    Unable to login user in frontend

    Hello,

     

    Im having a weird problem in an old website running on Umbraco umbraco v 4.0.4.1. Logging in users does not seem to work anymore. I use the following code to log in a user:

            string hashedPassword = AmatecWebsite.Extensions.Clients.ClientRepository.verifyHash(txtEmail.Text, txtPassword.Text);
            Member m = Member.GetMemberFromLoginNameAndPassword(txtEmail.Text, hashedPassword);

            if (m != null && txtEmail.Text != string.Empty && txtPassword.Text != string.Empty && hashedPassword != string.Empty)
            {
               
                //HttpContext.Current.Response.Write("ja" + ContinueUrl);
                Member.AddMemberToCache(m);
              
                //Add the shopping cart if the client has one
                string sSessionID = OrderManagement.SpecialSessionID();
                SessionHandler.CurrentClientID = m.Id;

            }

    Funny thing is is that logging in as actully succesful but it doesnt seem to be able to remember. So GetMemberFromLoginNameAndPassword actually returns a Member object but IsAuthenticated is always false and so umbraco.library.IsLoggedON() is also always false.

    Does anyone know how i shoudl remeber the user?

    thanks in advance.

    I think you also need to set the authentication cookie after logging in.

    FormsAuthentication.SetAuthCookie(txtEmail.Text,true);

    Looking at this page : http://24days.in/umbraco/2012/creating-a-login-form-with-umbraco-mvc-surfacecontroller

    I see it uses MemberShip.ValidateUser. You will probably need to call that too.

    Hi Dave,

    I have also added the line Membership.ValidateUser which returns true, but still umbraco.library:IsLoggedOn() returns false.

    I had a userControl with a standard textbox and password field to enable the user to login.

    i have now changed this to a standard ASP.Net Login Control and i use the following code to login:
            <asp:Login ID="login" runat="server" DisplayRememberMe="false" LoginButtonText="Login" LoginButtonStyle-CssClass="knop rechts" OnLoggingIn="Login_OnLoggingIn">

            </asp:Login>


        protected void Login_OnLoggingIn(object sender, EventArgs e)
        {
            string hashedPassword = AmatecWebsite.Extensions.Clients.ClientRepository.verifyHash(login.UserName, login.Password);
            Member m = Member.GetMemberFromLoginNameAndPassword(login.UserName, hashedPassword);
            bool validate = Membership.ValidateUser(login.UserName, hashedPassword);
            if (m != null && login.UserName != string.Empty && login.Password != string.Empty && hashedPassword != string.Empty)
            {
                Member.AddMemberToCache(m);
                FormsAuthentication.SetAuthCookie(login.UserName, true);
                string sSessionID = OrderManagement.SpecialSessionID();
                SessionHandler.CurrentClientID = m.Id;

                ShoppingCart.MergeShoppingCarts(sSessionID, m.Id);
                AmatecWebsite.Extensions.Orders.ShoppingCartManagement.UpdateItemsInShoppingCartMini();

                FormsAuthentication.RedirectFromLoginPage(login.UserName, true);
            }

    But still umbraco.library:IsLoggedOn is always false.

    It almost seems like i should be looking somewhere else?

    As the line in my previous suggested: i had to look somewhere else.

    My web.config was missing: <authentication mode="Forms" />
    When i added that everything worked as it should.

    Thanks Dave for your help.
