Anti-forgery token issue (MVC 5)
I am having an issue with the anti-forgery token :( I have created my own User class which worked fine but now I am getting an error whenever I go to the /Account/Register page. The error is:
A claim of type 'http://schemas.xmlsoap.org/ws/2005/05/identity/claims/nameidentifier' or 'http://schemas.microsoft.com/accesscontrolservice/2010/07/claims/identityprovider' was not present on the provided ClaimsIdentity. To enable anti-forgery token support with claims-based authentication, please verify that the configured claims provider is providing both of these claims on the ClaimsIdentity instances it generates. If the configured claims provider instead uses a different claim type as a unique identifier, it can be configured by setting the static property AntiForgeryConfig.UniqueClaimTypeIdentifier.
I found this article:
so I changed my Application_Start method to this:
protected void Application_Start()
{
AreaRegistration.RegisterAllAreas();
FilterConfig.RegisterGlobalFilters(GlobalFilters.Filters);
RouteConfig.RegisterRoutes(RouteTable.Routes);
BundleConfig.RegisterBundles(BundleTable.Bundles);
AntiForgeryConfig.UniqueClaimTypeIdentifier = ClaimTypes.Email;
}
but when I do that, I get this error:
A claim of type 'http://schemas.xmlsoap.org/ws/2005/05/identity/claims/emailaddress' was not present on the provided ClaimsIdentity.
Has anyone come across this before? If so, do you know how to solve it?
Cheers in advance,

Here is my custom user class:
public class Profile : User, IProfile
{
public Profile()
: base()
{
this.LastLoginDate = DateTime.UtcNow;
this.DateCreated = DateTime.UtcNow;
}
public Profile(string userName)
: base(userName)
{
this.CreatedBy = this.Id;
this.LastLoginDate = DateTime.UtcNow;
this.DateCreated = DateTime.UtcNow;
this.IsApproved = true;
}

public class ProfileContext : IdentityStoreContext
{
public ProfileContext(DbContext db)

{
this.Users = new UserStore<Profile>(this.DbContext);
}
}
public class ProfileDbContext : IdentityDbContext<Profile, UserClaim, UserSecret, UserLogin, Role, UserRole>
{

I profile is just simple for my repositories, looks like this:
public interface IProfile
{
string Id { get; set; }
string CompanyId { get; set; }
string UserName { get; set; }
string Email { get; set; }
string CredentialId { get; set; }
}
and the User class is the Microsoft.AspNet.Identity.EntityFramework.User class. My AccountController looks like this:
[Authorize]
public class AccountController : Controller
{
public IdentityStoreManager IdentityStore { get; private set; }
public IdentityAuthenticationManager AuthenticationManager { get; private set; }
public AccountController()
{
this.IdentityStore = new IdentityStoreManager(new ProfileContext(new ProfileDbContext()));
this.AuthenticationManager = new IdentityAuthenticationManager(this.IdentityStore);
}
//
// GET: /Account/Register
[AllowAnonymous]
public ActionResult Register()
{
return View();
}
//
// POST: /Account/Register
[HttpPost]
[AllowAnonymous]
public async Task<ActionResult> Register(RegisterViewModel model)
{
if (ModelState.IsValid)
{
try
{
// Create a profile, password, and link the local login before signing in the user
var companyId = Guid.NewGuid().ToString();
var user = new Profile(model.UserName)
{
CompanyId = companyId,
Title = model.Title,
Forename = model.Forename,
Surname = model.Surname,
Email = model.Email,
CompanyName = model.CompanyName,
CredentialId = model.CredentialId
};
if (await IdentityStore.CreateLocalUser(user, model.Password))
{
//Create our company
var company = new Skipstone.Web.Models.Company()
{
Id = companyId,
CreatedBy = user.Id,
ModifiedBy = user.Id,
Name = model.CompanyName
};
using (var service = new CompanyService())
{
service.Save(company);
}
await AuthenticationManager.SignIn(HttpContext, user.Id, isPersistent: false);
return RedirectToAction("Setup", new { id = companyId });
}
else
{
ModelState.AddModelError("", "Failed to register user name: " + model.UserName);
}
}
catch (IdentityException e)
{
ModelState.AddModelError("", e.Message);
}
}
// If we got this far, something failed, redisplay form
return View(model);
}
//
// POST: /Account/Setup
public ActionResult Setup(string id)
{
var userId = User.Identity.GetUserId();
using (var service = new CompanyService())
{
var company = service.Get(id);
var profile = new Profile()
{
Id = userId,
CompanyId = id
};
service.Setup(profile);
return View(company);
}
}
}
It used to be decorated with the [ValidateAntiForgeryToken] attribute, but that is where it stopped working.
I hope that is enough code :)
Answer
Try setting (in global.cs):
AntiForgeryConfig.UniqueClaimTypeIdentifier = ClaimTypes.NameIdentifier;
