Hi Dennis,

I believe the authentication mechanism is working fine because, the SignOut feature is present and is working properly. The strange thing is that when I check for SPContext.Current.Web.CurrentUser for some custom webparts (in a separate subsite) it works fine, while in the same session when it doesnt work for other webparts (in root site).

I tried comparing the Anonymous access permission b/w the subsite and the root site, but they look the same.

It means that the user hasn’t been authenticated properly and is still treated as an anonymous user. Try to verify whether your authentication mechanism works properly, i.e., by checking the Sign Out button on the top of the page, or work with some out-of-the-box document libraries (upload/edit files).

Normally you only need to do it once per site collection.
Do you get the valid value if you call HttpContext.Current.Identity?

Hi Denni,

When the FBA user is created we are doing the SPWeb.EnsureUser. Any suggestions where else do i need to do the same? Or are you saying I need to do the same after the user is authenticated?

Rgds,

Hi,

It seems that the user object has not been added to the SharePoint site. If you know the user’s login name, you can use the SPWeb.EnsureUser method to add them to the site.

More information about this method:

Comment on Refreshing the LINQ to SQL DataContext by Clearing the Cache by Anonymous

Hi Alex,

This article is only for LINQ to SQL. Since it’s a calling a L2S private method, there’s no guarantee that method exists in other libraries.

Other possible workarounds are just like you said, by disposing and recreating the DataContext instance, or simple instantiate a new DataContext instance.
