Architecture :: How To Save The Current Location Of Each Logged-in User

Jan 26, 2010

Let me tell you what I need to implement on my company .NET application and I will be more than glad to hear your advise how to do it:

For every user loged-in to the company website, We want to know on which page he is right now. It means, If user X is now on page "1.html", I need to save this information somewhere. If user X after 30-60 seconds going to page "2.html" I want to update it fast where he is now surfing. It means I want to be able to tell at REAL TIME, on each page, Which users are right now observing the page. This is the problem, now I'm looking for the right solution.

If some day my company website will have 400,000 user log-in at the same time, I am going to save to every one of them where he is surfing right now. Maybe I exaggerated, but we do have 45,000 users at the same time on the company web site and the number is growing. I think big so the solution for this problem will be good for a lot of users.

So, my data object for every user should keep this information somewhere:

1. User code (User Number).
2. Which page user is now observing (Page Number).

This object is going to update every 30-60 seconds by using AJAX, so it should be updated fast. It is a lot of reading/writing data. If a user want to see which other users are now on the same page as he his, he will be able to see it, just by going through the whole array of objects.

I don't need this information to be saved in DB, because it doesn't mean anything. It is temporary and changing A LOT. So, I think the right place to do it is using RAM at the the company server, using the Caching Data option. What do you think? Am I wrong?

If I am going to have a data table with lots of records and every record is going to be update every 30-60 seconds. Where should I save all this table data? I am using SQL Server 2008 to save important data as needed, but this data is not important to save, just need to use it for my purpose. Where should I save this data? I think saving it in DB is a bad idea, because of the dynamic update of records every few seconds. I am thinking about 100,000 users who update this table every few seconds. It probably going to kill my DB, so DB is not an option.

What is the right way to implement this kind of thing?

You may think of it like every page is "a chat room" and I want to know who enter now the room (the page), it doesn't have to be completely accurate in time, but approximately.

Web Forms :: How To Get The Current Logged In User's Email Address

How to retrieve the current authenticated logged in user's email address who is accessing the page.

I have managed to do it with users. How to get the current authenticated user's email address if that makes sense.

Here is my aspx code:

[Code]....

and my VB script:

Somebody suggested that I should run a query. If you know the user name accessing the page, surely you can take that information, insert it into a query to find out the email address of the user accessing the page. Sounds great but don't have a clue how to do it.

Web Forms :: Authenticate Current Logged In User In Asp 3.5 - Error CS1061

Jan 26, 2010

I want to check that the user trying to log-in is authenticated and it belongs to a certain role. For this I have wrote the following code

protected void btnLoginButton_Click(object sender, EventArgs e)
{
/
if (this.User.Identity.IsAuthenticated && this.User.IsInRole("Admin"))
{
Response.Redirect("~/Admin/Default.aspx");
}
if (this.User.Identity.IsAuthenticated && this.User.IsInRole("Editor"))
{
Response.Redirect("~/Editor/Default.aspx");
}
if (this.User.Identity.IsAuthenticated && this.User.IsInRole("Moderator"))
{
Response.Redirect("~/Moderator/Default.aspx");
}
}

But when I ran this code it gave me this error error CS1061: 'Page' does not contain a definition for 'User' and no extension method 'User' accepting a first argument of type 'Page' could be found (are you missing a using directive or an assembly reference?) I have already added following directives to cs page-

using System;
using System.Data;
using System.Configuration;
using System.Collections;
using System.Web;
using System.Web.Security;
using System.Web.UI;
using System.Web.UI.WebControls;
using System.Web.UI.WebControls.WebParts;
using System.Web.UI.HtmlControls;

Can anybody tell what directie I should add for "this.User" <P.S> My application is web based and it is in ASP.Net 3.5(C#).

Web Forms :: Display Online Users Except Current Logged In User In Membership

I have below code to display "list of all the online users" inside listBox using Membership function.

How To Get Current Logged In UserID In Aspnet Mvc Membership

May 7, 2010

i am trying to show a list of users of my application "school", when admin logs in then he can view all the users in list but when school principals logins, he should get only users of his school, So i thought to get the current loggedIn userId first and then by that userId i'll get schoolId since userId is foreign key in school table...once i'll get the schoolId i can show the members of that school.

But my problem is how to get the UserID of currently loggedIn. I'm using MVC 1.0 Asp.Net -- "Membership" if my logic above is wrong then tell me the alternate good idea, so that principal can see only his users list.

C# - How To Get The Physical Location Of Web Application Without Using HttpContext.Current

Jun 11, 2010

I've found myself having a requirement to configure log4net based on a file relative to the physical location of the running ASP.NET web application. We like to start the logger as early as possible, so Application_Start seems a proper place. In IIS6, this works fine and has been running for ages, but now we moved to IIS7 and this won't work anymore:

string absolutePath = HttpContext.Current.Request.PhysicalApplicationPath;

because the HttpContext.Current is not available in many global.asax (Application, Session) events. This is old news, we all know it raises the now infamous Request is not available in this context error. We don't want to move back to Classic Mode.

Now, the question is simple: without using HttpContext, is it possible to find the physical location of the currently running web application instance?

Web Forms :: Open New Window And Redirect Current Location

Oct 26, 2010

I have a page that creates a pdf and opens the pdf. I use response.write with javascript using window.open to make the window open with the pdf, works fine. I then want the main window to do a redirect to a message page. But soon as I add code to do that (either more javascript using location.href or response.redirect, it does that but the window.open no longer works. It's like it's running the redirect before it really has a chance to finish the window.open. Is there a better way (a way that works LOL) to accomplish this?

State Management :: Users Getting Logged Out Because HttpContext.Current Is Null?

Aug 19, 2010

We've got a fairly large, complex web application that uses Forms Authentication to authenticate users. Throughout the application we store and retrieve information about users in the Session object, and in some cases in cookies. In a couple places we check for the existence of the context, and if it's null we send the user back to the login page to re-establish the session. Just a quick run-down of this web app: C#, .NET 3.5, IIS 6, ASP.NET State Service to manage sessionAs for the session timer, we use our own home-grown timer, which is basically a client-side timer, which is backed up by a check to the SQL database to see when their last activity was. This seems to work well for us. It's not perfect, but it allows us to notify the user before the session times out, and allows us to be certain we're not logging a user out before their 60 minutes of inactivity is up.What's happening is that certain users are being logged out after just a few minutes. We've eliminated the timer as a cause and believe what's happening is the HttpContext.Current is null, so the user is logged out. We do not know why the HttpContext.Current is null, and I understand there are many reasons that may occur. What I'm trying to figure out is, is there any way to re-establish the context once it is null? If not, is there anything I can do at this point other than have the user login again? We're also trying to figure out a better way of managing user information (preferences, roles, flags, history, etc), but everything needs context to use, right? Cookies, sessions, cache, etc. all require a response or request, correct? hope this makes sense, because I really need help with this. I've searched the forums here, and found many posts about HttpContext.Current going null, but not a lot of solutions for this...
