State Management :: SessionState Timeout Vs. Httpruntime ExecutionTimeout?
Jun 30, 2010
what the difference between
SessionState Timeout
and
HttpRuntime ExecutionTimeout
is? Both in web.config. I want to increase or reduce the timeout in my webapplication. Means: If a users idles more than 10 min. the should get timed out.
I'm working on Windows 2008R2 with IIS 7.5. In web.config there is config value:
[Code]....
Now, web request calls WCF service, which is very time consuming (timeouts for WCF are set to 5minutes). Whilst waiting for WCF to finish, web application throws exception:
[Code]....
As far as I make it out, it's exception caused by exceeding 90seconds limit. But... I get that exception after about 150seconds. Is it common that request doesn't break instantaneously?
I did some tests: - set executionTimeout to 90seconds - set WCF timeout to 500seconds - play with Thread.Sleep in WCF service, and pass it a value between 90seconds and 500seconds.
It turned out that I got that
[Code]....
exception exactly after the time passed to Thread.Sleep method. Conclusion: web request thread has to wait for wcf call to return in order to be aborted?
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
I have a problem regarding the SessionState Collection.I retrieve an object
[Code]....
I thought that i access a reference type. But calling the default constructor to build a new object seems not to work.The next time I access the object I still get the old one.
From my understanding, the asp.net 1.1 application will login the user then store the information to a session and a cookie? I'm trying to access that cookie with a asp.net 2.0 application. Is this possible?
I'm thinking the mode would need to change to maybe StateServer or Sql.
My servers are behind F5 load balancer, I wanna use HttpRuntime.Cache in my web application but I didn't find out the way for to use that method for those using network load balancing server. Or can we store that HttpRuntime.Cache to sql server like the session we do in web.config file?
My session variables don't get saved if the SessionState mode in the web.config file is set to StateServer. But when I changed it to InProc, then everything is fine and good. I'm trying to save a custom built object (or class) into the session after the user logs in.
I am performing my first steps with ASP.NET for my employment.Yesterday I tried to perform saving a value to a sessionstate variable, but it does not work.I am using C# and want to code in .NET 3.5. [Code]....
The click performs a postback to a second website where the value is to be displayed on a simple label.The value I initialized in the Global.asax is saved to the variable and then read on the second page, but I cannot manipulate it using the textbox and the button on the first page. I just don't get it...I even tried on different machines and different VS editions.
I'm building a site using the .NET 4 framework using routing and MasterPages.
Because I'm using both routing and MasterPages, I can't see any way how to get value from control on the previous page. To solve this I've used the code behind to store the control's value in a session variable. Is there a way to retrieve a value from a control using PreviousPage or something when using Routing and MasterPages?
This works fine in VWD debug mode and in IIS 5.1, but when I try to deploy it on my Windows Server 2008 (IIS7.5) machine, it get this error:
Session state can only be used when enableSessionState is set to true, either in a configuration file or in the Page directive. also make sure that System.Web.SessionStateModule or a custom session state module is included in the <configuration><system.web><httpModules> section in the application configuration.
I have an issue to where my users are logged into my system but thier session is null so when they try to do something in the system after 20 minutes, i get null reference expceptions because my session is gon What is the best practice for handleing the session, should i kick the users out before thier session ends and when they log back in thier session will return or atleast a new one will be created right? How should I handle this?
I am building a web app that is limited to one database, therefore I cannot use the ASP.NET config tool. As a quick means of getting this app online, I tried to use a simple session variable. The login page verifies the user's credentials, and if they pass, it sets the session variable to a certain value. All other pages check in the page_load event whether or not the session variable is equal to that value. The problem is that once being logged in for a short while and sending and recieving some data, the session variable resets, and I'm returned to the login page to repeat the process. Here's the basic code from my webforms:
[code]....
Is there some setting I need to change in the web.config file to adjust the cookie timeout or is that only for the config tool authentication methods?
I have created an ASP.NET Intranet Application in framework 2.0.
I have deployed this application on my Local Intranet Server and client are accessing the application in thier browsers. What is happening is that i have set session timeout value to 90 mins but it still move to redirect page after 5 or 6 mins inactivity.
My requirement is whenever a user logged in the application, the application should never go on the login page back, bu when user clicks log out button then it should redirect on login page.
I have a section in my web app that displays the user's name, the current datetime and a logout link. What i would also like to display is the time left for the session.Is this possible? I'm using an ajax timer to give the user the real time, so if i could display also the time that is left for the session to end would be great.
But my Website has one thing that still causing problems... the Website calls an ActiveX. Some time in the user navigation the user clicks in a button and a JavaScript loads an ActiveX with the code bellow.
var objDownload = new ActiveXObject('XXXXXX'); objDownload.ActiveXMethod();
This ActiveX makes a huge processing and this is why I'm want the trick to avoid the session expires. I tested the both above solutions but when the ActiveX is running no refresh happens. Can anyone help with this problem? How the ActiveX can be running and the IE makes the refresh?
i have my website uploaded on production server . i have stored datatable for around 70 rows and 20 columns in session but with still only with 10 users.but my server in getting timeout too often.my server ram is 4gb and is dedicated server.i am currently using inproc session only.How much data can we store in session in current scenario. or i need to change my apparoch. in future my website is expand with many users .
How can I redirect the user to the first page when they've been idle for more than 20 minutes or so?Here's my session timeout time in my web config file:
now i need to test on a website, which i able to login to the main website and some of the sub-website or sub page. but when i click on 1 of the link to link to the page. it always show me Timeout expired.
I already try to restart the IIS admin service and make sure my database is up and connected.
now i test on my development server. so the website i browse is at localhost.
Timeout expired. The timeout period elapsed prior to completion of the operation or the server is not responding.
The error i get as below. hopefully get some idea to solve this issue.

I have a default 30 min session timeout for normal users. Now i want to set 1 hour time out for admin users. Can someone guide me how to acomplish this.
What am I doing wrong. The sessionState Timeout never fires,It only fires after 24 hours, I want to let it fire in 20 minutes on my webpage. In the web.config I handle the sessionstate like this:
There is a thread addressing this but it does not provide the type of answer I am seeking.
When login page is requested due to timeout, there is query string parameter "ReturnUrl" which is very nice and I want to keep that. However, timeout is not the only scenario that generates that parameter. If a restricted page is requested before the user is authenticated, such parameter exists too.
Here is my question is, how can the timeout be detected in the code-behind of the login page assuming the login page is directed to by IIS not by code-behind?
