Is this setting of IIS work, if i am ideal for 30 min and after that if i do some action on my site. There is no tab like website tab in property of virtul directory. If you are using SQL Server to hold session data this settings will be important. Otherwise, it would be ignored. There are two types of session settings. First, Session object's timeout property.
You should set this property when a session is started. Second, application configuration. Right Click my computer choose manage. Right Click your application. Choose properties. On Directory Tab, click Configuration button.
From the options tab set session time out. Also, how could I set the timeout for above case? Session time-out is a sliding time-out that is reset for a user to the configured value each time they visit the server. The Application Idle time-out kicks in if there have been no requests to your application for that period of time. If User A were to return to the site after they would have a completely new session, and any values you've stored in there previously would be lost.
The only way to ensure that a session persists over application restarts is to configure either a SessionState service or SQL Session States, and ensure that you've configured the machine. If you're using the standard ASP. NET will will issue two cookies to each user:. Both of those cookies are encrypted using the MachineKey - so if your application recycles and generates a new key neither of those tokens can be decrypted, requiring the user to log in and create a new session.

How does the session timeout work in IIS 7? Ask Question. Asked 9 years, 8 months ago. Active 9 years, 8 months ago. Thanks you for reporting the issue.
EDIT: We have found one more issue with this. Net MVC : Which session timeout is what? Asked 3 Months ago Answers: 5 Viewed times. I've made one Asp.
What is the difference between: SessionState Timeout in web. Net Session timeout property Which one should I set if I want to have a timout of say 6 hours? Get "ASP. Equals Session. Has anybody else had this problem? If I did it any earlier in the page lifecycle, the session object is always null because it has not been setup yet. Otherwise it worked as expected and detected a timeout just fine. You can email me at robertb aspalliance.
Title: HttpModule implementation? Only one question: How it can be done with an HttpModule? I've trying for several hours now, but I can't figure out how to make it work. Write Session["A"] ; This shows how to set a named session variable in one page and use it in another page. Net session. Can you email me the code at robertb aspalliance. I am guessing you want feedback to the user that it is a particular amount of time left.
The session timeout would not provide that type of functionality. I have a site where I need to use forms authentication but on one page I need to impersonate a specific Windows users to make a connection. This works but when I go back to one of the other pages nothing works because I have lost my session state. NET is seeing the change to impersonation as a config change and restarts the application. I have tried putting that page in a subfolder and putting a web. I have also tried it without the web.
Both ways cause ASP. NET to detect a config change and restarts the application. Is there anyway that this can be made to work? I have thought about creating a web service to pull the MQ data but it seems like there should be a better way.
Title: time out the page in asp. Here i need to time out the page in particular time. The timeout mechanism should be the same for both, at which point you can use whatever role determination you use for other purposes.

Title: Re: B. Rajaram Name: Robert Boedigheimer Date: PM Comment: In general since HTTP is stateless it is not possible to know if the user is done with the site from a server perspective which is why sessions have timeout values which is where you would probably need to enforce this type of restriction because you mentioned "another system". I have seen techniques where people have added client side code that "pings" the server occassionally to let it know it was still alive people seem to use this to keep a session alive.
You could potentially use such a mechanism each minute and keep a list of who appears to be alive within a margin of error of a minute and add a check to your login to ensure they are not still considered "online".
Title: Detect browser closing through clicks on the [X] button Name: B. Rajaram Date: AM Comment: Hi, I am facing some problem with detecting browser closing through clicks on the [X] button. My requirement is to show some message when a person login into the same session while it is active in another browser or system.
Regards Rajaram email:rajphysics gamil. The problem I see is that the asp. It seems you'd get a false positive on your time out check every time you go to a new application.
When the user browses within the same DNS domain, the Web browser continues to send this cookie to the domain for which it was sourced. For example, app1. NET applications. If the user goes to app1. The applications do not share the same session state. The applications only share the session ID. Title: reset session state to default Name: andi Date: AM Comment: in my application, map data image file store in session workspace that set in webconfig file. When i run my 1stpage, there is no problem with this image, but when i run 2nd page, there is a problem with this image.
So, how to reset the image session to the very begining state before i run 1stpage , when i run the 2ndpage. Since the request that first notices the timeout has occurred might be in a popup window, the timeout code would need to return JavaScript capable of closing the appropriate windows before doing the redirect. If the popups were always in a specific relationship to each other, at least the server would know which pages would need to be closed. If not, it might be necessary to track the hieararchy in a hidden field that could be passed to the server.
I unfortunately don't have any code examples of how this would be done Assume that the session expired after the popup window has been opened. In this situation the redirect to login page will be open the login page within the popup window itself.
Just i want to close the popup window as well as the parent window should be redirected to the login page. Title: Re: Cherukuri.

Title: viewing sessions Name: Cherukuri. Venkateswarlu Date: AM Comment: how can we see session information in server Title: Re: Sippy Name: Robert Boedigheimer Date: AM Comment: Cookieless session allows session support without requiring cookies be sent to the user, it instead embeds the session id into the URL of page requests. Title: Virtual Directories and Applications Name: Robert Boedigheimer Date: PM Comment: I did some more testing based on Laurent's question about the application path for the cookie and determined that it is very important that the name of a sub-application and the path set for the cookie must be the same case.
When I created an application with "App1" but set the path using the ToLower as shown in earlier comments, the browser did not send the original session cookie and therefore restarted the session.
It is important if you have a virtual directory or subdirectory to have all links, the application name, and the cookie path match or there will be problems. Here's the code i use in session. Substring Request. ToLower End If This doesn't work NET won't hear about my "moved" cookie.
Any idea? This should be configured as well, otherwise it doesn't work. I would use the same basic logic above, and would check that if a new session was just started and the URL already contained a session id, it would be a timeout.
I am a little more concerned about the cookieless though, because if someone makes a bookmark to the site and it was included you would get a false timeout. Abandon in your logout code and they will be done. When you hit the back button in a browser by default it shows the previous page from the browser history and not by going back to the web server.

