Security Accessibility issue Quartz.Core.QuartzScheduler.InitializeLifetimeService() - asp.net-mvc-3

I'm using Quartz.NET is 2.2.3 in MVC3 application. Here's my code:
protected void Application_Start()
{
AreaRegistration.RegisterAllAreas();
WebApiConfig.Register(GlobalConfiguration.Configuration);
FilterConfig.RegisterGlobalFilters(GlobalFilters.Filters);
RouteConfig.RegisterRoutes(RouteTable.Routes);
BundleConfig.RegisterBundles(BundleTable.Bundles);
StartScheduler();
}
public static void StartScheduler()
{
ISchedulerFactory schedulerFactory = new StdSchedulerFactory();
IScheduler scheduler = schedulerFactory.GetScheduler();
scheduler.Start();
var jobDetail = new JobDetailImpl("General", null, typeof(Schedule));
var trigger = new SimpleTriggerImpl("SampleTrigger",
null,
DateTime.UtcNow,
null,
SimpleTriggerImpl.RepeatIndefinitely,
TimeSpan.FromHours(24));
scheduler.ScheduleJob(jobDetail, trigger);
}
During first run, I get following error:
Inheritance security rules violated while overriding member: 'Quartz.Core.QuartzScheduler.InitializeLifetimeService()'. Security accessibility of the overriding method must match the security accessibility of the method being overriden.
Source=Quartz TypeName=Quartz.Core.QuartzScheduler.InitializeLifetimeService()
StackTrace:

But, when I request second time, then it runs properly. please help me to resolve this.

Which Insights implementation guarantees all exceptions get logged?

We have a global.asax.cs file which contains this code...
Approach One
public class WebApiApplication : System.Web.HttpApplication
{
TelemetryClient _telemetry = new TelemetryClient(new Microsoft.ApplicationInsights.Extensibility.TelemetryConfiguration() {
InstrumentationKey = EnvironmentHelper.InstrumentationKey,
ConnectionString = EnvironmentHelper.AppInsightsConnectionString
});
protected void Application_Start()
{
HttpConfiguration config = GlobalConfiguration.Configuration;
GlobalConfiguration.Configure(WebApiConfig.Register);
}
}
I am concerned that this will not log every and all exceptions to Insights. Would it be better to use this code?...
Approach Two
public class WebApiApplication : System.Web.HttpApplication
{
TelemetryClient _telemetry = new TelemetryClient(...);
protected void Application_Start()
{
HttpConfiguration config = GlobalConfiguration.Configuration;
config.Filters.Add(new CustomExceptionFilter()); // ADDED LINE
GlobalConfiguration.Configure(WebApiConfig.Register);
}
protected void Application_Error(Object sender, EventArgs e) // ADDED METHOD
{
Exception appException = Server.GetLastError();
_telemetry.TrackException(appException);
}
}
// ADDED CLASS
public class CustomExceptionFilter : ExceptionFilterAttribute
{
TelemetryClient _telemetry = new TelemetryClient(...);
public override void OnException(HttpActionExecutedContext actionExecutedContext)
{
_telemetry.TrackException(actionExecutedContext.Exception);
base.OnException(actionExecutedContext);
}
}
Are these approaches equal or is one more reliable?
Not sure what do you mean all exceptions get logged.
Actually, Application Insights will auto collect unhandled exceptions thrown in the controller methods automatically for WebAPI 2+, exception the following scenario:
Exceptions thrown from controller constructors.
Exceptions thrown from message handlers.
Exceptions thrown during routing.
Exceptions thrown during response content serialization.
Exception thrown during application start-up.
Exception thrown in background tasks.
And For the other exceptions which are handled by application, still need to be tracked manually. You can use the telemetryclient to track these exceptions.
The referenced doc is here.

