I am using Session variable throughout in my application and my timeout is 1 hour. Here I need to catch the exception for session expires in any global way across my application.
View 3 RepliesI have a simple ASP.NET 4 site. I am using Forms Authentication. I have Session timeout set to 20 minutes. Also when the user authenticates I set the AuthenticationTicket to expire in 20 minutes. So normally everything works fine. If there is more than 20 minutes of inactivity and the user requests a page on the site they are redirected back to the Login page as I would expect.
However, let's say that the user is on a page that contains a form. Then they wait 25 minutes. Then they go to submit the form. Instead of being redirected back to the Login page, the site attempts the postback and I immediately get errors because there is code in the postback that attempts to get information out of Session.
It seems like ASP.NET does not redirect back to Login on postback if the AuthenticationTicket and Session has expired. How can I handle this? I hope I don't have to write special code on each page.
ADDED: web.config code
<location path="ForgotLogin.aspx">
<system.web>
<authorization>
<allow users="*" />
</authorization>
</system.web>
</location>
<system.web>
<authentication mode="Forms">
<forms loginUrl="~/Login.aspx"></forms>
</authentication>
<authorization>
<deny users="?" />
</authorization>
</system.web>
I want to know page name when session expires so that I redirect user to that page after relogin. I am checking session in Master page's page load event
View 4 RepliesI want to display a pop up when the session expires. I'm using the MVC 1 and jquery. I've some .aspx and some .ascx pages.
How do i achieve that? Right now, the application redirects to Login page. But before login page shows up, i want to display the message.
How does session expires when the browser is closed?
View 4 Repliesi want your opinion about the
Response.AddHeader("Refresh", Convert.ToString((Session.Timeout * 60) - 20))that i have seen in some sites that is used for refresh the page every time a little bit before the session expires
I am using a timer in the master page of my web site in order to keep a 'status bar' up to date with all sorts of information.The issue is that the whole point of session expiry goes to waste, because a postback is always being made (although asynchronic) to the server.
How can i still expire the session after a wanted period of time?
I cache information about the currently logged in user in the session. This info lazy loads whenever a CurrentUser property on my global application class is used. It does this by calling GetUser() on my custom implementation of MembershipProvider, which either loads the user up from the session, or loads the user from the DB and throws the user object in the session.
How should I handle this scenario?
User logs in. Administrator deletes user (or deactivates...the point is they can't log in any more). User's session expires. User navigates to a page or makes a request, or whatever.
Currently if this scenario occurs, NullReferenceExceptions are thrown all over the place, because the ASP .NET framework calls GetUser() which returns nothing because it can't find the user in the database (and there's nothing in the session because it expired).
i have a website and i know that the session expires and it gives me instance of object not set error.
I have a masterpage could i do it in there on page_load?
I am trying to delete Files and Directory through ASP.NET3.5 (C#)web application.
But as soon as DirectoryFile is deleted It automatically redirects me to Login Page.
It means I am lossing my session on deleting File/Directory.
I have Page1 having Button1.
Page2 having Button 2 and an ascx control UC1. UC1 has a Button 3. Page2 is a modal dialog ( window.showModalDialog )
on Click of Button1 open Page2(modal dialog).
Page2 has UC1. UC1 has a button B3. On click of B3,instead of directly going to B3_click event, another post back happens. Thereafter opens login.aspx in another browser ( It is losing Session containing UserDetails as well as other session details).
now even If I continue entering Username and password, page2 reloads again in the new browser.
I am totally lost.
1) I do not know why UC1 button click makes another postback and thereafter opens up into another page losing all the sessions!!
I want to retain teh sessions till i go back to page1.
I simply want to display a message on the login page when the user is automatically redirected there after requesting a page that they were logged in for but their session has now expired. So essentially if the user was working but stepped away for a lunch break without logging out I want the system to tell them why they were sent back to the login page.
Something like "You have been idle for too long so you must log back in".
This has to be easy I am just running into a wall here. I thought about getting the original ticket and reading the expiration date but I'm a little lost.
In my asp.net website I am creating a session upon user login and I would like to perform some operations in the database just before this session will expire.I am having problem in determining where should I write code and how will I know the session is going to expire.
I am not sure if 'session_end' event of 'Global.asax' suits my requirements as the session I want to check is created manually(not a browser instance).
I have this setting in web config for session.
[Code]....
On localhost works well. On the hosting server expires very quickly. Sometimes after a minute, and sometimes after a few minutes.
I tried mode="StateServer" and mode="SQLServer", but first works the same, other doesn't work. The next problem is that End_Session in global.asax doesn't executes if mode is not InProc. And I need this.
How could I achive that session expires only when browser is closed or other url is typed. Just setting timeout doesn't work.
my web app doesn't use authorization in web.config, but i want to detect when a session has expired and redirect to the home page.I have searched and found solutions that rely on the web app using authorization. Other solutions have implemented a user control to drop in every page.Obviosly i don't want to manually check for null on every session variable on every event of the web app, so i want the app to do it automatically.
<sessionState timeout="120"></sessionState>
<authentication mode="Forms">
<forms name="myappCookie" loginUrl="~/index.aspx" timeout="120"/>
</authentication>
doesn't work for me since i don't have allow or deny settings, since my app doesn't need authentication.
I'm facing a great problem in session. My session expires after every 4-5 minutes. Firstly I checked my web hosting settings. I increased session timeout to 50000. In my web.config I wrote :
[Code]....
Also Locally it expires withing 5 minutes. Secondly can I also increase idle timeout.
I am not sure what the event is called but I'm trying to get it so if your not logged in you can't manually type the page name in the bar at the top. I need to find a way so it will always redirect you to the login page if you haven't signed in.
Also the same goes for sessions, at the moment when my session time runs out my website fails as there is alot linked to sessions from my database, how do I get it so when a session expires upon trying to navigate inside the website you are passed back to the login page?

View 4 Repliesi got this exception when i done the code given below..
"Unable to evaluate expression because the code is optimized or a native frame is on top of the call stack."
--code--
try
{
if (retVal == 0)
Response.Redirect("Success.aspx");
}
catch(Exception error)
{
Response.Redirect("errorpage.aspx");
}
finally{
}
from searching in net i found it to be a bug and if its success then we should end response... ie " Response.Redirect("Success.aspx", false); ".it works fine.. is this a good method or there is any other efficient method to handle this exception

For example, I am using wenclient.DownloadfileAsync to download a file asynchronously.
In the DownloadFileCompleted event handler, I can check if I have any exception or not by using AsyncCompletedEventArgs.Error property.
If I re-throw this exception, however my executable is stopping running immediately.
I am wondering how to handle this kind of exeception? How to pass this exception back to the
calling thread?
i'm using asp.net 2.0 form with ajax. i have an ihhtpmodule which can thrown an exception at Application_EndRequest step. my problem is that if this happen in an async postback (i mean a postback of an update panel) i can't manage the exception (with manage i mean set a custom error message server-side) becouse it's too late for the error handler of the ScriptManager.
(the alert will print a message as:
Sys.WebForms.PageRequestManagerParserErrorException: The message received from the server could not be parsed. Common causes for this error are when the response is modified by calls to Response.Write(), response filters, HttpModules, or server trace is enabled.
Details: Error parsing near 'MyButt" />
|<html>
<head>)
at the moment my idea is to clear the response in the module and find a way to use the scriptmanager to send the correctly response of an error/exception. it's this possible? or samebody has another option of how to manage this case? note:i can't edit the aspx to manage this client client side with custom javascript
