The authorization section is added with the correct allow rule. Thanks for fixing this bug. However, there is still something wrong. If you try to add a deny rule by changing line AuthorizationRule rule=new AuthorizationRule(AuthorizationRuleAction.Allow); to AuthorizationRule rule=new AuthorizationRule(AuthorizationRuleAction.Deny); Mono 2.8.1 will simply add an allow rule instead of the requested deny rule.

Is this bug fix included in Mono 2.8? If not, when will it be available from the repositories? I have just tested Mono 2.8 stable. Unfortunately, the behaviour is exactly the same as before. The fix is not included.

The project opens in WinXP/ VS2008 as well as Suse 11.2/ MonoDevelop 2.4. After opening the project press CTRL+F5 to run the web application once and compare the results. (1a) Displayed text in the browser under WinXP/ VS2008: config!=null auth!=null rule!=null more then 1 user! (1b) Displayed text in the browser under Suse 11.2/ current Mono 2.8 Preview/ MonoDevelop 2.4: Error: You must supply either a list of users or roles when creating an AuthorizationRule (2a) Contents of web.config file under WinXP/ VS2008: ?xml version=1.0 encoding=utf-8? configuration appSettings / connectionStrings / system.web authorization allow users=me / /authorization authentication mode=Windows / /system.web /configuration” (2b) Contents of web.config file under Suse 11.2/ current Mono 2.8 Preview/ MonoDevelop 2.4: ?xml version=1.0 encoding=utf-8? configuration appSettings / connectionStrings / system.web authentication mode=Windows / /system.web /configuration By comparing 1a and 1b we can conclude, that the application throws an exception under Mono 2.8. By comparing 2a and 2b we realize, that Mono 2.8 did not even add an authorization section. I hope this helps a bit in finding and understanding the problems.

https://bugzilla.novell.com/show_bug.cgi?id=579837 https://bugzilla.novell.com/show_bug.cgi?id=579837#c4 --- Comment #4 from QuickJack . test051...@hotmail.com 2010-09-16 19:42:59 UTC --- Hi Miguel, thanks for your detailed answer. Let me explain what I am doing with System.Configuration.Save(). I have created a web portal which allows to control a number of custom web applications. The portal extensively uses ASP.NET’s security features. Of course, detailed user information is stored in a database using ASP.NET’s default scheme. This web portal has an admin area which lists all applications that are accessible from the portal. Each application’s rights can be adjusted to control which user is allowed to run which applications. As a result, there is no more need to manually change configuration files. Currently I have created 5 independent applications which are controlled from my portal. All of these applications have been designed to be compatible to Linux/ Mono. The system is running under WinXP + Apache 2.2/ mod_aspdotnet. There are absolutely no problems with this setup. Of course there are a bunch of people which are using this system concurrently inside of an intranet. There are lot’s of roles and users. If several administrators would log in and try to change an application’s security settings at the same time, this might cause problems. But this case will propably never happen. But anyway, it should be possible to change a given web.config file’s authorization section. This is all I want to do. It works in Windows/ .Net so it should ideally also work in Linux/ Mono. But Mono’s Save() method always throws an exception when .Net’s Save() method does not! Tomorrow, I will prepare a test project and append this to the bug as a test case.

If the config.Save() is covered inside of a try/ catch block, firefox displays Error: You must supply either a list of users or roles when creating an AutorizationRule. However, I obviously specified a user. Apart from that, the code runs under Windows XP/ IIS without any problems. I am disappointed that Mono 2.8 still lacks support for basic ASP.NET security features and/ or support for reading/ writing web.config files. People don't need ASP.NET 4. What they really need is 100% support for ASP.NET 2! Please fix this before releasing Mono 2.8. Without that, I will not be able to convert my projects to Linux/ Mono. This is a must have feature! -- Configure bugmail: https://bugzilla.novell.com/userprefs.cgi?tab=email --- You are receiving this mail because: --- You are the QA contact for the bug.

It does a few things: (a) it restart the application, because of a change in web.config, this means that all running requests will be aborted until the new settings take place; (b) using a plain file-save operation to store your settings is not multi-request safe in the presence of various users making changes. We encourage developers to handle authentication and authorization through a database. -- Configure bugmail: https://bugzilla.novell.com/userprefs.cgi?tab=email --- You are receiving this mail because: --- You are the QA contact for the bug.
