I'm load testing an asp.net app.The load test is simulating 500 user doing searchs on the site and browsing the results. I'm observing that the more I reduce the session timeout limit (in web.config) the better the page response time.exemple, with a timeout at 10 minutes, I got an average response time of 8.35 seconds.
With a timout at 3 minutes, the average response time for the same page is 3,98 seconds.The session in stored "InProc".
I would like to pop up a box that warns the user of session timing out in 5 minutes. There are lots of examples of this on the net and I can figure something out. My question however is how to get the time remaining.All examples I read about set a client side timer to countdown from last postback. I would like to do something different. I would like to make an AJAX call to the server and get the time remaining from the server. Is this possible?Since an AJAX call will not reset the session timeout timer can I read the number and send it back to the client?

I Set session timeout I wnt to show the remaining session timeout on the page and show in the format seconds i.e. 7.45min remaining
We have the timeout value set to 120 in our <form> tag within the web.config. We do not have a session timeout set.. and we have various connection strings.
We are having a problem where a session variable will disappear (become NULL) .. but, the form evidently remains 'open'.. or no re-login is required..... so, my question(s):
1. what is the relationship between form timeout and session timeout
2. how do I set session timeout
I wanna write a method to get or set session timeout at run time.
View 1 RepliesI have a site that when a user logs in it sets their initials into a session variable and sets the timeout value like so:
[Code]....
I want the user to be logged in for 3 hours. This does not work, the session expires after a short period of time, maybe 20 minutes. What do I need to change to make this page level validation work?I have tried setting in web.config also, but this doesn't work either.
<sessionState mode="InProc" cookieless="true" timeout="180" />
We have a asp.net application where users will apply for jobs online. When users fill out the form the page isn't timing out the session. If a user goes back to the main page the last user's information is still available.
I have setup many websites and have never had to make any changes on IIS, under the configuration within the website. The default is 20 minutes we can change it to 8 or 10, but I think this issue should be taken care of in the code. The setting will affect the entire site instead of the pages that need to timeout.
What is the best way to do this within the code?
The session state timeout is set using this web.config element
<sessionState mode="InProc" cookieless="false" timeout="120" />
The forms auth is configured using this web.config element
<system.web>
<authentication mode="Forms">
<forms loginUrl="Login.aspx"
protection="All"
timeout="30"
name=".ASPXAUTH"
path="/"
requireSSL="false"
slidingExpiration="true"
defaultUrl="default.aspx"
cookieless="UseDeviceProfile"
enableCrossAppRedirects="false" />
</authentication>
</system.web>
What is the difference between the timeouts specified in each of these elements? If both are different, how would it work?
I have a button that executes a script using AJAX.Normally when a session is still active the script will return some data that will be placed inside the parent page.If the session expired the AJAX will return the login screen which gets placed inside the parent page which looks really odd.How would I be able to detect a session timeout and do a postback on the parent page?

How can I remove or Dispose a session once user navigate from one page to other.

View 9 RepliesI have a page of each every click has ajax call to my server (hence, the ASP extends the session)
I have ASP.NET session set to Xmin. I want when X+1 min expires, I have expiration page. what I did was to set the JS timer to validate every x+1min to see if the session expired (the problem is that the JS and the ASP session timeouts are not synced)
I want to redirect to login page,when session is timedout. Here is the link i am following [URL] ...
For example: If i am in the page called http://localhost/RealWebApp/Dashboard/RealProfile.aspx
when session is timed out, this page is showing like http://localhost/RealWebApp/Dashboard/logout.aspx
But i wanted to be like : http://localhost/RealWebApp/logout.aspx
If I use like this in master page:
meta.Content = Convert.ToString(Session.Timeout * 60) + ";url=../LogOut.aspx";
then it is redirecting to http://localhost/Logout.aspx
But i wanted to be like : http://localhost/RealWebApp/logout.aspx
How to accomplish this:
protected void Page_Load(object sender, EventArgs e) {
HtmlMeta meta = new HtmlMeta();
meta.HttpEquiv = "Refresh";
meta.Content = Convert.ToString(Session.Timeout * 60) + ";url=LogOut.aspx";
this.Page.Header.Controls.Add(meta);
}

View 1 RepliesI have noticed two time-related problems with my website:
[1] Slowness of loading the graphics for each page in the browser;
[2] Receiving a "Runtime Error" page in the browser when I do take action on the site (e.g. navigate to another page) within approx. 30 seconds.
Are these problems related to limitations of my web host?
commonly on say PHP or other web frameworks getting the total response time is easy, just start the timer at the top of the file and stop it at the end. In ASP.Net there is the whole Page Lifecycle bit though so I'm not sure how to do this. I would like for this response time recording to take place in a master page and the response time show up in the footer of pages. What would be the best way of doing this? Is there something built in to ASP.Net for it? Is it even possible to include the OnRender time?

View 2 RepliesI created a user control for my web application that checks for Session Timeout. If the criteria are met for Timeout, I use Response.Redirect to send the user back to the login page. I include this user control in my Master page, and run the SessionTimeoutcode in the user control's Page_Init event. That all works great. However, once the user logs in again after time-out (and I have verified that the OnLoggedIn event does fire) the user is redirected to the DestinationPageUrl. That page runs the Session Timeout check when it loads (as it should) and the Session Timeout code "says" that the session is still timed-out.
View 1 RepliesI'm working to set up/correct my session timeout code, and have consulted numerous articles like this one and this SO post for ideas on how best to do this. The solution to detecting a session timeout that I continue to see over and over is to first check the Session.IsNewSession property for true, and if so, then check to see if a session cookie already exists. I guess the logic here is that the user has ended their last session that timed out, started a new session, but the old cookie wasn't yet removed. The code for those checks looks like this:
[CODE]...
The problem is that the session does not end, and all of my session timeout checks are in the Home/Customer action (I use MVC). So I'm redirected to Home/Customer, and I run through the checks above, but when I get to Session.IsNewSession, it's false, because the session is still alive (I assume because I'm still within the 120 minutes I have set)
I want some efficient way that how can i display a message to user that he is about to logout after 1 minute if user is idle and doing nothing on the page for 1 mintue.
on message if user want stay online so he must click keep me online or say logout.
I have an webforms app that loses it's session variables on response.redirect. I've read Bertrand Le Roy's blog about this and still can't get it to work. The page works in production. However, when I try in the VS2k8 IDE, the session variables are there right before response.redirect and on the first line of the next page, the variables are nothing. I've confirmed the session id is the same so I'm not skipping sessions. The target page is relative so the web server doesn't think we're changing sites (as confirmed by the sessionid).
Response.Redirect("menu.aspx", False)
In our application we are using forms authentication, we have given defaulturl also in the config file. But the problem is that it is not getting redirected to the default url when the session timeout is occuring.
View 2 RepliesI need to make my asp.net session cookie as secure but whenever i check user authentication and after that i am trying to set cookie to true then my session lost my user information and so it always redirect login page. I am settings user to HttpContext.Current.Session["user"] and check every time, is user is valid and if valid then move ahead. but before that i make my asp.net session cookie as true.
[Code]....
but after that i observe that somehow "Session_Start" event gets called.
on page refresh it redirects to login page. why?
