asked on

Label field is not correctly updating the .text property when data is assigned to it.

I have developed a small application that has a basic login screen for users.  When the user attemtps to login, I assign a label.text property a message stating that the user name does not exist or the password was not correct.  Everything worked fine on my devleopment machine but when I pushed my application over to the server where it will actually live,  the user attemtps to login and the screen just flashes and then returns them back to the login screen.  None of the lables appear to state whether there was a problem with the username or password.  This feature works fine on my development machine but not the server.

My development machine is running Windows XP and Visual Studio 2008.

The server where the app will live is a Windows 2000 server running IIS.  

I have made sure the browser allows cookies, is set to low priority, is a trusted site.....as many things as I could think of and it still has the problem.

Any help on this problem would be greatly appreciated.

There could be several reasons..
1: Make sure browser accepts cookies
2: If you are using roles make sure they are working properly on Production
3:Also check Forms Authentication is enabled in your web.config i.e. it did not changed somehow while you pushed on production

Put some debugging code:
Place a LoginName and LoginStatus Control on your login page...
Put some Response.Writr or Messagebox to pop up in several places whereever you have lable to see what part of the code is causing the problem...

Could you show me your complete code behind?

I will post up my web.config and asp.net code as soon as I get the chance.
 
As far as a I know, I did not have form authentication because I do not know how to do that.

Good, that clarifies some points. I'm asking to see your full source code because I'm suspecting that you maybe have some kind of code on your Page_Load event that may reset the value of your labels.

you have  <authentication mode="Windows" />
You are using Windows authentication and still providing login form to the users.

Change that to  <authentication mode="Forms" />

Now For Trouble shooting purpose add LoginName control to your Login page and see what value it is displaying.

Thank you.  I will try that.  Can you tell me exactly how the <authentication mode="Forms" />
 works.  Also, I have never used the LoginName control.  What does that do and when should I use it versus how I have my login setup right now.
 
Thanks
Kenny

The Introduction Tutorials here: http://www.asp.net/learn/security/
will explain about Forms Authentication.
Also check this: http://www.codedigest.com/Articles/ASPNET/112_Implementing_Forms_Authentication_in_ASPNet_20.aspx

LoginName Control will display nothing more than the Current logged-in user name. This will only display the username if you are using Forms or Windows authentication.

I tried <authentication mode="Forms" />
 but that still do not work.  When I added the login name it showed me my windows login when I had the mode set to windows.  When I set it to forms, it show nothing for the login.  Any ideas?
Could this be a setting in IIS?
Thanks

guru sami,
I finally figured it out.  I had moved my application from development to production and when I did I did not realize about the data that I needed to setuip in the other tables.  I had only setup a user record in the user table but did not setup records in the other table.  Consequently, it could not find a record in the practice table and therefore never hit the else statement that sent the user to the menu.  I wanted to award you the points because you enlightened me to a technology I had no idea about.  Since you told me about forms authentication I have been reading up on it and plan on implementing it in my application.  Thank you for all your help.

Thanks
Kenny
