To reset the distributed cache related to permissions (or any ABP module) after updating permission grants in the database, you need to clear the relevant cache entries. ABP caches permission grants for performance, especially when using Redis as a distributed cache. If you update permissions directly in the database (e.g., via repository), the cache will not be automatically invalidated, and users may not see updated permissions until the cache expires or is cleared.

For the permission system, you should clear the permission grant cache for the affected user/tenant. There is no built-in ABP API to clear only one module's cache, but you can use the IDistributedCache interface to remove specific cache keys.

Example: Clear permission grant cache for a user

using Volo.Abp.Caching;
using Volo.Abp.Authorization.Permissions;
using Microsoft.Extensions.Caching.Distributed;

// Inject IDistributedCache<PermissionGrantCacheItem>
private readonly IDistributedCache<PermissionGrantCacheItem> _permissionGrantCache;

public async Task ClearPermissionGrantCacheAsync(string providerName, string providerKey, string permissionName, Guid? tenantId)
{
    var cacheKey = PermissionGrantCacheItem.CalculateCacheKey(permissionName, providerName, providerKey, tenantId);
    await _permissionGrantCache.RemoveAsync(cacheKey);
}

• providerName: "U" for user, "R" for role
• providerKey: userId.ToString() or roleName
• permissionName: the permission name
• tenantId: the tenant's ID

Call this method after you update the permission grants in the database.

For other modules, you can use the same approach: identify the cache key and remove it using IDistributedCache.

Note: If you want to clear all permission grants cache, you may need to clear all related keys in Redis, but this is not recommended in production unless necessary.

• The error Could not find file '~/Abp/ApplicationLocalizationScript?cultureName=en' during deployment to Azure is typically caused by missing or misconfigured static files, or by the bundling/minification process not including dynamic endpoints like /Abp/ApplicationLocalizationScript.

• In ABP, /Abp/ApplicationLocalizationScript is a dynamic endpoint, not a physical file. If your deployment or bundling configuration tries to treat it as a static file, it will fail.

How to Fix:

1. Check Bundling Configuration:

   • Ensure you are not adding /Abp/ApplicationLocalizationScript as a static file in your bundle configuration. It should not be included in any AddFiles or similar methods for static bundling.

2. Update Your Layouts:

   • In your Razor layout files (e.g., _Layout.cshtml), use the ABP-provided tag helpers or script includes for localization, not a static file reference.

   Example:

<script src="~/Abp/ApplicationLocalizationScript?cultureName=@CultureInfo.CurrentUICulture.Name"></script>

Do not add this path to any static bundle.

3. Azure Deployment:

   • Make sure your deployment process does not remove or block dynamic endpoints under /Abp/.
   • If you use Azure App Service, ensure that all required runtime files are published and that your web.config (if present) does not rewrite or block /Abp/* routes.

4. Clear Bundling Cache:

   • If you have previously bundled this path as a static file, clear your bundling output and cache, then redeploy.

5. Check for Customizations:

   • If you have customized the ABP theme or layout, review those changes to ensure you are not referencing /Abp/ApplicationLocalizationScript in a way that expects it to be a static file.

Summary:
Remove /Abp/ApplicationLocalizationScript from any static bundle configuration. Reference it only as a dynamic script in your layout. Redeploy after clearing any old bundle outputs.

• The impersonation ("Login with this tenant") and return icon issues in ABP Blazor WebApp (v9.3, LeptonX, non-tiered, multi-tenancy) are known and have been reported by other users. The problems include:

  • The impersonation menu option is inconsistently visible.
  • When impersonation works, a NullReferenceException is thrown (see stack trace), but after a refresh, the impersonation session appears to work temporarily.
  • The "return" icon for ending impersonation disappears after a short time.

• These issues are not present in Blazor Server starter templates, only in Blazor WebApp projects generated by ABP Suite.

• The root cause is related to the ABP Unit of Work and transaction behavior in the Blazor WebApp template, especially after package upgrades (9.2 → 9.3). The impersonation state is not reliably maintained, and the UI does not always reflect the correct session.

