Question

I am trying to add some dates to some asp.net membership fields (LastLoginDate, LastPasswordChangedDate, etc)

so what I did was

DateTime sendDate = new DateTime(1754, 1, 1, 12, 0, 0);

then I tired to use linq to sql and add them.

It comes back with an exception

"SqlDateTime overflow. Must be between 1/1/1753 12:00:00 AM and 12/31/9999 11:59:59 PM."

I am not sure how to convert it into something that will be let in.

DateTime dateFields = new DateTime(1800, 1, 1, 12, 0, 0);
aspnet_Membership membership = new aspnet_Membership();
                membership.ApplicationId = applicationId;
                membership.UserId = userId;
                membership.Password = password;
                membership.PasswordFormat = passwordFormat;
                membership.PasswordSalt = base64Salt;
                membership.MobilePIN = null;
                membership.Email = email;
                membership.LoweredEmail = email.ToLower();
                membership.PasswordQuestion = null;
                membership.PasswordAnswer = null;
                membership.IsApproved = isApproved;
                membership.IsLockedOut = false;
                membership.CreateDate = dateCreated;
                membership.LastLoginDate = dateFields;
                membership.LastPasswordChangedDate = dateFields;
                membership.LastLoginDate = dateFields;
                membership.FailedPasswordAttemptWindowStart = dateFields;
                membership.FailedPasswordAnswerAttemptCount = 0;
                membership.FailedPasswordAnswerAttemptWindowStart = dateFields;
                membership.FailedPasswordAnswerAttemptCount = 0;
                membership.Comment = null;


                // from asp.net mvc unleashed book.
                GenericRepository.Create<aspnet_Membership>(membership);

Answer 1

Where do you get “dateCreated” from in the c#? What value is it?

And you are not setting “LastLockoutDate”… you actually have “LastLoginDate” twice. What values are being set for LastLockoutDate?

It looks like “dateFields” is correct for datetime in SQL Server terms (which is used by aspnet_Membership), perhaps the error comes from elsewhere…
