I am trying to get user account management working in an asp.net mvc5 website I am building. New user creation is mostly working, but I am having a problem displaying errors when an exception is thrown during the creation of the user. The exception is caught/handled and an error message is added to the ModelState object in the Create() action of my AdminController, but the error is not displayed when when I return to the Create view.
Other types of user creation errors, that do not result in an exception being thrown, do display properly. As a side note, when the problem occurs, a "spinner" on my browser never stops, indicating that the post that initiated the create action never completed. If I click on a menu in the browser, I navigate to the new page and the spinner goes away.
The Create() errors that display properly and are not associated with an exception occur when:
var newUserCreateResult = UserManager.Create(newUser, password)
returns:
newUserCreateResult.Succeeded == false
The create() errors that are associated with an exception and do not display properly occur when:
await UserManager.SendEmailAsync(newUser.Id, "Reset Password", "Please confirm your account and reset your password by clicking <a href=\"" + callbackUrl + "\">here</a>");
throws an exception. I'm using an SmtpMailService and an exception is thrown when the email server cannot be reached, or the smtp account configuration is incorrect.
Some things I've tried:
My Create() action:
// PUT: /Admin/Create
[Authorize(Roles = "Admin")]
[HttpPost]
[ValidateAntiForgeryToken]
#region public ActionResult Create(CreateUserDTO createUserDTO)
public async Task<ActionResult> Create(CreateUserDTO createUserDTO) {
ApplicationUser newUser = null;
try {
if (createUserDTO == null) {
return new HttpStatusCodeResult(HttpStatusCode.BadRequest);
}
var Email = createUserDTO.Email.Trim();
if (Email == "") {
throw new Exception("No Email");
}
// Create user
newUser = new ApplicationUser { UserName = Email, Email = Email };
var password = Membership.GeneratePassword(8, 3) + "aaZZ09";
var newUserCreateResult = UserManager.Create(newUser, password);
if (newUserCreateResult.Succeeded == true) {
UserManager.AddToRole(newUser.Id, createUserDTO.SelectedRole);
string code = await UserManager.GeneratePasswordResetTokenAsync(newUser.Id);
code = HttpUtility.UrlEncode(code);
var callbackUrl = Url.Action("ConfirmEmail", "Account", new { userId = newUser.Id, code = code }, protocol: Request.Url.Scheme);
await UserManager.SendEmailAsync(newUser.Id, "Reset Password", "Please confirm your account and reset your password by clicking <a href=\"" + callbackUrl + "\">here</a>");
return Redirect("~/Admin");
} else {
// Html.ValidationSummary displays these errors correctly
foreach (string msg in newUserCreateResult.Errors) {
ModelState.AddModelError(string.Empty, msg);
}
}
} catch (Exception ex) {
// Html.ValidationSummary DOESN NOT display these errors
ModelState.AddModelError(string.Empty, ex.Message);
}
if (newUser != null) {
UserManager.Delete(newUser);
}
createUserDTO.Roles = GetAllRolesAsSelectList();
return View("Create", createUserDTO);
}
My Create.cshtml view:
@model Nissan.Models.CreateUserDTO
@{
Layout = "~/Views/Shared/_Layout.cshtml";
}
@using (Html.BeginForm("Create", "Admin", FormMethod.Post, new { @class = "form-horizontal", role = "form" })) {
@Html.AntiForgeryToken()
<div class="form-horizontal">
<h4>Create User</h4>
<hr />
@Html.ValidationSummary(false, "", new { @class = "text-danger" })
<div class="form-group">
@Html.LabelFor(model => model.Email,
htmlAttributes: new { @class = "control-label col-md-2" })
<div class="col-md-10">
@Html.EditorFor(model => model.Email,
new { htmlAttributes = new { @class = "form-control" } })
@Html.ValidationMessageFor(model => model.Email, "",
new { @class = "text-danger" })
</div>
</div>
<div class="form-group">
@Html.LabelFor(model => model.Roles,
htmlAttributes: new { @class = "control-label col-md-2" })
<div class="col-md-10">
@Html.DropDownListFor(model => model.SelectedRole, (Model == null) ? null : Model.Roles);
</div>
</div>
<div class="form-group">
<div class="col-md-offset-2 col-md-10">
<input type="submit" value="Create" class="btn btn-default" />
@Html.ActionLink("Cancel",
"Index",
null,
new { @class = "btn btn-default" })
</div>
</div>
</div>
}
This problem mysteriously disappeared (after I rebooted my PC?). It's now posting errors from the exception as it should.
