C# and MySql .Net Connector...and simple Mysql Login?
MySQL .Net connector is a great way to integrate my MySQL databases with my VB and C# web applications in Visual Studio 2010.
Although I am fairly new to using this intermediate there are wonderful resources that explain how to use the MySQL Website Configuration Tool to manage authentication. After installation (http://dev.mysql.com/downloads/connector/net/) I find the configuration tool located in the Solution Explorer to allow authentication customization. Although this is a wonderful resource I am faced with a challenge.
I need to create another login system inside the primary application that queries a specific table (Group managers)and checks >1
I'm already using the MySQL Website Configuration Tool provided by MySQL .Net connector to manage accounts and profiles created in the MySQL database to manage authentication
My second login only needs to evaluate the table (Group Managers)and check >1
So basically, does anyone know of a tut that will explain to me how to create a simple MySQL login in C# ASP.NET in Visual Studio 2010 that checks a MySQL table(Group Managers) "|id|usename|password|" and checks >1???
Thank you
Charlie

Re: C# and MySql .Net Connector...and simple Mysql Login?
Welcome to the FORUMS!
SQL Statements can connect to any data source, but you'd need to know it, the table name, the field name(s)/sequence, etc.
Can you open the source table any other way?

Re: C# and MySql .Net Connector...and simple Mysql Login?
I do agree, I am under the understanding that Connector/Net is a fully managed ADO.NET driver for MySQL. Which is awesome! So I guess perhaps I am wondering if I could be pointed to a resource that would give me some direction...
1)Install Connector
2) New C# Web application
3) Go to Server explorer, and connect to new DB
4)Select Data Source and Creds
5)New Web Form
7)Drag in a Login component from the toolbox into design view
8)Double click the login control
9) And.......This does not work. (But web applications don't use a resource folder)
Im just a little lost
public bool tryLogin(string username,string password)
{
MySqlConnection con = new MySqlConnection("host=localhost;usr=root;password=mypassword;db=mydatabase;");
MySqlCommand cmd = new MySqlCommand("SELECT * FROM users WHERE username = '" + username + "' AND mypass = '" + password + "';");
cmd.Connection = con;
con.Open();
MySqlDataReader reader = cmd.ExecuteReader();
while (reader.Read())
{
if(reader.GetString(0) != 1)
{ return false; }
else
{ return true; }
}
cmd.Connection.Close();
reader.Dispose();
cmd.Dispose();
}
}
