsoft OLE DB Provider for ODBC Drivers error '80004005'
[Microsoft][ODBC Driver Manager]Data source name not found and no default driver specified.
This usually happens in one of the following scenarios:
* you referenced your connection incorrectly (e.g. spelled the DSN name, or one of the DSN-less string components wrong);
* you referenced a DSN that doesn't exist;
* the user connecting to the DSN or DSN-less connection doesn't have access to the information stored in the registry (see KB #306345);
* you used an English or localized driver detail for your connection string when your system is not set up in that language (see KB #174655); or,
* you are missing the connection string entirely (this can happen if you maintain your connection string in a session variable, and your sessions aren't working; see Article #2157).
Here is the link to the above article (note it is extremely detailed).

To answer the last question, MYDATABASE is calling a database by name. If you use 'MYDATABASE' in your string, you will need a database named 'MYDATABASE' in SQL Server.
This connection string should work fine with ASP if this is a SQL server. Replace your values before using obviously.
sConnStr = "provider=SQLOLEDB;Data Source=YourServerName;Initial Catalog=YourDBName;UID=YourUserName;PWD=YourUserPWD;"
The easiest way I have found to deal with these issue is to create a udl file. On your desktop create a new text file and rename it filename.udl. Double click the udl file. Click the Provider Tab > select Microsoft OLE DB Provider for SQL Server > Next. Using the connection tab you should be able to connect to your database. Once test connection succeeds click ok. You can now open the file in a text editor and copy and paste the line that start Provider... to your asp file. You should end up with sConnStr = "Provider..textfromUDLfile"
MSDN - Creating and Configuring Universal Data Link (.udl) Files
I suggest that you create a DAL (Data Access Layer) that can do all the connection stuff for you. Just passit your command an dit can open and close your conenctions and such. In any app you wan tto abstract these different layers as much as posible and that means that your aspx page should call to an object when has the methods that hten get handled by the dal and make the database calls.
Here is the format for connection to the DB. You can put the connecitn string in the web.config file or even do it in code using hte connectionstringbuilder.
you also need to make sure that your project includes the system.data.sqlclient library otherwise this won't work.
The entry in the web config file looks something like this.
<add name="ConString" connectionString="Data Source=localhost;Integrated Security=True;Initial Catalog="DBtouse";Persist Security Info=True;" providerName="System.Data.SqlClient"/>
or
<add key="ConString" value="Server=localhost;user=username;password=password;Initial Catalog=MyDBtouse;pooling=false"/>
the code behind loks like this:
Dim MyConnection As Data.SqlClient.SqlConnection
Dim Constring As New SqlClient.SqlConnectionStringBuilder
Constring.ConnectionString = System.Configuration.ConfigurationSettings.AppSettings("ConString")
Constring.ConnectTimeout = 30
MyConnection.ConnectionString = Constring.ConnectionString
MyConnection.Open()
'Execute code here
MyConnection.Close()
MyConnection = Nothing