Recommended Actions:

1. Ensure all ABP and module packages are updated to the latest compatible versions (including LeptonX and SaaS modules).
2. Clean and rebuild the solution after upgrading packages.
3. If the problem persists, this is a framework-level issue. You should report it (if not already) or follow the official support thread for updates:
   • ABP Support: Blazor Web App Impersonation Issue

Workaround:

• As a temporary measure, use the Blazor Server template if impersonation is critical for your workflow, as it does not exhibit these issues.

• The error NG01203: No value accessor for form control name: 'authorId' in your ABP Suite-generated Angular UI typically means the form control is not bound to a compatible Angular Material component (like <mat-select>) or the necessary module is not imported.

• In a one-to-many navigation (e.g., Book → Author), ABP Suite should generate a dropdown for selecting the related entity (Author) in both the create/edit form and the advanced filter. If this is missing, it is usually due to:

  1. The <mat-select> component is not used for the authorId field.
  2. The MatSelectModule is not imported in your feature or shared module.
  3. The lookup data for authors is not loaded or bound to the dropdown.

How to Fix:

1. Ensure <mat-select> is used for authorId:

<mat-form-field>
     <mat-label>Author</mat-label>
     <mat-select formControlName="authorId" required>
       <mat-option *ngFor="let author of authors" [value]="author.id">
         {{ author.name }}
       </mat-option>
     </mat-select>
   </mat-form-field>

2. Import MatSelectModule in your module:

import { MatSelectModule } from '@angular/material/select';

   @NgModule({
     imports: [
       // ... other imports
       MatSelectModule
     ]
   })
   export class SharedModule { }

3. Load and bind the authors list: In your component:

authors: AuthorDto[] = [];

   ngOnInit() {
     this.authorService.getList().subscribe(result => {
       this.authors = result.items;
     });
   }

4. Advanced Filter Dropdown: Similarly, use <mat-select> for the filter and bind the authors list.

5. Regenerate Code if Needed: If the ABP Suite did not generate the dropdown, you may need to re-add the navigation property and regenerate, ensuring you select the correct display and filter options.

This approach aligns with common ABP conventions for one-to-many navigation properties in Angular UI.

To resolve the issue with missing AI library static assets (such as dompurify) in a module-based ABP application, especially when the AI chat page is in a submodule, follow these steps:

1. Ensure the required JS libraries (e.g., dompurify, marked, etc.) are present in your project:

   • Place the necessary files (like /ai-libs/dompurify/dist/purify.es.mjs) in the wwwroot/ai-libs directory of the module or the main web project.
   • If your submodule is a class library, ensure it has a wwwroot folder and that the files are marked as "Content" and "Copy if newer" in the .csproj.

2. Serve static files from the submodule:

   • In your submodule's module class, add the following configuration to ensure embedded/static files are served:

Configure<AbpVirtualFileSystemOptions>(options =>
   {
       options.FileSets.AddEmbedded<YourSubmoduleName>();
   });

   Configure<AbpAspNetCoreStaticFilesOptions>(options =>
   {
       options.FileSets.AddEmbedded<YourSubmoduleName>();
   });

Replace YourSubmoduleName with the actual module class.

3. If using embedded resources, ensure the files are embedded:
   • In your .csproj:

<ItemGroup>
       <EmbeddedResource Include="wwwroot\**" />
     </ItemGroup>

4. If using physical files, ensure the StaticFiles middleware is enabled in your main app's Startup or Program:

app.UseStaticFiles();

5. Reference the static assets correctly in your page/component:

   • Use /ai-libs/dompurify/dist/purify.es.mjs as the path if the files are in the main web project's wwwroot.
   • If served from a module, the path may be /Your.Module.Name/ai-libs/dompurify/dist/purify.es.mjs.

6. Publish and verify:

   • After publishing, check that the files are present in the output directory and accessible via the expected URLs.

This approach ensures that static assets required by the AI chat template are available at runtime, regardless of whether the page is in the main app or a submodule.

In an ABP microservice solution, if your API-only microservice does not have its own database, you do NOT need to create a DbContext or related migration classes for permission seeding. Instead, permissions for all microservices are managed centrally—typically in the IdentityService or AdministrationService, which are responsible for permission management and persistence.

