I am trying to redirect to the same page with different query string parameters
HttpResponse resp = HttpContext.Current.Response;
resp.Redirect(landingPagePath)
To avoid further processing after redirection i check if
HttpContext.Current.Session.IsNewSession == false
but for some reason i found that this is not always the case after redirection
I have a small 4-page application for my customers to work through. They fill out information. If they let it sit too long, and the Session timeout out, I want to pop up a javascript alert that their session has expired, and that they need to start over. At that point, then redirected to the beginning page of the application.
I'm getting some strange behavior. I'm stepping through code, forcing my Sessioni.IsNewSession to be true. At this point, I write out a call to Javascript to a Literal Control placed at the bottom of the . The javascript is called, and the redirection occurs.
However, what is happening is.. I am pressing a button which is more or less a "Next Page" button and triggering this code. The next page is being displayed, and then the Alert and redirection occurs. The result I was expecting was to stay on the same page I received the "Timeout", with the alert to pop-up over it, then redirection.
I'm checking for Session.IsNewSession in a BaseClass for these pages, overriding the OnInit event.
i'm using an example in which i can fake the session.It's for use in a unittest of a mvc controller.In the test i create a controller and then i do this:
FakeHttpContext httpctx = new FakeHttpContext(null,null,null,null,mSessionItems );
ControllerContext ctx2 = new ControllerContext(httpctx,new RouteData(), target);
here mSessionItems is my session and target is my instance of a controller,and indeed, when i'm in a controller reading this.ControllerContext.HttpContext.Session, i have a session, great!but.... i also read the session outside the controller, and there i use HttpContext.Current.Session, and that is null (or actualy, the HttpContext.Current is null).
Is there room for issue in the following code in terms of multiple users of the same web application? I mean, I know that a purely static string will be shared across all sessions for a single ASP.NET application, but since this explicitly refers to the Current.Session, even though it is static it seems like it would always refer to the session instance of the "current user." But an error is happening that could be explained by everyone sharing the current value of Mode and thus the most recent change overwriting everyone else's mode value. (As a background: This string is in a Helpers class that is used throughout the application. I do not want to make references to Session["Mode"] throughout the application and do not want to have to pass Session["Mode"] in every method call from an aspx.cs page.)
public static string Mode
{
get
{
var value = HttpContext.Current.Session["Mode"];
return (value ?? string.Empty).ToString();
}
set
{
HttpContext.Current.Session["Mode"] = value;
}
}
As I have migrated Web Application from 3.5 (VS 2008 ) to 4.0 Vs (2010)

As I in .aspx pages i have found the following solution and it is working fine.
old Code with is not Working in Vs2010
[code]....
But now I need to Redirect from the class librarySo can any one guide me on the same.. i can i redirect .. AS I have try with HttpContext.Current.Response.Redirect(strURL); but it is not working.
I am getting HttpContext.Current.Session is null.Will this be a problem if we have application hosted in web farm.
View 1 RepliesI am searching to find a way to read and write on session data but with out having the HttpContext.Current.Why I won to do that ?, because I wish to make some action with the user Session after the page have been close and unloaded. For example, a user load and see a page, then I create a thread to make some action and let user go. Inside this thread I like to read the session data, but in this case HttpContext.Current is not exist any more.
So is there a way to read Session Data knowing just the session id.I store my session inside an sql server, and I see them... its there on table ASPStateTempSessions . How can I read them "offline" and manipulate them ?
i'm storing in HttpContext.Current.Session current user, SiteUser is single-tone class that presents current active siteuser, and when he logged i'm creating new SiteUser() in controller and in constructor adding him to the session:
[Code]....
then, with every request to the server services i'm check is user available in session:
[Code]....
otherwise i'm generate non-auth-user exception and redirect him to the logon page. but sometimes HttpContext.Current.Session[sessionKey] is null, but HttpContext.Current.Session doesn't null and FormsAuthenticationTicket is available and Expired property is also false. can somebody help me, why HttpContext.Current.Session[sessionKey] can be null?UPDi have downloaded symbol tables of source .NET Framework and set breakpoints at SessionStateItemCollection on changing collection items. and i resolved some mistakes:1) all collection items are null — "culture" is setting up after2) it happens at the session end eventi can't understand how it can be, because at web.config session timeout is set 20
What is the easy/safe way to get all HttpContext.Current data (like querystring, etc) in the previous page, after response.redirect or server.transfer to another page?
I am using .net 3.5
We have a web site which implements a central HttpSessionState management in App_Code like this:
[code]...
All of this worked fine ultil we needed to implement a time consuming process in a new thread...
In the second thread HttpContext.Current.Session is null (we know its because the current context its different between threads) so everything fails :
Investigating we found that you could pass the session from one thread to another like this:

