I use asp.net MVC.
I need to know when a user is logging off, in order to write to data base
So- Is there an event for the authentication_end, such as the event session_end in global.asax file ?
Thank you!
you can use cookies for session management.
FormsAuthentication For
and in global.asax
use following event.
public void FormsAuthentication_OnAuthenticate(object sender, FormsAuthenticationEventArgs args)

In some request, I need to change this alert to be somewhere on the screen, so how I can disable the default behavior when failing the request the alert show up by abp.message.error and I need to disable it and use another way.
You can send all exception details to the client easily. There's a setting for this purpose.
...
using Abp.Web.Configuration;
...
public override void PreInitialize()
{
Configuration.Modules.AbpWebCommon().SendAllExceptionsToClients = true;
}
...

Besides, you can disable exception handling for an application service or for an application service method. Just use [DontWrapResult] attribute for that.
public interface ITestAppService : IApplicationService
{
[DontWrapResult]
DoItOutput DoIt(DoItInput input);
}

We are creating webevents in a DB other than Kentico. These webevents are then used for enterprise reporting. I need to implement the same inside Kentico project.
Is there an event that can fire after the page has loaded so that i can create my web event with page name and user information if logged in.
I have also seen in the past that with events, the Request and Session objects are not available. However, HTTPContext.Current is available. I need the Request and Session objects.
We are using Kentico version 7.0.92 and have a portal template site.
Now, i don't want to use portal template page to create events since this code executes multiple times with each request for a page.
Basically, i am interested in the PageName, Session and Request objects.
I have looked around Kentico 7 documentation. Looks like we have CMSRequestEvents but haven't been able to find sample code.
Update:
Looks like the missing piece is CMSContext class. Now just trying to find the right event for CMSRequestEvents, where i have the Session object available.
I'd suggest modifying Kentico\CMS\Global.asax.cs in the following way:
public override void Init()
{
base.Init();
CMSRequestEvents.AcquireRequestState.After += AcquireRequestState_After;
}
void AcquireRequestState_After(object sender, EventArgs e)
{
// Do your stuff...
}
By that time the HttpContext.Current.Session should already be initialized. Page name can be retrieved from the HttpContext.Current.Request which should never be null.
I am building a website using spring mvc. Just I built the login screen and the related controllers and services.
Now when validating the user credentials if the given password is wrong then it should navigate back to the login.jsp page. If the inputs are correct then it should navigate to userHomepage.jsp page.
I have done this as below,
try {
loginService.checkUserValidity(userId, password);
return new ModelAndView("userHomePage"); //if all the user credentials are good then redirect the user to User Home Page
} catch (UserNotExistsException e) {
loginResult = e.toString();
return new ModelAndView("login", "loginResult", loginResult);
} catch (InvalidPasswordException e) {
loginResult = e.toString();
return new ModelAndView("login", "loginResult", loginResult);
}
In the above code snippet I was hardcoding the navigating pages file names in ModelAndView (like login, userHomePage etc.,).
Is it correct approach to hardcode them? Is it possible to specify the page navigation using some properties kind of file in spring MVC like in JSF? Is spring MVC webflow sole purpose that?
Thanks
It's not unusual to hae the views specified as you have them.
If you have complex navigation you wanr to specify in an XML file, like JSF, Spring Webflow is for you. It can be tricky to set up, but provides a nice framework for complex navigation.
Have you set up Spring Security? The user is sent to the login page (form) when he's unauthorised, otherwise to the page he requested.
Is there any way to set a custom error page in IIS 7 without creating a web.config?
Unfortunately researching this particular topic has been very difficult because there are SO many articles on how to do it with a web.config. What I'm looking for is either buried beneath the 8 million results I don't want or it's not possible.
Yes, there is. It involves either subscribing to the Application_Error event in Global.asax or by writing a custom ErrorHandlerAttribute.
Darin already gave the correct answer, but I want to go into a little more depth.
In any ASP.NET application, given it is Web Forms, MVC, or raw ASP.NET, you can always use Application_Error Global.asax. If your ASP.NET application does not have a Global.asax, all you need to do is right-click your project in Solution Explorer, Add New Item, and choose Global Application Class. You should only have this option available if you don't already have one.
In your Global.asax, if you don't already see it, you can add Application_Error as shown below:
protected void Application_Error(object sender, EventArgs e) {
}
This will be called automatically by ASP.NET whenever there is an error. But as stated here, this is not perfect. Specifically:
An error handler that is defined in the Global.asax file will only
catch errors that occur during processing of requests by the ASP.NET
runtime. For example, it will catch the error if a user requests an
.aspx file that does not occur in your application. However, it does
not catch the error if a user requests a nonexistent .htm file. For
non-ASP.NET errors, you can create a custom handler in Internet
Information Services (IIS). The custom handler will also not be called
for server-level errors.
In Application_Error you can process the uncaught exception with Server.GetLastError(). This will provide you the Exception that was thrown, or null. I am not sure why this handler would be called if an exception didn't occur, but I believe that it is possible.
To redirect the user, use Response.Redirect(). Whatever you pass for the url is going to be sent directly to the browser without any further processing, so you can't use application-relative paths. To do that I would use this method in combination with VirtualPathUtility.ToAbsolute(). For example:
Response.Redirect( VirtualPathUtility.ToAbsolute( "~/Error.aspx" ) );
This redirect will be a 302 (temporary redirect) rather than a 301 (permanent), which is what you want in the case of handling errors. It's worth noting that this overload of Response.Redirect is the same as calling the overload Response.Redirect(url, endResponse: true). This method works by throwing an exception, which is not ideal in terms of performance. Instead, call Response.Redirect(url, false) immediately followed by Response.Complete​Request().
If you're using ASP.NET MVC, [HandleError] is also an option. Place this attribute on your Controller or on an Action within a controller. When this attribute is present, MVC will display the Error view, found in the ~/Views/Shared folder.
But you can make this even easier for yourself. You can automatically add this attribute to call Controllers in your project by creating a FilterConfig class in your project. Example:
public class FilterConfig {
public static void RegisterGlobalFilters(GlobalFilterCollection filters) {
filters.Add(new HandleErrorAttribute());
}
}
And then add FilterConfig.RegisterGlobalFilters( GlobalFilters.Filters ); to your Application_Start() in Global.asax.
You can read more about the HandleErrorAttribute at https://msdn.microsoft.com/en-us/library/system.web.mvc.handleerrorattribute(v=vs.118).aspx.
But as stated above, both of these methods will never cover absolutely all errors that can occur during the processing of your application. It's not possible to provide the best user experience for all possible errors without using Web.config or configuring IIS manually.
I will appreciate any help on steps for an implementation to switch an MVC3/Razor Web Application to offline mode for maintenance. At the offline mode only a static page could be seen by the public but an administrator who is logged in should be able to view, browse and update the site fully. Ideally I want the web administrator just to tick on a value at the administrative back-end which will be registered in the database.
You could simply check some condition within BeginRequest in Global.asax.
protected void Application_BeginRequest()
{
if (myDb.SiteIsOffline && !CurrentUserIsAdministrator())
Response.Redirect("~/offline.html");
}
