I'm not doing very well here...
Default.asx displays, user clicks on LoginStatus control, login.aspx displays, user fills in details, user gets returned to default.asps despite presence of DestinationPageUrl="~/MainPage.aspx" in code.
Default.aspx, login.aspx and mainpage.aspx are all in the same folder.
I'm clearly doing something very stupid!
hi,
can u figure out your folder solution explorer strucure ....
In the LoggedIn event of this Login control is User.Identity.IsAuthenticated = True?
No, there's nothing in the code for this event (if I'm looking in the right place:
Partial Class Default2
Inherits System.Web.UI.Page
Protected Sub Login1_LoggedIn(ByVal sender As Object, ByVal e As System.EventArgs) Handles Login1.LoggedIn
End Sub
End Class
And, of course, the app has amazingly now decided to work (but only on the local machine!!!).
According to MSDN, you should have it. You are doing this on the page with the Login control, right?
You'll notice that it's looking at Login1.UserName, another point to look at perhaps.Code:Sub OnLoggedIn(ByVal sender As Object, ByVal e As EventArgs)
SiteSpecificUserLoggingMethod(Login1.UserName)
End Sub
Thanks. I've looked at the MSDN link and added some of the code to my login.aspx which now looks like this:
This hasn't made any difference - things behave as they should here (ie. mainpage.aspx loads) but on the server completing the login successfully returns me to default.aspxCode:<%@ Page Language="VB" AutoEventWireup="false" CodeFile="login.aspx.vb" Inherits="Default2" %>

BTW, I put a breakpoint on the linebut it wasn't executed (even though the login was successful). Why would that be (or have I misunderstood how debugging works in VWD - I'm only used to VB6)?Code:SiteSpecificUserLoggingMethod(Login1.UserName)
Because you haven't specified whether that event should be hit or not.
Code:<asp:Login ID="Login1" runat="server" style="left: 312px; position: relative; top: 190px" DestinationPageUrl="~/MainPage.aspx" OnLoggedIn="OnLoggedIn">
</asp:Login>
But why should I have to? Why isn't it sufficient to set the DestinationPageUrl property? I thought these controls were meant to hide a lot of background code. I can see that the LoggedIn event could be useful for all sorts of things but why does giving DestinationPageUrl a value mean that I have to write extra code for it to work?Quote:

You don't. This is for testing purposes to see if the user does actually log in. A crude way of tracing things.Quote:

In other words the user successfully logs in but the setting of login control's DestinationPageUrl property to "~/MainPage.aspx" isn't working - the user is returned to default.aspx (but only on the remote server - it works fine here).
Alright, get rid of that testing code you had. So you've now confirmed that the user is in fact logged in on the remote server as well, but the DestinationPageUrl is not respected. Under the <authentication> node in your web.config, you will see a <forms> node. Set a defaultUrl property for it to MainPage.aspx
Thanks, done that but I'm still redirected to default.aspx :(
Just to confirm again, here is the code in login.aspx :
And MainPage.aspx is in the same folder on the server as all the pages I have so far created.Code:<asp:Login ID="Login1" runat="server" style="left: 312px; position: relative; top: 190px" DestinationPageUrl="~/MainPage.aspx" OnLoggedIn="OnLoggedIn">
</asp:Login>
Plus I have this (also in login.aspx) :
Code:<script runat="server">
Sub SiteSpecificUserLoggingMethod(ByVal UserName As String)
' Insert code to record the current date and time
' when this user was authenticated at the site.
End Sub
Sub OnLoggedIn(ByVal sender As Object, ByVal e As EventArgs)
SiteSpecificUserLoggingMethod(Login1.UserName)
End Sub
</script>
Like you said earlier, you shouldn't need this extra code. We used that to confirm that the user was indeed logged in, and he is.
So get rid of
OnLoggedIn="OnLoggedIn"
and
Could you do what I mentioned in post 13? In the <forms> node, set the defaultUrl attribute.Code:<script runat="server">
Sub SiteSpecificUserLoggingMethod(ByVal UserName As String)
' Insert code to record the current date and time
' when this user was authenticated at the site.
End Sub
Sub OnLoggedIn(ByVal sender As Object, ByVal e As EventArgs)
SiteSpecificUserLoggingMethod(Login1.UserName)
End Sub
</script>
OK, OnLoggedIn="OnLoggedIn" now deleted and I had already set the DefaultURL property to "MainPage.aspx" - still no joy though...
I'm at a loss here. Wouldn't be possible for you to upload a sample would it? Can you reproduce the issue in a new project?
I am using Access for membership data. MainPage.aspx (the page I am not being redirected to) also loads data from an Access database - if that's relevant. Here's all the code I can see that's relevant (there's nothing in the code behinds).

Tried the following code in default.aspx.vb :
(If you recall, MainPage is not being loaded after a user logs in and user gets returned to default.aspx).Code:Protected Sub Page_LoadComplete(ByVal sender As Object, ByVal e As System.EventArgs) Handles Me.LoadComplete
If User.Identity.IsAuthenticated Then
Response.Redirect("MainPage.aspx")
End If
End Sub
This code does indeed attempt to load MainPage but the load fails, flagging a "System.Data.OleDb.OleDbException" (the page has a gridview that loads data from an Access database).
I don't suppose it's of any use but here is the stack trace :
Any idea why the gridview isn't working (it does on my local machine)? Could this be the reason why MainPage wasn't loading when I first started this thread?Code:[OleDbException (0x8000ffff): No error message available, result code: E_UNEXPECTED(0x8000FFFF).]

It's the gridview that's causing all the trouble! If I remove it MainPage loads once the user has logged in.
Here's the code I was using for it - as I said it works fine here :

Not sure I understand. Had I seen the stacktrace earlier (I just saw it right now), then we'd know that it was indeed database related. How was the gridview causing the problem though?
When I started this thread no exception was caused when the user went back to default.aspx instead of to MainPage.aspx - the app just behaved as if everything was working fine. That's why you couldn't understand what was causing the problem.Quote:

So it wasn't aliens, which was going to be my next suggestion. Thanks for saving me from the embarrassment. :afrog:
Do you have any idea what's going wrong with the gridview? I assume it can't talk to the database for some reason...
Start a new thread about your gridview since you'll be able to get more people answering your brand new gridview question (it being a new thread, new perspective, etc)
