WebForms HTML WebForms Controls WebForms ValidationWebSecurity - InitializeDatabaseConnection()
WebSecurity Object
Definition
The InitializeDatabaseConnection() method initializes the WebSecurity database.
The method initializes the WebSecurity system by connecting to the database that contains user and membership information.
C# and VB Syntax
WebSecurity.InitializeDatabaseConnection(connectionString, userTableName,
userIdColumn, userNameColumn, autoCreateTables)
Parameters
| Parameter | Type | Description |
|---|---|---|
| connectionString | String |
The name of your WebSecurity database (se remarks) |
| userTableName | String | The database table that contains the user profile information |
| userIdColumn | String | The database column that contains the user IDs (primary keys) |
| userNameColumn | String | The database column that contains the user names |
| autoCreateTables | Boolean | true indicates that user profile and membership tables should be created if they do not exist, otherwise false |
Return Value
None.
Remarks
If you are using SQL Server Compact, connectionString should be the name of the WebSecurity database (without the .sdf file name extension). Otherwise it should be the name of a connection string in the web configuration (web.config file).
 |
Even if autoCreateTables can force the database tables to be created automatically, the database itself must always exist. |
|---|
Errors and Exceptions
The InitializeDatabaseConnection() method throws an InvalidOperationException if:
- SimpleMembership is not initialized (or disabled in the website configuration)
