membership-provider

We have a database of ASP.net sqlMembershipProvider based users on an Azure SQL database. It has become apparent that the out of the box sqlMembershipProvider 4.0 does not have the required retry logic for Azure SQL connections which can drop out due to throttling or can expire. It is possible to implement our own membership provider that has this functionality but it would have to be exactly the same database interactions as the standard sqlMembershipProvider 4.0 in order to work with the existing users in our database. However for that it would require looking into the source of the original

Essentially I want to show a friendly message when someone is not part of a role listed in my attribute. Currently my application just spits the user back to the log in screen. I've read a few posts that talk about creating a custom attribute that just extends [AuthorizeAttribute], but I'm thinking there's got to be something out of the box to do this? can someone please point me in the right direction of where I need to look to not have it send the user to the log in form, but rather just shoot them a "not authorized" message? If simplicity or total control of the logic is what you want you

How can I integrate EF 5.0 with membership provider using code first?

The model

I created my own database schema to store user information. CREATE TABLE [dbo].[MyCustomMembership_Users]( [UserId] [uniqueidentifier] NOT NULL, [UserName] [nvarchar](256) NOT NULL, [LoweredUserName] [nvarchar](256) NOT NULL, [MobileAlias] [nvarchar](16) NULL, [IsAnonymous] [bit] NOT NULL, [LastActivityDate] [datetime] NOT NULL, [FirstName] [nvarchar](256) NULL, [MiddleName] [nvarchar](256) NULL, [LastName] [nvarchar](256) NULL) Then I extend the MembershipProvider and MembershipUser and create the overriden methods. How can I pass the additional information when I call the CreateUser Method?

Good morning all, I am attempting to implement my custom membership and role providers in my web application that I have implemented under the Default Web Site in my instance of IIS 7. My web application is running under a .NET 4 application pool.

I have included the following block of code in the system.web section of the corresponding web application's web.config: <membership defaultProvider="CustomMembershipProvider" userIsOnlineTimeWindow="20">
