Question

Has anyone had a problem with this. He throws me the error: Name can not be null or empty. But in the table do not have the attribute called \"Name\". I want to customize Asp.Ne

Answer 1

Solved (for me at least) By REMOVING the UserName property from the customized identity (its in the GitHub ASPNetIdentitySample project which is where I guess people are getting it from). Its hiding the UserName property in IdentityUser

Answer 2
