When you need to authenticate against the Aptify Services API using Web User names and passwords, you must set up Web User authentication.
In some distributions of Aptify Web in Aptify 5.5.2 or lesser, the spValidateWebUser Database Object is missing and must be created.
SQL: spValidateWebUser_20141017.txt
Grant SQL: GRANT EXECUTE ON spValidateWebUser TO [_cgi_AptifySOAAppPoolGroup]
Step-by-step guide
- Open the HTML5 Web Service Application record located in Web services Application.
- Navigate to the Service Application Authentication Providers Tab.
- If Web User is not already in the list of Authentication Providers, create a new subtype record for Web Users.
- Save the Service Application record.
- Open Internet Information Services (IIS) Manager, navigate to the Aptify Services API, and choose IIS Authentication.
Ensure that Anonymous Authentication is Enabled and all other methods are Disabled.
In Aptify 5.5.1 and the GA release of Aptify Web, disabling ASP.NET Impersonation authentication will cause problems with logging in to Aptify Web. We recommend setting up a separate Services site for Web User authentication in this case. It should use the same Aptify database as everything else.
In Aptify 5.5.2, Aptify Web authentication should behave correctly with only Anonymous authentication enabled.
- Restart the site containing the Aptify Services API.