Global exception handling in OWIN middleware

I'm trying to create a unified error handling/reporting in ASP.NET Web API 2.1 Project built on top of OWIN middleware (IIS HOST using Owin.Host.SystemWeb).
Currently I used a custom exception logger which inherits from System.Web.Http.ExceptionHandling.ExceptionLogger and uses NLog to log all exceptions as the code below:
public class NLogExceptionLogger : ExceptionLogger
{
private static readonly Logger Nlog = LogManager.GetCurrentClassLogger();
public override void Log(ExceptionLoggerContext context)
{
//Log using NLog
}
}
I want to change the response body for all API exceptions to a friendly unified response which hides all exception details using System.Web.Http.ExceptionHandling.ExceptionHandler as the code below:
public class ContentNegotiatedExceptionHandler : ExceptionHandler
{
public override void Handle(ExceptionHandlerContext context)
{
var errorDataModel = new ErrorDataModel
{
Message = "Internal server error occurred, error has been reported!",
Details = context.Exception.Message,
ErrorReference = context.Exception.Data["ErrorReference"] != null ? context.Exception.Data["ErrorReference"].ToString() : string.Empty,
DateTime = DateTime.UtcNow
};
var response = context.Request.CreateResponse(HttpStatusCode.InternalServerError, errorDataModel);
context.Result = new ResponseMessageResult(response);
}
}
And this will return the response below for the client when an exception happens:
{
"Message": "Internal server error occurred, error has been reported!",
"Details": "Ooops!",
"ErrorReference": "56627a45d23732d2",
"DateTime": "2015-12-27T09:42:40.2982314Z"
}
Now this is working all great if any exception occurs within an Api Controller request pipeline.
But in my situation I'm using the middleware Microsoft.Owin.Security.OAuth for generating bearer tokens, and this middleware doesn't know anything about Web API exception handling, so for example if an exception has been in thrown in method ValidateClientAuthentication my NLogExceptionLogger not ContentNegotiatedExceptionHandler will know anything about this exception nor try to handle it, the sample code I used in the AuthorizationServerProvider is as the below:
public class AuthorizationServerProvider : OAuthAuthorizationServerProvider
{
public override Task ValidateClientAuthentication(OAuthValidateClientAuthenticationContext context)
{
//Expcetion occurred here
int x = int.Parse("");
context.Validated();
return Task.FromResult<object>(null);
}
public override async Task GrantResourceOwnerCredentials(OAuthGrantResourceOwnerCredentialsContext context)
{
if (context.UserName != context.Password)
{
context.SetError("invalid_credentials", "The user name or password is incorrect.");
return;
}
var identity = new ClaimsIdentity(context.Options.AuthenticationType);
identity.AddClaim(new Claim(ClaimTypes.Name, context.UserName));
context.Validated(identity);
}
}
So I will appreciate any guidance in implementing the below 2 issues:
1 - Create a global exception handler which handles only exceptions generated by OWIN middle wares? I followed this answer and created a middleware for exception handling purposes and registered it as the first one and I was able to log exceptions originated from "OAuthAuthorizationServerProvider", but I'm not sure if this is the optimal way to do it.
2 - Now when I implemented the logging as the in the previous step, I really have no idea how to change the response of the exception as I need to return to the client a standard JSON model for any exception happening in the "OAuthAuthorizationServerProvider". There is a related answer here I tried to depend on but it didn't work.
Here is my Startup class and the custom GlobalExceptionMiddleware I created for exception catching/logging. The missing peace is returning a unified JSON response for any exception. Any ideas will be appreciated.
public class Startup
{
public void Configuration(IAppBuilder app)
{
var httpConfig = new HttpConfiguration();
httpConfig.MapHttpAttributeRoutes();
httpConfig.Services.Replace(typeof(IExceptionHandler), new ContentNegotiatedExceptionHandler());
httpConfig.Services.Add(typeof(IExceptionLogger), new NLogExceptionLogger());
OAuthAuthorizationServerOptions OAuthServerOptions = new OAuthAuthorizationServerOptions()
{
AllowInsecureHttp = true,
TokenEndpointPath = new PathString("/token"),
AccessTokenExpireTimeSpan = TimeSpan.FromDays(1),