Have you tried to use tracing? It is odd that the viewstate is gone since that is part of the page It sounds to me like you might be toggling to another web server in a server farm. Is it a cluster? How is persistence handled. Title: Questions Name: JJ Date: PM Comment: The web application I am working on works fine except after the page is idled for 5 minutes or more , the page would postback as if it is being loaded and accessed for the first time, clearing the sessions and viewstates.
I checked the session property and it is set by default for 20 minutes. So I'm not sure where that 5 minutes timeframe came from.
I am wondering if this have anything to do with session timeout? Any suggestion will help. Title: Re: Jonathan Name: Robert Boedigheimer Date: AM Comment: The solution is based on the use of cookies to detect the situation where a session existed before can only really tell by the cookie and yet a new session was created.
If you can't count on cookies, you have lots of other problems because you have no way of knowing on an individual request whether that person had a session before. Using things such as IP address are difficult because of proxy servers, etc. Unfortunately, without cookies the approach I have taken simply won't work. Title: If you remove the cookies Name: Jonathan Date: PM Comment: Hi, If you test this by removing the cookies sometime during the navigation of your site which could easily happen in the real world , then the "If Not IsNothing Request.

By using this approach we have make the application easier. Thanx for that Title: Session expires in first access Name: Rodrigo - rodrigoszn gmail.
Recently here in my work we added the following code in the Global. Session expired This occurs just in some machines and not all the times we access the site. Someone knows what is happening?? When you redirect to the page to show the timeout has occurred, how do you send them back to the login page? By default, ASP. The login page redirects back by using that parameter.
If you are manually redirecting the user to the login page from your session timeout page, make sure you are not including that querystring parameter. Title: Transfer to defaul. I actually tried and changed something like you and other comments said and it works without using global. My next question is that Say after timeout, it goes to session timeout page to notify users.
After that, they go to login page. After they login, they go to session timeout page again according to FormsAuthentication. RedirectFromLoginPage of login control. I want it to go to default page if it came from session timeout page. How could I do that?
I'm appreciated for the first answer. Are they "application roots" in IIS? Can you email me some more details about your setup so I can try to reproduce this? Just add the following to the global. How do I implement the basePageSessionExpire. If not what would I do?
Say I have a default. If I understand wrong, what would I do to check session times out on the page I want or every page? Title: problem related to session state Name: Preetam jain Date: AM Comment: hello, may be you can help me..
ToLower ; I am puzzled as to why this works for others. This results in a new session for every request with everything cleared of course. Abandon clears the session cookie I thought on normal sessions it just removes the memory used for the session. Do you completely close all of the browser instances or just a specific window? I think it will probably be easier if you just want to send me an email at robertb aspalliance.
If the same user tries to log back in, it will force them to the timout page for a long time up to 15 mintues, at least. I believe it's because the index of the "ASP. So if you have two virtual directory based sites WebApp1 and WebApp2, if you visited an. If you are not in that situation, then don't include that code.
If you still need that code and want more direct assistance, just email me at robertb aspalliance. If I take it out, then it works on the 5th one. On the server that it doesn't work on, there is only one default web site, with other virtual directories in it. I can't give you a good error since my application redirects to an error page indicating that the user doesn't have permission to see the page.
The conditional code looks at a Session variable that gets first populated on the initial page. I then go to an admin page where the Session variable is checked and thats when it comes up empty and I get redirected. Any ideas why it wouldn't work on the one server? I have to think it is caused by some setting but can't verify.
I'm also a bit confused by the description of why I would need to use this - is it just for multiple web sites on the same server? You can create a file with a different name, or even take a different action for your site if that makes sense. The article is more about how to detect that a session timeout has occurred, than how to deal with it once it does which may be very site specific.
The session mechanism uses a timeout mechanism to deal with the fact that it does not know explicitly when someone is done using a particular site unless you have an explicit logoff and they choose to use it. Since you mentioned that you are using ASP. GetNumberOfUsersOnline which provides an estimate of the number currently using the site. Title: do you have a user count? Name: rod Date: AM Comment: do you have an example for showing who is currently logged in?
I got all what i need! It is cute for cookie and session users. Headers["Cookie"] to be null on the first request if you don't use any cookies yourself, the session cookie would not be present on the first request. Are you using cookieless sessions? Is this at least the 2nd request? Title: Request. Headers["Cookie"] as null. Please suggest me what to do for this. NET 1. I requested a page, then waited for a timeout, hit a button on the page which caused a postback and the timeout detection code to run and redirect the user.
If I immediately type an address for a page on the site, it works without saying it timed out. The reason that it does this is because the request made that checked the timeout created a new session, and on the subsequent requests the IsNewSession will not be true. A quick suggestion would be to set a session variable in your login page to ensure it creates a new session and that the next request won't see IsNewSession as true. Title: Question Name: bob Date: PM Comment: How can I modify this code so that when the session expires a user and login from the redirected page.
I have it currently redirecting to a log in page but it will not let the user log in because it still finds the expired session. All is well if I close the browser and log in again Is the timeout you are setting for the Forms Authentiction or the session timeout?
Do you run in a web farm and are possibly changing physical servers? I am not aware of a setting that allows you to programmatically enable session from within page code I believe the session support is in an HttpModule that runs before the handler for the page.
