ASP.NET Core MVC - Form Based Authentication

Question

User135423268 posted

I just starting to create a application on ASP.NET Core for our company, now on my previous ASP.Net MVC projects, I'm using the Form Based Authentication, which is working on my MVC Projects, I want to incorporate it on my MVC .NetCore project but I'm having trouble on it, for example, I configure the login page on the web.config on my MVC project, I tried to add a web.config on my .NetCore MVC, and add the same configuration but it's not working.

What I want to do is when the user visit the page it will redirect him/her to the login page.

here's the configuration:

    <sessionState mode="InProc" cookieless="false" timeout="90" regenerateExpiredSessionId="false" />
    <authentication mode="Forms">
      <forms loginUrl="~/account/login" defaultUrl="~/Home/Index" timeout="90" slidingExpiration="false" />
    </authentication>

Here's my code for on my authentication:

                                FormsAuthentication.SetAuthCookie(LoginInfo.Username, False)
                                FormsAuthentication.RedirectFromLoginPage(LoginInfo.Username.Trim, False)

Now the reason why we are using this authentication instead of Claims/Roles and EntityFramework because we are still using our old authentication databases and we are still not looking to change it. I hope someone can help me on this.

Thanks and regards.
