Yo today I will show you a awesome TuT on how to make a register system belonging to some Login System..

Some people ask, if there's a register system belonging to some Login Systems, so I wrote a little Class which allows you to do that.


Current Solutions For Error's

Ok, if u have some error's with (anytype of this) " MySql.Data.MySqlClient"
Then download the MySql.Data.dll(At Requirements) OR [ [ Register or Signin to view external links. ] ]
Then add it into your project : Project > Add Existing Item > Filter so you can select a .DLL > Navigate to MySql.Data.dll > Add It , Now the most errors should be gone!
Got still error's?
Download the source below the thread.(U can mod it if u want.)


Introducing

This is a VB.NET Class, which allows your users to register an account, which gets saved on a MySQL Database online, so they can login everywhere.
It includes MD5 hashing of your password and usernames to increase the securtity.


Requirements

  • VB.NET Ide
  • Basic Knowledge of VB.NET
  • MySQL DLL for VB [ [ Register or Signin to view external links. ] ] [ [ Register or Signin to view external links. ] ]
  • A MySQL Database, which allows external acess ( Ohost/Funpic don't ) ( Just google or use something like [ Register or Signin to view external links. ] )

Getting Started


At first you need to create the needed databases. Use this as SQL command. Go to your PHPMyAdmin, select your database and click on SQL. ( [ Register or Signin to view external links. ] )

Add this:

DROP TABLE IF EXISTS `users`;
CREATE TABLE `users` (
  `ID` int(5) NOT NULL auto_increment,
  `username` varchar(255) default NULL,
  `password` varchar(255) default NULL,
  PRIMARY KEY  (`ID`)
) ENGINE=MyISAM AUTO_INCREMENT=9 DEFAULT CHARSET=latin1;

press OK and submit.

Then add the MD5 Module to your project: ( Credits go to: [ Register or Signin to view external links. ] )

Imports System.Security.Cryptography
Imports System.Text
Module MD5SECURITY
    Public Function MD5StringHash(ByVal strString As String) As String
  Dim MD5 As New MD5CryptoServiceProvider
  Dim Data As Byte()
  Dim Result As Byte()
  Dim Res As String = ""
  Dim Tmp As String = ""

  Data = Encoding.ASCII.GetBytes(strString)
  Result = MD5.ComputeHash(Data)
  For i As Integer = 0 To Result.Length - 1
    Tmp = Hex(Result(i))
    If Len(Tmp) = 1 Then Tmp = "0" & Tmp
    Res += Tmp
  Next
  Return Res
    End Function
End Module


Then the Registering class RegSys.vb:

Imports MySql.Data.MySqlClient
Public Class RegSys
    Private _connection As MySqlConnection = New MySqlConnection
    Private _adapter As New MySqlDataAdapter
    Private _query As String
    Private _command As New MySqlCommand
    Private _user As String
    Private _password(2) As String
    Public _continue As Boolean = False

    Public Function SetConnectionData(ByVal ip As String, ByVal username As String, ByVal pw As String, ByVal database As String)
  _connection.ConnectionString = "server=" & ip & ";" _
     & "user id=" & username & ";" _
     & "password=" & pw & ";" _
     & "database=" & database
    End Function

    Public Function InitializeLogin(ByVal usernametextbox As TextBox, ByVal pwtextbox As TextBox)
  _user = MD5StringHash(usernametextbox.Text)
  _password(0) = MD5StringHash(pwtextbox.Text)
  Try
    _connection.Open()    ' Try to connect
  Catch myerror As MySqlException
    MsgBox("No Connection to the Database!", MsgBoxStyle.Critical, "Fatal Error!")  ' If the person fails to connect
  End Try
  _query = "SELECT * FROM users WHERE username ='" + Replace(_user, " ", "") + "' AND password='" & Replace(_password(0), " ", "") & "'"
  _command.Connection = _connection
  _command.CommandText = _query

  _adapter.SelectCommand = _command
  Dim _myData As MySqlDataReader
  _myData = _command.ExecuteReader()    ' Start of the query
  If _myData.HasRows Then     ' If the query contains rows ( the password and username were right )
    MsgBox("Logon sucessful!")
    _connection.Close()
    _continue = True
  Else    ' If username / password are wrong
    MsgBox("Error! Wrong username/password!")
    _continue = False
  End If
    End Function

    Public Function InitializeRegister(ByVal usernametextbox As TextBox, ByVal pw1textbox As TextBox, ByVal pw2textbox As TextBox)
  _user = MD5StringHash(usernametextbox.Text)
  _password(0) = MD5StringHash(pw1textbox.Text)
  _password(1) = MD5StringHash(pw2textbox.Text)
  If _password(0) = _password(1) Then     ' If the textboxes passwords are the same
    Try
    _connection.Open()    ' Open the connection
    Catch myerror As MySqlException
    MsgBox("No connection to the database!", MsgBoxStyle.Critical, "Fatal Error!")
    End Try

    Dim myAdapter As New MySqlDataAdapter
    Dim SQLAbfrage As String = "SELECT * FROM users WHERE username='" + _user + "'" ' Query if the user already exists
    Dim _tmp_myCommand As New MySqlCommand
    _tmp_myCommand.Connection = _connection
    _tmp_myCommand.CommandText = SQLAbfrage

    myAdapter.SelectCommand = _tmp_myCommand
    Dim myData As MySqlDataReader
    myData = _tmp_myCommand.ExecuteReader()     ' Start query

    If myData.HasRows = 0 Then    ' If the username already exists it won't begin with the registration
    _connection.Close()
    _connection.Open()
    Dim registerfinal As New MySqlDataAdapter
    _tmp_myCommand.CommandText = "INSERT INTO users(username, password)" _
     & "VALUES('" & _user & "','" & _password(0) & "')"
    _tmp_myCommand.ExecuteNonQuery()    ' Start SQL query and insert
    MsgBox("The account with the name: " & usernametextbox.Text & " was created sucessfully!", MsgBoxStyle.Information, "Yep =)")
    _connection.Close()
    Else
    MsgBox("This username does already exist", MsgBoxStyle.Information, "Sorry")
    End If
  Else
    MsgBox("The passwords did not match!", MsgBoxStyle.Critical, "Error!")
  End If
    End Function
End Class


The rest is quite easy, you just need to set the connection from the class and reference the textboxes.

The register Form should look like this:
[ Register or Signin to view external links. ]

The code for registering is:
Dim myRegSys As New RegSys
myRegSys.SetConnectionData("12.345.678.910", "username", "password", "database")
myRegSys.InitializeRegister(TextBox1, TextBox2, TextBox3)


Put this into the Button Sub! On SetConnectionData replace 12.345.678.910 with your Server ip! Username and password are replaced with your database username and password and database is the database where you created the table.
Also replace the textboxes with the names of yours. (TextBox1 = username, TextBox2 = password, TextBox3 = Retyped password)

The Login Form should look like this:
[ Register or Signin to view external links. ]

The code for logging in is: ( Nearly the same )
Dim myRegSys As New RegSys
myRegSys.SetConnectionData("12.345.678.910", "username", "password", "database")
myRegSys.InitializeLogin(TextBox1, TextBox2)


SetConnectionData will be the same like registering. Also the TextBoxes. (TextBox1 = username, TextBox2 = password)
If anything is unclear, look at the comments in the class or ask here

Thanks, it didnt work for me yet. And the link to the source is dead, but thanks.
It keeps saying: Connection must be valid and open.

I'm using mySQL of 000webhost, which works fine usually :O
