Hello,

I've bought this book (an excellent one).

Unfortunately in chapter 06 (a role-base security) I have a problem with the code.
I changed in table ENTUserAccount an user with ID=1 for "a correct MyUser which is a dbo" and I did correct a connection string but I still have an error on an url (for instance):
http://localhost/PaidTimeOffUI/Admin...istration.aspx

System.NullReferenceException

" in a row 101: of the ENTMenuItemBO.cs"
....
a row 99: {
a row 100: //Check if this user is in this role
a row 101: if (role.RoleUserAccounts.IsUserInRole(userAccount.ID ))
a row 102: {
a row 103: //Try to find the capability with the menu item Id.
....

Any ideas .
(I using VS 2008 Team System, MS SQL 2005 Std on Vista Ultimate and Integrated Security in MS SQL)

Hello Jeremie,

The WindowsAccountName in the ENTUserAccount table should be changed to the windows account name that you logged on as, i.e. ComputerName\YourName. This is not a SQL Login account.

You also need to make sure Integrated Windows Authentication is checked for your website in IIS. The web site is using the current windows identity to find a matching user in the ENTUserAccount table.

Please let me know if this helps,
Vince

Hello Mr Vincent Varallo,

Thanks a lot for your attention.

I did a correct an account (domain\username) but it was a problem connected with "a disabling an anonymous authentication in IIS 7".

I thought that I did it (in Vista is done in a different way than in W2003).

Of course all examples are correct.

Good job this book!
Jeremy
