I glad that fixed the issue.    I'll talk to Trent about including a RBS version of a web sample too.  Thanks for you persistence in getting this working Jeff!

You got to be kidding me!!!! After a week and half of shear fustration it comes down to one simple missing line of code in the Global.asax to fix the issue.   Obviously, you had mention this line of code a few posts back.  But being new to ASP.NET, I was working off of the Global.asax in your Web Sample and I that's what got me confused.  After all of this, I hope this will help others who are getting started with ASP.NET using Strataframe RBS.  Probably it would be a good idea in the future to include this information in the Global.asax file in your Web Sample to help ASP.NET newbies like me.

Thank you for all of your help and the awesome support!!!!!!

I haven't got this to run yet (I have to run an errand), but I did look at the code and the exception.  You don't have a call to SetSecurityKeyAndVectorForUserAuthentication. Add this line in global.asax at the end of the start app method and see if it works.

SecurityBasics.SetSecurityKeyAndVectorForUserAuthentication( "MySecurityKey" );

Let me know. If there is still a problem, I'll get it running and see what else might be the issue.

Hi Greg,

After clearing the attachments in my profile as you suggested, I was finally able to upload the attachment. 

It has a simple solution that duplicates the Web User Authentication failure which includes the Windows Form project (works fine), the Web project, my BO class library and the SQLServer express 2005 database.  Also, I did some more troubleshooting and found an exception was being thrown by _Cipher.Decrypt(…) method in the SFSUsersBO constructor when debugging from the Web Solution.  I have included a screen shot of the exception info.  By the way, I am using VS2008.

I tried to attached a sample solution duplicating the problem along with the exception image (8 MB) and it tells me I have exceeded my available space.  Therefore, I am going to email it to Trent/Support.

Not seeing the attachment Jeff....

By the way, I did some more troubleshooting and found that the _Cipher.Decrypt(...) method in the SFSUsersBO constuctor is throwing an exception when I am debugging from within the Web Form project. So the Me.ParseString(...) method is never called which causes the Me._Hash variable to be empty. Again, the method works fine from the Windows Form project. Within the attached zip file is a screen shot of the exception. I hope all of this helps.

Good point, Greg!

Not forgetting, just trying to figure out why.

Check that the SetSecurityKeyAndVectorForUserAuthentication() is using the same key in both the windows and web app.

If that doesn't work, you may need to setup a sample app that reproduces the issue. The solution would include a winform app and a web project both using the same security db (that you'd include and that would obviously be a test db, not a real one).

Jeff,

I've not forgotten about it.  I am going to setup a test as I know that this is a configuration issue.  If you could supply a sample that would be even better, so that we are working on the same set of settings and data.  But I will see if I can tell where you are going wrong.  I have never seen a situation this hard to setup, so there is definitely something in the mix.
