    Problem updating members password using Umbraco version 7.10.3

    Extending Umbraco and using the API
    Umbraco 7

    I'm just wonder if anyone can help me.

    My register function it's not working after I update my Umbraco to 7.10.3 I got an error in memberService.SavePassword

    This provider does not support manually changing the password

    Stack Trace:

       [NotSupportedException: This provider does not support manually changing the password]
   Umbraco.Core.Security.MembershipProviderBase.ChangePassword(String username, String oldPassword, String newPassword) +403
   Umbraco.Core.Services.MemberService.SavePassword(IMember member, String password)

    I found that the solution for this is to set to allowManuallyChangingPassword to false. But I can't locate this in my Web.Config.

    Thanks in advance,

    Jin

    Hi Jin

    I just had a look in the web.config for the Umbraco 7.10.3 install and I believe that the attribute you mention should be set on this element (Full config snippet from the web.config)

    But I suppose that it should already be there depending on how you did your upgrade to 7.10.3 of course - Maybe you should do a check on your current web.config file against a "clean" web.config file from the 7.10.3 install to make sure you have got all the possible changes merged into your web.config using a tool like http://winmerge.org/ if you have not done so already? :)

    If you have not already read Shannons comments about using this old method it would probably also be a good idea to read what he writes about the above method her http://issues.umbraco.org/issue/U4-10361 and here https://our.umbraco.org/forum/extending-umbraco-and-using-the-api/87391-creating-new-members-password-is-stored-as-plain-text since this method is no longer recommended to be used so if possible a code refactor might be even better :)

    I hope this helps!

    Cheers, Jan

    Hi Jan,

    Thanks for your reply.

    I already fixed it. By adding allowManuallyChangingPassword="true" in UmbracoMembershipProvider

    <add name="UmbracoMembershipProvider" type="Umbraco.Web.Security.Providers.MembersMembershipProvider, Umbraco" allowManuallyChangingPassword="true" .....

    Cheers,
