    <p>I have a problem with my MVC 4 application which used to work fine, but stopped for some reason, and I cannot find out why. I use simple memebrship provider and code first approach. This is my Index action method in the home controller</p> <pre><code>[Authorize] public class HomeController : Controller { private IActivityRepository repo; public HomeController(IActivityRepository activityRepository) { repo = activityRepository; } //Allow anonymous to allow to create database if there isn't one yet [AllowAnonymous] public ActionResult Index() { repo.InitializeDatabase(); //!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!! return RedirectToAction("ManageActivities"); } </code></pre> <p>The whole concept of mine is that if database doesn't exist it gets created in InitializeDatabase Method. Then user is redirected to ManageActivities action method which is decorated with [Authorize] attribute, what in effect takes user to login action method in AccountCotroller (out of the box in MVC4). This controller is decorated with [InitializeSimpleMembership], what fires InitializeSimpleMembershipAttribute filter. </p> <p>This logic worked fine for me a while ago. Today I wanted to create a new database for testing purposes. When I create data context I call the base class with a custom name for the database like so:</p> <pre><code>public class ActivityLogContext : DbContext { public ActivityLogContext() : base("ActivitiesConnection") { } </code></pre> <p>So I've changed details for my connection string and run the application. Unfortunatelly, for some reason the code hits InitializeSimpleMemebership filter before running Index method from the home controller (even though its decorated with [AllowAnonymous]). In effect simple membership is initialized but database does not yet exist, what runs me into error.</p> <p>My question is, why InitializeSimpleMemebership filter is getting released on application start if Index method doesn't require authorization?</p>

A row detail

Detail views are divided into sections. All the information in the data section comes from columns in the selected row. The other sections display data from other, related rows.

Related data can be related in a to-one or a to-many fashion. Captions of data related in a to-many fashion link to a list view showing a filtered view of the table.

Try moving around until you find a non-empty to-many entry and click on the label to get to one. You can move back to the root by clicking on the database name in the header.

If you are curious you may find further information in the browser console, which is accessible through the devtools (F12).
