Hi,

im following the User Registered Event Handlers tutorial . 

i created a new class library project called "phytech.Business.WebHelpers" and in it created a class file called "CreateUserDirectory.cs" 

i copied the class code from the  tutorial  and renamed the class name to "public class CreateUserDirectory : UserRegisteredHandlerProvider"

but the tutorial says i must also change the namespace name , but if i change it to

 namespace phytech.Business.WebHelpers.UserRegisteredHandlers

the code indicates that the " : UserRegisteredHandlerProvider" is not recognized and its missing a reference.

if i change it back to "mojoPortal.Business.WebHelpers.UserRegisteredHandlers" then it build fine.

am i doing something wrong, do i need to add a reference somewhere ? copy the project files ?  or is it a mistake in the tutorial ? 

Thanks

Hi Joe, yes,  i want to create a directory for each authenticated user. i did as you wrote and added the "authenticated users" group to the Administration > Site Settings > Security > Permissions > Roles that can upload files but only to a user specific location.

now i created a new user from the administration "add new user". where can i see the newly created folder ?

basically i have an FTP client interface and i want to use it to upload files to this user directory, so what i'll do is turn it into a FTP virtual directory from the web server FTP management. i just need to know where this folder tree is created.

Thanks again, this will save me a lot of time.

ok, these are the steps i took so far:

1. continuing the GuestBook tutorial (after i have created the 3 tiers - phytech.Web.UI, phytech.Business, phytech.Data.MSSQL)

 i added a class library project called phytech.Business.WebHelpers .

2. changed the class name to "CreateUserDirectory.cs"

3. replaced the code with the code you suggested.

using System;
using System.Configuration.Provider;
using System.Collections.Generic;
using System.Text;
using System.Web;
using System.IO;
using mojoPortal.Web.Framework;
using mojoPortal.Business;
using log4net;

namespace phytech.Business.WebHelpers.UserRegisteredHandlers {

    public class CreateUserDirectory : UserRegisteredHandlerProvider
    {
        private static readonly ILog log = LogManager.GetLogger(typeof(CreateUserDirectory));

public CreateUserDirectory()
{ }

public override void UserRegisteredHandler(object sender, UserRegisteredEventArgs e)
{

.....    

}}}

4.created the folder structure "Setup\ProviderConfig\userregisteredhandlers\"  and added the xml file "CreateDirectoryUserregisteredhandler.config" with this code:

<?xml version="1.0" encoding="utf-8" ?>
<UserRegisteredEventHandlers>
  <providers>
    <add name="CreateUserDirectory" type="phytech.Business.WebHelpers.UserRegisteredHandlers.CreateUserDirectory, phytech.Business.WebHelpers"
description="class for creating a user folder when a user is created" />

  </providers>
</UserRegisteredEventHandlers>

5. added these lines to the "phytech.Web.UI" project - post build event:

xcopy /s /y "$(ProjectDir)Setup\ProviderConfig\userregisteredhandlers\*.config" "$(SolutionDir)Web\Setup\ProviderConfig\userregisteredhandlers\"

xcopy /s /y "$(ProjectDir)bin\phytech.Business.WebHelpers.dll" "$(SolutionDir)Web\bin\"

6. Build phytech.Web.UI

im getting this error during the build (10 out of 11 projects build fine except for this one):

------ Build started: Project: phytech.Business.WebHelpers, Configuration: Debug Any CPU ------
C:\...\...\...\mojoportal\_sts_Phytech_Projects\phytech.Business.WebHelpers\CreateUserDirectory.cs(14,40): error CS0246: The type or namespace name 'UserRegisteredHandlerProvider' could not be found 

i tried adding the mojoportal.business.WebHelpers reference to the phytech.Business.WebHelpers, but it didn't help.

can you tell what it is im doing wrong ?

Thanks

Boaz

yeh, thanks for the tip.

i also needed to add -

using mojoPortal.Business.WebHelpers.UserRegisteredHandlers;   for it to work

and change

e.SiteUser.SiteID.ToInvariantString()  to

e.SiteUser.SiteId.ToInvariantString() 

now it build ! great, i'll move forward and see if it works.
