Question
Is it possible to get the password of a user? How, please? When I've tried this code :
WebSecurity.InitializeDatabaseConnection("nectarys-pc.MonitoringN.dbo", "Superviseur", "UserId", "matricule", autoCreateTables: true);
var membership = (SimpleMembershipProvider)Membership.Provider;
model.motDePasse = membership.GetUser(superviseur.matricule, false).GetPassword();
This exception appears in the last line :
System.NotSupportedException: Specified method is not supported.
How to deal this?
Note that superviseur.matricule
is not the source of the problem.
