A test solution I have been working in recently at some unknown point started returning null for the Principal after LoginAsync is processed.  Here are the key points of my current solution configuration:

  • I have an implementation of IEntityLoginManager and it is definitely being found and called.
  • The IEntityLoginManager implementation is currently returning an instance of GenericPrincipal with a GenericIdentity.
  • There are no Exceptions being encountered or anything questionable being captured in DebugLog.xml.
  • When LoginAsync returns to the client the Principal object is null and SessionKey value is {00000000-0000-0000-0000-000000000000}.

I've gone as far as simply executing LoginAsync on the DefaultManager from App.Application_Startup() as the very first action in the application and even in this scenario the same outcome of a null Principal is encountered.  When recreating the scenario with just the key objects from the problematic solution in a new solution the Principal object is returned as expected clearly pointing to something I have specifically done wrong in the problematic solution.

Any feedback is greatly appreciated - I'd like to figure out what I have done to cause this issue so that it can be avoided in the future.

As a follow up - I was not able to figure out what this issue was.  I rebuilt a new solution piece-by-piece with the same objects/configurations from my jacked-up solution and was able to get it working as expected.  I'm chalking this up as a fluke (or lack of sleep for me).  Regardless, I'm back in business.

I wasn't able to reproduce the problem, either. Glad you've got it working now.