To ensure your microservice's permissions are persisted to the central Administration database:

1. Reference your microservice's Application.Contracts project from the IdentityService (or the service responsible for permission management). This allows the central service to discover and register your permission definitions.
2. Rebuild the solution and restart the IdentityService and AdministrationService. This ensures the new permissions are loaded and can be seeded.
3. Run the DbMigrator (if present) or ensure the central service seeds the permissions. Your microservice does not need to seed or persist permissions itself if it has no database.

You do NOT need to implement a DbContext, DbContextFactory, or migration event handlers in your API-only microservice. The permission seeding logic you wrote is not required in the microservice itself; it should be handled by the central service.

Summary:

• No database = no DbContext or migration code needed in the microservice.
• Add Application.Contracts reference to IdentityService.
• Rebuild and restart all services.
• Central service will persist permissions to the Administration database.

To create a project with a specified .NET (and ABP) version in ABP Studio, you cannot directly select the .NET version from the ABP Studio GUI. ABP Studio uses a version mapping system, where each Studio version is mapped to a specific ABP template version, which in turn targets a specific .NET version.

If you want to create a project targeting a specific .NET version (for example, .NET 8), you need to:

1. Install the corresponding version of the ABP Studio CLI that generates the template for your desired .NET/ABP version. You can find the version mappings here:

   • https://abp.io/docs/latest/studio/version-mapping

2. Use the CLI to generate the project. For example, to generate a project with ABP 8.3.4 (which targets .NET 8), install the matching CLI version and run:

dotnet tool install -g Volo.Abp.Studio.Cli --version 0.9.8
   abp new MyProject

3. After generating the project, you can open and manage it in the latest ABP Studio.

Note: The ABP Studio GUI always uses the template version mapped to its own version, so for custom .NET versions, the CLI approach is required.

• To handle network failures during ABP module initialization in a MAUI Blazor Hybrid app (especially on Samsung devices with aggressive battery optimization), you should implement a more resilient initialization and error handling strategy. The ABP initialization process expects a successful remote configuration fetch; if the network is unavailable (as with Samsung's battery optimization), it will throw an exception and show a white screen.

• Here are recommended approaches:

1. Graceful Network Failure Handling

   • Wrap the ABP initialization (especially the call to MauiBlazorCachedApplicationConfigurationClient.InitializeAsync()) in a try-catch block.
   • If a network error occurs, display a user-friendly message or a retry button, rather than allowing the app to crash or hang on a white screen.
   • Optionally, implement a retry/backoff policy using Polly, but ensure you do not block the UI thread or create an infinite loop.

2. Defer or Skip Configuration Refresh

   • On app resume, check for network connectivity before attempting to refresh the configuration.
   • If the network is unavailable, skip the refresh and allow the app to use cached configuration, if available.
   • You can use Xamarin.Essentials/MAUI Essentials Connectivity.NetworkAccess to check network status.

   Example:

if (Connectivity.NetworkAccess == NetworkAccess.Internet)
   {
       await MauiBlazorCachedApplicationConfigurationClient.InitializeAsync();
   }
   else
   {
       // Show offline message or use cached data
   }

3. Custom Error UI

   • Implement a fallback UI for initialization errors. For example, show a dialog with "Retry" and "Exit" options if initialization fails due to network issues.

4. Samsung Battery Optimization Guidance

   • Inform users about battery optimization issues and provide instructions to whitelist your app in Samsung's battery settings.
   • You can direct users to: Settings > Apps > [Your App] > Battery > Unrestricted.

5. Avoid Using "localhost" in Production

   • The error Unable to resolve host "localhost" suggests the app is trying to connect to a local server, which will not work on a physical device. Ensure your RemoteService:BaseUrl and OIDC Authority point to a reachable server, not localhost.

6. Polly Integration

   • ABP supports Polly for retry logic on HTTP client proxies. However, this does not help if the network is completely unavailable or if the device is blocking all requests. Use Polly for transient errors, but always check for connectivity first.

