Description:
In previous post I explained clearly about create users using CreateUserWizard in asp.net membership or programmatically insert user details in membership and create or removes roles in asp.net membership and Assign roles to users .Now I will explain how to get forgot password using passwordrecovery control.
In many websites we will see option like forgot password this will help us to recover forgot password of users. If we click on forgot password option then they will take username or email after that they will check those details in database if those are exists then they will send new password details to our email.
To implement this one we need to write much code if we use asp.net membership concept we can achieve this functionality just by using passwordrecovery control.
The PasswordRecovery control consists of three views:
UserName – In First view user needs to enter correct username. If username exists in membership then it will display another option i.e. Question and answer otherwise it will throw error like “we are unable to access your information”.
Question and Answer – After Username validated then it will ask for security question and answer. This Question and answer optional if we don’t want we can remove by setting some properties in web.config. If we remove these options passwordrecovery control will send mail after successful validation of username. To remove Question and Answer option we need to set option requiresQuestionAndAnswer="false" in web.config. Check this post to set properties remove Question and answer options
Success – After successful validation of security questions and answer it displays a message informing to user that his password has been emailed.
Passwordrecovery control will reset existing password and it will send new password to our email.
After successful verification of username, password we need to send mail for that we need to add smtp server hostname, port address in web.config section using <system.net> in configuration section.
<configuration>
<system.net>
<mailSettings>
<smtp deliveryMethod="Network" from="administrator@aspdotnet-suresh.com">
<network host="100.33.1.1" port="25"/>
</smtp>
</mailSettings>
</system.net>
</configuration>
|
Now open your aspx drag and drop PasswordRecovery control from Login Controls section after that our page code will be like this
<html xmlns="http://www.w3.org/1999/xhtml">
<head runat="server">
<title>Forgot Password in asp.net membership</title>
</head>
<body>
<form id="form1" runat="server">
<div>
<asp:passwordrecovery ID="Passwordrecovery1" runat="server"> </asp:passwordrecovery>
</div>
</form>
</body>
</html>
|
Here don’t forgot to set database connection and smtp settings in web.config
First set the connectionstring and smtp settings in configuration section like this
<connectionStrings>
<add name="dbconnection" connectionString="Data Source=SureshDasari;Initial Catalog=AspMembership;Integrated Security=true" providerName="System.Data.SqlClient"/>
</connectionStrings>
<system.net>
<mailSettings>
<smtp deliveryMethod="Network" from="administrator@aspdotnet-suresh.com">
<network host="100.33.1.1" port="25"/>
</smtp>
</mailSettings>
|
After that write the following code in system.web section
<membership>
<providers>
<clear/>
<add name="AspNetSqlMembershipProvider" type="System.Web.Security.SqlMembershipProvider" connectionStringName="dbconnection" applicationName="SampleApplication"/>
</providers>
</membership>
<profile>
<providers>
<clear/>
<add name="AspNetSqlProfileProvider" type="System.Web.Profile.SqlProfileProvider" connectionStringName="dbconnection" applicationName="SampleApplication"/>
</providers>
</profile>
<roleManager enabled="true">
<providers>
<clear/>
<add name="AspNetSqlRoleProvider" type="System.Web.Security.SqlRoleProvider" connectionStringName="dbconnection" applicationName="SampleApplication"/>
</providers>
</roleManager>

@Comment 4....
i hope that problem because of you didn't install asp.net membership database in your sql server. please install it based on this post http://www.aspdotnet-suresh.com/2011/01/how-to-use-custom-database-for-aspnet.html
@suresh gupta....
that problem is because of your smtp server. Please check your smtp server connection correct or not.
sir in above code what will be application name in my case.i mean what is applicationName?
@suresh gupta..
applicationName means your project name
hie there, i want to be able to pass multiple parameters
to another page. currently, i am able to do so, but
somehow i feel it is not the correct way to do it. below
is part of what i have so far.
'first page
Private Sub btnOK_ServerClick(ByVal sender As
System.Object, ByVal e As System.EventArgs) Handles
btnOK.Click
Response.Redirect("InputValues.aspx?Requestor=" &
txtRequestor.Text & " Lower= " & txtLower.Text)
End Sub
'second page
Private Sub Page_Load(ByVal sender As System.Object, ByVal
e As System.EventArgs) Handles MyBase.Load
'Put user code to initialize the page here
Dim strRequestor As String
strRequestor = Request.QueryString("Requestor")
Response.Write("Requestor = " & strRequestor)
End Sub
the output i will get is :
Requestor = * Lower = 10
My question is, how can i pass the 2nd parameter(in the
txtLower.Text) to the next page without passing the
keyword "Lower" and still obtain the same output?
i want my second page to look like this:
Private Sub Page_Load(ByVal sender As System.Object, ByVal
e As System.EventArgs) Handles MyBase.Load
'Put user code to initialize the page here
Dim strRequestor As String
Dim strLower As String
strRequestor = Request.QueryString("Requestor")
Response.Write("Requestor = " & strRequestor)
Response.Write("
")
strLower = Request.QueryString("Lower")
Response.Write(strLower)
End Sub
Please help, and thanx in advance.

The SMTP server requires a secure connection or the client was not authenticated. The server response was: 5.7.0 Must issue a STARTTLS command first. pl10sm15290604pbc.1 - gsmtp