Provider = new AuthorizationServerProvider()
};
app.Use<GlobalExceptionMiddleware>();
app.UseOAuthAuthorizationServer(OAuthServerOptions);
app.UseOAuthBearerAuthentication(new OAuthBearerAuthenticationOptions());
app.UseWebApi(httpConfig);
}
}
public class GlobalExceptionMiddleware : OwinMiddleware
{
public GlobalExceptionMiddleware(OwinMiddleware next)
: base(next)
{ }
public override async Task Invoke(IOwinContext context)
{
try
{
await Next.Invoke(context);
}
catch (Exception ex)
{
NLogLogger.LogError(ex, context);
}
}
}
Ok, so this was easier than anticipated, thanks for #Khalid for the heads up, I have ended up creating an owin middleware named OwinExceptionHandlerMiddleware which is dedicated for handling any exception happening in any Owin Middleware (logging it and manipulating the response before returning it to the client).
You need to register this middleware as the first one in the Startup class as the below:
public class Startup
{
public void Configuration(IAppBuilder app)
{
var httpConfig = new HttpConfiguration();
httpConfig.MapHttpAttributeRoutes();
httpConfig.Services.Replace(typeof(IExceptionHandler), new ContentNegotiatedExceptionHandler());
httpConfig.Services.Add(typeof(IExceptionLogger), new NLogExceptionLogger());
OAuthAuthorizationServerOptions OAuthServerOptions = new OAuthAuthorizationServerOptions()
{
AllowInsecureHttp = true,
TokenEndpointPath = new PathString("/token"),
AccessTokenExpireTimeSpan = TimeSpan.FromDays(1),
Provider = new AuthorizationServerProvider()
};
//Should be the first handler to handle any exception happening in OWIN middlewares
app.UseOwinExceptionHandler();
// Token Generation
app.UseOAuthAuthorizationServer(OAuthServerOptions);
app.UseOAuthBearerAuthentication(new OAuthBearerAuthenticationOptions());
app.UseWebApi(httpConfig);
}
}
And the code used in the OwinExceptionHandlerMiddleware as the below:
using AppFunc = Func<IDictionary<string, object>, Task>;
public class OwinExceptionHandlerMiddleware
{
private readonly AppFunc _next;
public OwinExceptionHandlerMiddleware(AppFunc next)
{
if (next == null)
{
throw new ArgumentNullException("next");
}
_next = next;
}
public async Task Invoke(IDictionary<string, object> environment)
{
try
{
await _next(environment);
}
catch (Exception ex)
{
try
{
var owinContext = new OwinContext(environment);
NLogLogger.LogError(ex, owinContext);
HandleException(ex, owinContext);
return;
}
catch (Exception)
{
// If there's a Exception while generating the error page, re-throw the original exception.
}
throw;
}
}
private void HandleException(Exception ex, IOwinContext context)
{
var request = context.Request;
//Build a model to represet the error for the client
var errorDataModel = NLogLogger.BuildErrorDataModel(ex);
context.Response.StatusCode = (int)HttpStatusCode.InternalServerError;
context.Response.ReasonPhrase = "Internal Server Error";
context.Response.ContentType = "application/json";
context.Response.Write(JsonConvert.SerializeObject(errorDataModel));
}
}
public static class OwinExceptionHandlerMiddlewareAppBuilderExtensions
{
public static void UseOwinExceptionHandler(this IAppBuilder app)
{
app.Use<OwinExceptionHandlerMiddleware>();
}
}
There are a few ways to do what you want:
Create middleware that is registered first, then all exceptions will bubble up to that middleware. At this point just write out your JSON out via the Response object via the OWIN context.
You can also create a wrapping middleware which wraps the Oauth middleware. In this case it will on capture errors originating from this specific code path.
Ultimately writing your JSON message is about creating it, serializing it, and writing it to the Response via the OWIN context.
It seems like you are on the right path with #1. Hope this helps, and good luck :)
The accepted answer is unnecessarily complex and doesn't inherit from OwinMiddleware class
All you need to do is this:
public class HttpLogger : OwinMiddleware
{
public HttpLogger(OwinMiddleware next) : base(next) { }
public override async Task Invoke(IOwinContext context)
{
await Next.Invoke(context);
Log(context)
}
}
Also, no need to create extension method.. it is simple enough to reference without
appBuilder.Use(typeof(HttpErrorLogger));
And if you wanna log only specific requests, you can filter on context properties:
ex:
if (context.Response.StatusCode != 200) { Log(context) }

