C# 3.0 - Programmatically Session After A Given Amount Of Time?
Jun 15, 2010
we're in need to stop the user session in an ASP.NET site after some time(say 20 mins). We know we can use a timer and code every page to expire on the timer tick, but we're searching a faster way, maybe through an IIS configuration? Is there a built in way to do such things? We're using ASP.NET 2.0, Framework 3.5, IIS 6, c#.
ADDON: I think it's better to elaborate a bit on the question. We want to achieve something like a "demo" mode, where a user can use the site in full mode for a bounch of minutes, then the site will be inoperable due to the elapsed "demo" time.
I am using session timeout in IIS 8 for about 60 minutes :<sessionState timeout="60" /> now lets suppose 58 minutes have passed , and it showed user a message that your session will be expired after 2 minutes , Click here [BUTTON] to refresh the session timeout , without page refreshing, clicking on the button , i want to reset the session timeout .... when user clicks on button at 58th minute , his session would be reset to 60 minute without page refresh ....
how to suppress the "AM" in the gridview (template Bind("RideTimeMin", "{0:t}")? Don't tell me to use military time because the function is not "time on a clock"; it's how much time is allowed for a task (in this case the min/max hours & minutes that horses have to complete a 20 mile trail; e.g. 05:00, 05:27, etc). I'm currently accomplishing this in the "ondatabound" function by "..RTmin.Replace("AM","")". I have looked and looked at all the websites that talk about datetime formatting but have yet to find a way to do it upfront in the gridview bind statement.
I have a variable called "Totaltime" in my program. I assign the variable (in seconds) as Totaltime = 3600. Now i want to reduce the time by 1 sec for each Tick event and show the reducing time in label or litera control. tell the C# ASP.NET coding to implement this?
I have a web service that creates a thread to process some data in the background. I've seen a "System.Threading.ThreadAbortException: Thread was being aborted" message in one of my logs where the thread was killed. I am currently under the assumption that the thread will run as long as it takes to execute the tasks that it's working on, however after googling the exeception I've seen several posts making mention of increasing the ExecutionTimeOut property of the application in the web.config file. My question is: What is the maximum execution time of a thread executed in ASP.NET? Is this timeout unlimited or still bound by the ExecutionTimeOut property of the application?
I have a web service in ASP.NET being called by a time-sensitive process. If the web service takes longer than N seconds to run I want to return from the call so the time sensitive operation can continue. Is this possible and if so what is the code for this?
I have a form where users can upload Pdf files(about 30 pages to one document or so). I want to delay storing these Pdfs in the database until the user submits the entire form. The problem is that the collection of files uploaded must be able to persist through postbacks. That being said, I am considering storing these as session variables, however, would this be too much data to store, or are session variables meant to store a couple strings here and there? If this method is not acceptable, is there an alternate method?
I need to store a large amount of data in user's session but I guess using Session Object is not the best way of doing that. Is there any other way around??? Remember I don't have small variables to store, I have large collections.
is my session related tag in web.config file but most of the time if i idle 20 minutes then its automatically timedout and went to my login page, is there any solution ?

The default cookie name for the Session Id in ASP.NET is ASP.NET_SessionId. It's also possible to change this name to something else like <sessionState cookieName="FooBar" />.
Is there a member to easily access this name like with FormsAuthentication.FormsCookieName?
We have an external site which the users in our company connect to by giving their corresponding username and password. The external site is an ASP.NET website. We want to integrate this website into our intranet portal so that the users don't have to enter their UN/Pwd to login to the website. Since the target website has no provision for SSO, we are simulating the POST request to login.We are now required to perform an action after the initial login is done, on an another page. We can simulate the corresponding POST request as well

I have developed application in ASP.NET and placed on UAT server (windows XP IIS) where it worked fine but since I moved on production server (windows 2003 + IIS) after sometime its keep on expiring the session.
Please suggest urgently if possible how i can make it not to expire session at all.
What is the best way to show a message to user after session is expired? By then, the user should be logged out and redirected to start page. I can use javascript to redirect user to start page. I just want to show a message on start page.
