identity

I am using ASP.NET MVC5 and Identity 2.0 (beta). It is possible for users to change the username? I am trying using UserManager.UpdateAsync method throws an exception. Regrads, Fran. Yes it is possible using the UpdateAsync method but you need to ensure that you update both the email and username fields. var user = userManager.FindById(userId); user.Email = email; user.UserName = email; var updateResult = await userManager.UpdateAsync(user); This method works successfully for me This works for me: public async Task<ActionResult> ChangeUsername(string value) { if (UserManager.Users.Where(x => x

I have been trying to prevent the redirect when I return an NotAuthorized IActionResult from a Controller, but regardless of my attempts, NotAuthorized gets translated to a Redirect. I have tried what is mentioned here (same issue, using older beta framework, I use 1.0.0-rc1-final). I do not have the Notifications namespace (has been removed in rc1-final). This is my Login Controller: [HttpPost] [AllowAnonymous] public async Task<IActionResult> Login(LoginViewModel model, string returnUrl = null) { if (ModelState.IsValid) { var result = await _signInManager.PasswordSignInAsync(model.Email,

What happen when SQL Server 2005 happen to reach the maximum for an IDENTITY column? Does it start from the beginning and start refilling the gap? What is the behavior of SQL Server 2005 when it happen? You will get an overflow error when the maximum value is reached . If you use the bigint datatype with a maximum value of 9,223,372,036,854,775,807 this will most likely never be the case. The error message you will get, will look like this: Msg 220, Level 16, State 2, Line 10 Arithmetic overflow error for data type tinyint, value = 256. (Source) As far as I know MS SQL provides no

I am interested in what is the most performant way for StoreGeneratedPattern. In past I was used to let the DB generate the ID for me but I was wondering if there is any advantage in setting StoreGeneratedPattern = None instead of StoreGeneratedPattern = Identity I am not even sure what happens when I set it to Calculated. Any recommendations? Is there any nice article related to this because msdn is not very explanatory. I am using mostly ints with few GUIDs in my schema. Ladislav Mrnka Check my blog post about StoreGeneratedPattern . It explains some differences between Identity and Computed

With the new version of VS 2013 RTM and asp.net mvc 5.0, I’ve decided to try out a few things... Needless to say, a lot has changed. For example, the new ASP.NET Identity is a replacement of the old Membership and (less old) SimpleMembership APIs. In all previous applications I’ve built, I never had the chance to work with Membership or with SimpleMembership. I’ve always ended up creating my own Login() method which would convert a submitted ViewModel to a POCO (using automapper) which in turn, would use some sort of repository to lookup the user and password. In return, I would obtain a User

I get the following error when I try to register a new user, using Identity 2.0 and the default MVC 5 application: Invalid column name 'Email'. Invalid column name 'EmailConfirmed'. Invalid column name 'PhoneNumber'. Invalid column name 'PhoneNumberConfirmed'. Invalid column name 'TwoFactorEnabled'. Invalid column name 'LockoutEndDateUtc'. Invalid column name 'LockoutEnabled'. Invalid column name 'AccessFailedCount'. (repeats 2 more times, I have a total of 4 test users in AspNetUsers table.) I have a small application I've just upgraded from MVC4/Identity 1.0 to MVC5/Identity 2.0, so I had