Autofac, Owin, Webapi and injecting to AuthorizationServerProvider

After reading questions and articles about using autofac with owin and webapi, I came across a solution to inject services but it does not work. Here is my code:
public class StartUp
{
public void Configuration(IAppBuilder app)
{
HttpConfiguration config = new HttpConfiguration();
WebApiConfig.Register(config);
var builder = new ContainerBuilder(); // Create the container builder.
builder.RegisterApiControllers(Assembly.GetExecutingAssembly()); // Register the Web API controllers.
var authcontext = new AuthContext();
builder.RegisterInstance(authcontext).AsSelf().SingleInstance();
//Updated
//var simpleauth = new SimpleAuthorizationServerProvider();
//Updated
// builder.RegisterInstance(simpleauth).SingleInstance().AsSelf().PropertiesAutowired();
builder.Register(x => new UserStore<IdentityUser>(authcontext)).As<IUserStore<IdentityUser>>();
//updated
builder.Register(x =>
{
var p = new SimpleAuthorizationServerProvider();
var userStore = x.Resolve<IUserStore<IdentityUser>>();
p.userManager = new UserManager<IdentityUser>(userStore);
return p;
}).AsSelf().PropertiesAutowired();
builder.RegisterType<AuthRepository>().As<IAuthRepository>().InstancePerRequest().PropertiesAutowired();
var container = builder.Build();
var resolver = new AutofacWebApiDependencyResolver(container); // Create an assign a dependency resolver for Web API to use.
config.DependencyResolver = resolver;
app.UseAutofacMiddleware(container);
app.UseCors(Microsoft.Owin.Cors.CorsOptions.AllowAll);
app.UseWebApi(config);
ConfigureOAuth(app, resolver);
}
public void ConfigureOAuth(IAppBuilder app, AutofacWebApiDependencyResolver resolver)
{
OAuthAuthorizationServerOptions OAuthServerOptions = new OAuthAuthorizationServerOptions()
{
AllowInsecureHttp = true,
TokenEndpointPath = new PathString("/token"),
AccessTokenExpireTimeSpan = TimeSpan.FromDays(1),
//updated
Provider = new SimpleAuthorizationServerProvider()
//resolver.GetService(typeof(SimpleAuthorizationServerProvider)) as SimpleAuthorizationServerProvider
};
// Token Generation
app.UseOAuthAuthorizationServer(OAuthServerOptions);
app.UseOAuthBearerAuthentication(new OAuthBearerAuthenticationOptions());
}
}
But in SimpleAuthorizationServerProvider class, when a method like ValidateClientAuthentication is begin called, all the services are null, here is the code:
public readonly IAuthRepository repository;
public readonly UserManager<IdentityUser> userManager;
public readonly AuthContext dbContext;
public SimpleAuthorizationServerProvider()
{
}
public override async Task ValidateClientAuthentication(OAuthValidateClientAuthenticationContext context)
{
string clientId;
string clientSecret;
if (context.TryGetFormCredentials(out clientId, out clientSecret))
{
try
{
Client client = await repository.FindClientById(clientId);
}
}
}
Would you help me please ?
Updated
If in ConfigureOAuth method I use the following approach:
OAuthAuthorizationServerOptions OAuthServerOptions = new OAuthAuthorizationServerOptions()
{
AllowInsecureHttp = true,
TokenEndpointPath = new PathString("/token"),
AccessTokenExpireTimeSpan = TimeSpan.FromDays(1),
Provider = resolver.GetService(typeof(SimpleAuthorizationServerProvider)) as SimpleAuthorizationServerProvider
};
I get error:
An exception of type 'Autofac.Core.DependencyResolutionException' occurred in Autofac.dll but was not handled in user code
Additional information: No scope with a Tag matching 'AutofacWebRequest' is visible from the scope in which the instance was requested. This generally indicates that a component registered as per-HTTP request is being requested by a SingleInstance() component (or a similar scenario.) Under the web integration always request dependencies from the DependencyResolver.Current or ILifetimeScopeProvider.RequestLifetime, never from the container itself.
When you register an instance of an object rather than a type, even if you specify PropertiesAutowired that will not take effect because Autofac assumes you've done all the work you want when you create the instance. If you want properties wired in, you need to do that in an OnActivated handler.
There are actually a lot of things at play in this sample code that will not work.
The values in SimpleAuthorizationServerProvider are fields not properties so PropertiesAutowired won't work on them.
The fields are marked readonly and they're never set.
You have UserManager<IdentityUser> registered as a lambda but also have PropertiesAutowired which won't work - you can only use PropertiesAutowired on a reflection-based component (e.g., RegisterType<T>).
Consider registering a lambda for your provider and set everything in the lambda:
builder.Register(c => {
var p = new SimpleAuthorizationServerProvider();
p.repository = c.Resolve<UserManager<IdentityUser>>();
// ...and so on
return p;
}).AsSelf().SingleInstance();
Also, keep in mind that if you register an instance (or register something as SingleInstance the properties will be resolved one time and that's it. So if you have some dependencies that are InstancePerDependency or InstancePerRequest, that's not going to work the way you think - they'll be resolved one time and effectively be singletons after that.