I'm using VS2010 and created a simple asp. web forms application, using Development Server to test it. I try to store user data - queried from sql server - in the session, since I don't want to access database in every request. I'm using the 'Application_AuthenticateRequest' and the 'Session_Start' methods.
First round:
AuthenticateRequest called. The following code ran:
[Code]....
The _current variable is a private static field published through a static property. In the first round the Session is null, and I think it's ok because the Session_Start not called yet. The Session_Start looks like this:
protected void Session_Start(object sender, EventArgs e)
{
Session["EMPLOYEE_DATA"] = EmployeeFactory.Current;
}
In the next round the Session_Start is not called of course but in the AuthenticateRequest I can't access to the session. The HttpContext.Current.Session is null and the this.Session reference throw a HttpException says the "Session state is not available in this context".
However I can access the Session from any of the page_load events but it's a bad practice I think that I put authentication every page_load.
I created an AutocompleteExtender web service. I am getting a Object reference not set error in the peice of the code where I am referring to System.Web.HttpContext.Current.Session. Does anyone know why this is. And I am checking to see if it is != null before I reference it. But it crashes. Is there another way to pass another parameter to the web service?
View 2 RepliesIn our application we have to access session objects in business class. We are using HttpContext.Current.Session to get the session value. In some cases it returns the value but mostly its throwing a null reference exception(Object reference not set to an instance of an object). We have the following code Try
If HttpContext.Current.Session("Username") IsNot Nothing then
' Statements to be executed
End If
Catch ex As Exception
'Log to db
End Try
Here HttpContext.Current.Session("Username") is mostly throwing an exception "Object reference not set to an instance of an object" While debugging we found that HttpContext.Current itself is nothing.
1. SetSession.aspx page sets value for a session variable and redirects to default.aspx page using Response.redirect() code.
2. Default.aspx page tries to create an object of class in app_codecommon.cs file.
3. In app_codeCommon.cs file, I am trying to access the session variable set in step1 using HttpContext.Current.Session object.
but step 3 gives error that object reference not set to an instance. as HttpContext.Current.Session is null.
I surf abt it on net, and seems to be problem with asp.net framework.
I have a static class with serveral static methods. In these methods, I'm trying to access the current thread's context using HttpContext.Current. For example:
var userName = HttpContext.Current.User.Identity.Name;
However, when I do that, I receive a NullReferenceException, the infamous "Object reference not set to an instance of an object."
I'm wondering how HttpContext.Current gets assigned a unique instance for every request considering it's a static object?

EDIT: Assuming ASP.NET webforms (not MVC).
As per title. I want to be able to save some data in a cache object but this object must be available to all users/sessions and can expire.What is the best method to achieve this in a asp.net web app?
View 2 RepliesI have some code that works fine when I need to delete some image files from a directory on my web server:
Dim ImageURL As String = dsImages.Tables(0).Rows(iImgRow).Item("ImageURL")
Dim physicalName = Server.MapPath(ImageURL)
oUpload.DeleteFileFromServer(physicalName, iAdid, iImgID)
.but I am running into a problem when a maintenance task running in a separate thread at set intervals determines that files like the above need to be deleted:
Dim ImageURL As String = dsImage.Tables(0).Rows(i - 1).Item("ImageURL")
Dim iImgID As Integer = dsImage.Tables(0).Rows(i - 1).Item("ImageId")
Dim physicalName As String = HttpContext.Current.Server.MapPath(ImageURL)
oUpload.DeleteFileFromServer(physicalName, iAdID, iImgID)
In this latter case, HttpContext.Current.Server.MapPath(ImageURL) has a value of Nothing.Is there a way to get the full path for this case?

i have problem accessing HttpContext.Current.Application From global.asax its seems to be null every time i try to access it. How can i to this?
HttpContext.Current.Application.Lock();
HttpContext.Current.Application["Actions"] = "hello";
HttpContext.Current.Application.UnLock();
During Application_End() in Global.aspx, HttpContext.Current is null. I still want to be able to access cache - it's in memory, so want to see if I can reference it somehow to save bits to disk.
Question - is there a way to reference cache in memory somehow when HttpContext.Current is null?
Perhaps I could create a global static variable that would store pointer to cache that I could update on HTTP requests (pseudo: "static <pointer X>" = HttpRequest.Current) and retrieve a reference to cache through that pointer in Application_End()?
Is there a better way to access Cache in memory when there is no Http Request is made?
am writing a web service in vb.net/asp.net 2, that needs user's name. It works fine when the url request is "www.mysite.com" but if any one has logged-in using "mysite.com" without a "www" and goes to the page that calls my web service, The HttpContext.Current.User.Identity.Name gives null. How can I resolve this problem?

I have used HttpContext.Current.Response.Redirect in a class file.
Is it right? or if any problem occur by using this?
Where does httpcontext.current.server.mappath start?
I don't get it... it doesn't return a path.
My webservice is ran when I debug my application :S.
