I want the user to add their names to the application(and I am successful in storing it) and keep login in with their email. But when login in I get "Invalid login attempt" and I am clueless as to why...
In the model(AccountViewModel
) I added Name:
[Required]
public string Name { get; set; }
In AccountController
I made the following changes to store the value on registration
var user = new ApplicationUser {
UserName = model.Name,
Email = model.Email
};
And in Register.cshtml
added a field to store their name
<div class="form-group">
@Html.LabelFor(m => m.Name, new { @class = "col-md-2 control-label" })
<div class="col-md-10">
@Html.TextBoxFor(m => m.Name, new { @class = "form-control" })
</div>
</div>
The only changes I made was to the UserName
and not the Email
. As the login uses the email I am not sure why the login should be affected..
// POST: /Account/Login
[HttpPost]
[AllowAnonymous]
[ValidateAntiForgeryToken]
public async Task<ActionResult> Login(LoginViewModel model, string returnUrl)
{
if (!ModelState.IsValid)
{
return View(model);
}
// This doesn't count login failures towards account lockout
// To enable password failures to trigger account lockout, change to shouldLockout: true
var result = await SignInManager.PasswordSignInAsync(model.Email, model.Password, model.RememberMe, shouldLockout: false);
switch (result)
{
case SignInStatus.Success:
return RedirectToLocal(returnUrl);
case SignInStatus.LockedOut:
return View("Lockout");
case SignInStatus.RequiresVerification:
return RedirectToAction("SendCode", new { ReturnUrl = returnUrl, RememberMe = model.RememberMe });
case SignInStatus.Failure:
default:
ModelState.AddModelError("", "Invalid login attempt.");
return View(model);
}
}
The UserName that you are using as the model name is the one used for identity authentification not the Email. In this case you probably need to create a new field to store your name.