Update 1
Based on the original and updated code, it occurs to me that it would be good if you could check out some of the Autofac doc to understand better how it works. For example, the use of fields in SimpleAuthorizationServerProvider shows you may not totally get how injection works in Autofac or how to properly register things so Autofac can do the work for you.
Registration concepts
Web API integration
Working with per-request lifetime
For example, looking at the updates...
You now have a lambda registered for the SimpleAuthorizationServerProvider but I don't see where you set the repository field there.
You don't need PropertiesAutowired on the SimpleAuthorizationServerProvider registration because you're registering a lambda and the properties will not be autowired (as noted earlier).
The only component I see as being registered InstancePerRequest is the AuthRepository but, like I said, I don't see where that's being resolved or set - and that's the only thing that would generate the exception you noted. There is an FAQ on dealing with that exact exception that you should look into.
Also, you are showing two different versions of the OAuthServerOptions being initialized and it's hard to tell which one is "real."
I would recommend a fairly major refactoring to enable things to actually use DI correctly.
Change the SimpleAuthorizationServerProvider to stop using public fields and add them as constructor parameters so Autofac can wire the stuff up for you.
public class SimpleAuthorizationServerProvider
{
public IAuthRepository Repository { get; private set; }
public UserManager<IdentityUser> UserManager {get; private set; }
public AuthContext Context { get; private set; }
public SimpleAuthorizationServerProvider(
IAuthRepository repository,
UserManager<IdentityUser> userManager,
AuthContext context)
{
this.Repository = repository;
this.UserManager = userManager;
this.AuthContext = context;
}
}
During startup, fix your registrations to remove extraneous stuff and take advantage of the Autofac auto-wiring goodness.
public class StartUp
{
public void Configuration(IAppBuilder app)
{
var config = new HttpConfiguration();
WebApiConfig.Register(config);
var builder = new ContainerBuilder();
builder.RegisterApiControllers(Assembly.GetExecutingAssembly());
// Register the auth context instance but skip
// the extra .AsSelf() and .SingleInstance() because
// it's implicit.
builder.RegisterInstance(new AuthContext());
// Use the lambda to resolve the auth context rather
// than making a closure over an instance.
builder.Register(c => new UserStore<IdentityUser>(c.Resolve<AuthContext>()))
.As<IUserStore<IdentityUser>>();
// Just register the provider type and let Autofac
// do the work without all this manual stuff. Skip
// the .AsSelf() because it's implicit if you don't
// specify other interfaces and don't auto-wire properties
// because you don't need it.
builder.RegisterType<SimpleAuthorizationProvider>();
// This is fine, but I can't tell where it's used - if
// you are using it at app startup or OUTSIDE a request,
// you will get that exception you noted. Also, unless
// you're actually using property injection, lose the
// .PropertiesAutowired() call.
builder.RegisterType<AuthRepository>()
.As<IAuthRepository>()
.InstancePerRequest()
.PropertiesAutowired();
var container = builder.Build();
var resolver = new AutofacWebApiDependencyResolver(container);
config.DependencyResolver = resolver;
app.UseAutofacMiddleware(container);
app.UseCors(Microsoft.Owin.Cors.CorsOptions.AllowAll);
app.UseWebApi(config);
ConfigureOAuth(app, resolver);
}
public void ConfigureOAuth(IAppBuilder app, AutofacWebApiDependencyResolver resolver)
{
var options = new OAuthAuthorizationServerOptions()
{
AllowInsecureHttp = true,
TokenEndpointPath = new PathString("/token"),
AccessTokenExpireTimeSpan = TimeSpan.FromDays(1),
// If you want the values to be wired up, you have
// to do a resolve. Note, however, that since you're
// doing this wire-up at app startup, there's no request
// scope, so if something in here is registered `InstancePerRequest`
// you will get an exception.
Provider = resolver.GetService(typeof(SimpleAuthorizationServerProvider)) as SimpleAuthorizationServerProvider
};
app.UseOAuthAuthorizationServer(options);
app.UseOAuthBearerAuthentication(new OAuthBearerAuthenticationOptions());
}
}
Under the assumption that's all the code you should be OK. If things aren't set - like one of the SimpleAuthorizationServerProvider properties comes through as null, or if you get an exception because it's missing a dependency, or if you get the exception about there being no request scope... then there's something else going on that you haven't put in your question.
Again, please take the time to check out the docs and familiarize yourself with Autofac. I think many of the troubles you're running into are the result of some misunderstanding on how things get wired up.