   Reference: ABP Polly Integration

7. Session Persistence

   • Ensure your authentication/session tokens are persisted securely so that the user does not need to re-login after a failed resume.

By combining these strategies, you can provide a much better user experience and avoid white screens or crashes due to Samsung's battery optimization.

To implement a privacy-focused, tenant-aware registration and login flow in ABP Framework (v9.3, MVC, non-tiered), you can use the following approach:

Registration:

• Do not expose the tenant list on the registration page.
• Generate tenant-specific registration links (e.g., https://yourapp.com/account/register?tenant=tenant-identifier) and send them to users via email or other secure channels.
• On the registration page, extract the tenant identifier from the query string and set the current tenant context accordingly. This ensures the user is registered under the correct tenant without exposing tenant information publicly.

Login:

• On the login page, do not display a tenant selector.
• When a user submits their credentials, implement a custom login logic that:
  1. Iterates through all tenants.
  2. For each tenant, switches the tenant context and attempts to find a user with the provided email/username.
  3. If a user is found, validate the password.
  4. If the credentials are valid for only one tenant, log the user in under that tenant.
  5. If the credentials are valid for multiple tenants, prompt the user to select which tenant to log into (e.g., show a list of tenant names or masked identifiers).
  6. If no match is found, return a generic login failure message.

Implementation Example (Custom LoginModel):

public class CustomLoginModel : LoginModel
{
    private readonly ITenantRepository _tenantRepository;

    public CustomLoginModel(
        IAuthenticationSchemeProvider schemeProvider,
        IOptions<AbpAccountOptions> accountOptions,
        IOptions<IdentityOptions> identityOptions,
        ITenantRepository tenantRepository,
        IdentityDynamicClaimsPrincipalContributorCache contributorCache)
        : base(schemeProvider, accountOptions, identityOptions, contributorCache)
    {
        _tenantRepository = tenantRepository;
    }

    public override async Task<IActionResult> OnPostAsync(string action)
    {
        var matchingTenants = new List<(Guid? TenantId, IdentityUser User)>();

        foreach (var tenant in await _tenantRepository.GetListAsync())
        {
            using (CurrentTenant.Change(tenant.Id))
            {
                var user = await UserManager.FindByNameAsync(LoginInput.UserNameOrEmailAddress) ??
                           await UserManager.FindByEmailAsync(LoginInput.UserNameOrEmailAddress);

                if (user != null && await UserManager.CheckPasswordAsync(user, LoginInput.Password))
                {
                    matchingTenants.Add((tenant.Id, user));
                }
            }
        }

        if (matchingTenants.Count == 1)
        {
            using (CurrentTenant.Change(matchingTenants[0].TenantId))
            {
                return await base.OnPostAsync(action);
            }
        }
        else if (matchingTenants.Count > 1)
        {
            // Prompt user to select tenant (implement UI to show options)
            // Store matchingTenants in TempData or session for next step
            // Redirect to a tenant selection page
            return RedirectToPage("./SelectTenant", new { /* pass necessary info */ });
        }

        // No match found
        ModelState.AddModelError(string.Empty, "Invalid login attempt.");
        return Page();
    }
}

Notes:

• For registration, ensure the tenant context is set before creating the user.
• For login, you may want to cache tenant-user lookups for performance if you have many tenants.
• If you allow the same email in multiple tenants, always prompt for tenant selection on ambiguous matches.

• Google reCAPTCHA v3 scores can be lower in local development environments, even if "localhost" is added to the allowed domains. This is a known behavior and is not specific to ABP. Google’s scoring algorithm may treat local traffic as less trustworthy, especially if requests are automated or lack real user interaction.

• In production, real user activity and proper domain validation typically result in higher scores. For local development, you can consider lowering the score threshold in your ABP reCAPTCHA configuration to allow testing, but be sure to restore the recommended threshold for production.

• To adjust the threshold in ABP, set the AbpReCaptchaOptions.ScoreThreshold to a lower value in your development environment:

Configure<AbpReCaptchaOptions>(options =>
  {
      options.ScoreThreshold = 0.1f; // Lower for local testing
  });

• Always use your actual site key and secret, and ensure you are not using test keys in production.
