I am setting up a DDn9 Website. I am installing a custom authentication provider. I was following this tutorial:

http://www.dnnsoftware.com/community-blog/cid/134678/dotnetnuke-tips-and-tricks-12-creating-your-own-authentication-provider

However, I am having issues with the login.

A critical error has occurred. Please check the Event Viewer for further details.

I think there is something wrong with my linkage in the web.config file. I was wondering if you need a tutorial or an example that would show up the web.config file was a set up for custom authentication provider.

A little debugging should be able to help you identify what isn't being initialized correctly.

  • When I debugged I got the error is at vendorToken = SvcProxy.VendorTokenEncrypt(SSOVendorUsername, SSOVendorPassword, SSOVendorBlock, ssoRedirectUrl); It is the SvcProxy that is null. which means this doesn't create it: private static readonly serviceSoapClient SvcProxy = new serviceSoapClient(SSOServiceEndpoint, SSOWebReferenceURL); Both SSOServiceEndpoint and SSOWebReferenceURL are correct and set in the web.config. So i think there is something else i forget to set that deals with sso or xml serialization.... – It's Just a Printer Driver May 24 '17 at 13:32