Structure Map parameterless constructor error

I am trying to set up structure map ver 3.0.5.0 with Web API 2.
I have followed this implementation: Configuring dependency injection with ASP.NET Web API 2.1
However, I am getting this error when doing a get against my ComplexesController:
An error occurred when trying to create a controller of type 'ComplexesController'. Make sure that the controller has a parameterless public constructor.
Can anyone see what is wrong with my structuremap config? The Create method never gets called.
This is my implementation:
public class StructureMapControllerActivator : IHttpControllerActivator
{
private readonly IContainer _container;
public StructureMapControllerActivator(IContainer container)
{
if (container == null) throw new ArgumentNullException("container");
_container = container;
}
public IHttpController Create(HttpRequestMessage request, HttpControllerDescriptor controllerDescriptor, Type controllerType)
{
try
{
var scopedContainer = _container.GetNestedContainer();
scopedContainer.Inject(typeof(HttpRequestMessage), request);
request.RegisterForDispose(scopedContainer);
return (IHttpController)scopedContainer.GetInstance(controllerType);
}
catch (Exception e)
{
// TODO : Logging
throw e;
}
}
}
This method is in my startup...
public void InitializeContainer()
{
// STRUCTURE MAP
Container container = new Container();
GlobalConfiguration.Configuration.Services.Replace(typeof(IHttpControllerActivator), new StructureMapControllerActivator(container));
container.Configure(x => x.For<IForumRepository>().Use<ForumRepository>());
container.Configure(x => x.For<IComplexRepository>().Use<ComplexRepository>());
}
.. and this is the controller:
public class ComplexesController : ApiController
{
private IComplexRepository _repo;
public ComplexesController(IComplexRepository repo)
{
_repo = repo;
}
// GET: api/Complexes
public IList<Complex> GetComplexes()
{
var complexes = _repo.GetList();
return complexes;
}
...
My full Startup class
[assembly: OwinStartup(typeof(AngularJSAuthentication.API.Startup))]
namespace AngularJSAuthentication.API
{
public class Startup
{
public void Configuration(IAppBuilder app)
{
HttpConfiguration config = new HttpConfiguration();
WebApiConfig.Register(config);
app.UseWebApi(config);
}
}
}
The problem here is that you are registering your service activator with a GlobalConfiguration object and not your HttpConfiguration object. In this scenario The GlobalConfiguration object is never used as it is replaced by the HttpConfiguration object. In order to solve your issue you should replace your InitializeContainer() method with the following.
public void InitializeContainer(HttpConfiguration config)
    {
        // STRUCTURE MAP
        Container container = new Container();
        config.Services.Replace(typeof(IHttpControllerActivator), new StructureMapControllerActivator(container));
        container.Configure(x => x.For<IForumRepository>().Use<ForumRepository>());
        container.Configure(x => x.For<IComplexRepository>().Use<ComplexRepository>());        
    }
you should then pass the HttpConfiguration object from your Startup class to the new InitializeContainer() method.
Hope this helps.
-B
I am trying to gain a solid understanding of the complete lifecycle. I think my setup may be slightly different to the above. Here is what worked for me.
public partial class Startup
{
public void Configuration(IAppBuilder app)
{
var config = new HttpConfiguration();
var container = IocConfig.Setup();
// Allow a controller to be declared without a parameterless constructor
config.DependencyResolver = new DependencyResolver(container);
config.Services.Add( typeof(IExceptionLogger), new GlobalExceptionLogger( container.GetInstance<ILoggingService>()));
// Web API routes
config.MapHttpAttributeRoutes();
// Setup Authentication
ConfigureOAuth(app, container);
var corsOptions = CorsOptions.AllowAll;
app.UseCors(corsOptions);
// Add ASP.Net Web API to OWIN pipeline
app.UseWebApi(config);
}
}
It worked after I added this line:
// Allow a controller to be declared without a parameterless constructor
config.DependencyResolver = new DependencyResolver(container);
You have to get that my var container loads from a static class called IocConfig with a static Setup method. This is where the interfaces are mapped to their concrete implementations.
Also, you can probably ignore the GlobalExceptionLogger line if you want to use my complete example.

