Membership stuff acts wierd on production server

[Bobby Edward]

My site is utilizing asp.net membership. It works perfect on the
development machine.

I copied the entire directory to the production server. Now it seems that
the membership stuff is acting wierd.

I can login ok. But it doesn't run the login redirect properly.

Also, I wrote a simple test page that consists of this...
Protected Sub Page_Load(ByVal sender As Object, ByVal e As
System.EventArg s) Handles Me.Load
response.write( "DEBUG:")
For Each role As String In Roles.GetAllRol es
Response.Write( role & ";")
Next

If User.IsInRole(" Administrator") Then
Response.Write( "admin/manageusers.asp x")
ElseIf User.IsInRole(" Engineer") Then
Response.Write( "engineer/manageprojects. aspx")
ElseIf User.IsInRole(" Non-Engineer") Then
Response.Write( "membersonl y/mycivcast.aspx" )
Else
Response.Write( "default.as px")
End If
End Sub

On my local dev machine it spits out all the roles (from the For statement.)
In the production server it doesn't spit out ANY roles, even though the
web.config's both point to the production server mysql db.

Any ideas? Thanks.

I have been recently developing with the membership provider and found
this snippet of code very useful in determining if I was correctly
authenticated as a user. This might give you some insight as to
whether or not you are actuall authenticating correctly. I added it
to my default page and got the login page to redirect me.

FormsIdentity id = (FormsIdentity) User.Identity;
FormsAuthentica tionTicket ticket = id.Ticket;

Response.Write( "<p/>TicketName: " + ticket.Name);
Response.Write( "<br/>Cookie Path: " + ticket.CookiePa th);
Response.Write( "<br/>Ticket Expiration: " +
ticket.Expirati on.ToString());
Response.Write( "<br/>Expired: " + ticket.Expired. ToString());
Response.Write( "<br/>Persistent: " +
ticket.IsPersis tent.ToString() );
Response.Write( "<br/>IssueDate: " +
ticket.IssueDat e.ToString());
Response.Write( "<br/>UserData: " + ticket.UserData );
Response.Write( "<br/>Version: " + ticket.Version. ToString());

Hope this is of some use.

Thanks Jason.

I'm thinking this has to do with the fact that I am using custom
membership/role providers (because I am using CoreLabs MyDirect.NET to
access the MySQL database.)

In my web.config I have it setup as this...

<membership defaultProvider ="AspNetMySqlMe mbershipProvide r"
userIsOnlineTim eWindow="15">
<providers>
<remove name="AspNetMyS qlMembershipPro vider" />
<add name="AspNetMyS qlMembershipPro vider"
type="CoreLab.M ySql.Web.Provid ers.MySqlMember shipProvider"
connectionStrin gName="MySqlSer vices" enablePasswordR etrieval="false "
enablePasswordR eset="true" requiresQuestio nAndAnswer="tru e"
requiresUniqueE mail="true" passwordFormat= "Hashed"
maxInvalidPassw ordAttempts="5" passwordAttempt Window="10"
description="My Direct membership provider" applicationName ="/AmtekCivCast "
minRequiredPass wordLength="5" minRequiredNona lphanumericChar acters="0" />
<add name="PasswordR esetProvider"
type="CoreLab.M ySql.Web.Provid ers.MySqlMember shipProvider"
connectionStrin gName="MySqlSer vices" enablePasswordR etrieval="false "
enablePasswordR eset="true" requiresQuestio nAndAnswer="fal se"
requiresUniqueE mail="true" passwordFormat= "Hashed"
maxInvalidPassw ordAttempts="5" passwordAttempt Window="10"
description="My Direct membership provider" applicationName ="/AmtekCivCast "
minRequiredPass wordLength="5" minRequiredNona lphanumericChar acters="0" />
</providers>
</membership>
<roleManager defaultProvider ="AspNetMySqlRo leProvider" enabled="true"
cacheRolesInCoo kie="true" cookieName=".AS PROLES" cookieTimeout=" 90"
cookiePath="/" cookieProtectio n="All">
<providers>
<remove name="AspNetMyS qlRoleProvider" />
<add name="AspNetMyS qlRoleProvider"
type="CoreLab.M ySql.Web.Provid ers.MySqlRolePr ovider"
connectionStrin gName="MySqlSer vices" />
</providers>
</roleManager>
<!--<anonymousIdent ification enabled="true"/>-->
<profile defaultProvider ="AspNetMySqlPr ofileProvider">
<providers>
<remove name="AspNetMyS qlProfileProvid er" />
<add name="AspNetMyS qlProfileProvid er"
type="CoreLab.M ySql.Web.Provid ers.MySqlProfil eProvider"
connectionStrin gName="MySqlSer vices" />
</providers>
<properties>
<!-- <add name="ZipCode" /-->
</properties>
</profile>

I'm thinking that I have to add these entries to the
<system.data>/<DbProviderFact oriessection, but I don't really know how
yet.

Sound right?

Thanks!
