asp.net membership, role and profile providers
Is anybody successfully using the standard asp.net 2 features for membership and roles and user profile fields?
I am using the standard login controls that come with asp.net, and cannot get them to work consistently on my eukhost web site hosting although they work ok on our own machines.
A standard feature of asp.net 2 is that you can require users to have certain roles in order to access specific folders or pages on the site, but users dont pick up their roles when they log on.
You have to enter a valid username and password, or else you get an error message. But if when do enter a valid id and password, although it takes you from the login form to the home page, very often you are not properly logged on.
The login link should change to a "Welcome username" message and a logout link, but it does not, it still shows the login link. When this happens, you cannot access the restricted features, and pages that use user profile values will give errors.
Has anybody out there managed to get these features set up correctly?