How do I create a Quartz.NET’s job requiring injection with autofac

I am trying to get Quartz.net (2.1.2) to work with an IoC container (autofac), as I have services I need to use in the scheduled jobs. I have found similar posts on the subject, but I can't seem to find one with a specific registration example for autofac.
The following post deals with the same issue I am having:
How to schedule task using Quartz.net 2.0?
However, the part I believe I am missing is when the answer says "And don't forget to register the job in the IoC container". I am unsure how to do this exactly, as everything I have tried so far hasn't worked.
In the following example, the "HelloJob" will run, but whenever I try to inject the releaseService into the "ReleaseJob" it refuses to run.
Update:
I marked the code in the DependencyRegistration.cs section where I believe the issue is.
Update 2:

I finally tracked down what the issue was.
My release service was using a data repository which was being created with a different scope.
I discovered this by creating a new test service that did nothing but return a string, and that worked being injected into a quartz job.
On discovering this, I changed the scope of the repository called upon by the release service , and then the release service started working inside the quartz job.
My apologies to anyone that looked at this question to try and help me out. Because the code of the release service was not listed, it would have been difficult to figure out what was wrong.
I have updated the code with the final working bindings I used for quartz with autofac.
The problem is that your AutofacJobFactory is not creating the ReleaseJob (you are doing this with JobBuilder.Create<ReleaseJob>() instead), so the IoC container is not aware of it's instantiation meaning dependency injection cannot occur.
The following code should work:
sched = schedFact.GetScheduler();
sched.JobFactory = new AutofacJobFactory(container);
sched.Start();
// construct job info
JobDetailImpl jobDetail = new JobDetailImpl("1Job", null, typeof(ReleaseJob ));
ITrigger trigger = TriggerBuilder.Create()
.WithIdentity("1JobTrigger")
.WithSimpleSchedule(x => x
.RepeatForever()
.WithIntervalInSeconds(5)
)
.StartNow()
.Build();
sched.ScheduleJob(jobDetail, trigger);
Note that in this example we are not using JobBuilder.Create<ReleaseJob>() anymore, instead we pass the details of the job to be created via the JobDetailImpl object and by doing this the scheduler's jobfactory (the AutofacJobFactory) is responsible for instantiating the job and Dependency injection can occur.
