I have an IHttpHandler that implements IRequiresSessionState. Everything works fine on most servers but there are 2 servers (one IIS 7.0 and one IIS 7.5) that give me null sessions. Aspx pages are fine on every server. I've searched for hours and failed to find anything that is not related to IRequiresSessionState.
View 1 RepliesI am trying to create url routing like this[URL] but I am having few questions , first why he is adding lines to the web.config , I tested it and it didnt appear that they're doing something as I commented them and nothing major appeared second I am having this line of code that is crashing var display = BuildManager.CreateInstanceFromVirtualPath(_virtualPath,typeof(Page)) as IProfileHandler;
when casted as ihttphandler it's working , but when I am casting it to iprofilehandler(which is implemeting ihttphandler) it's giving null !
I have a bunch of EC2 servers that are load balanced. Some of the servers are not sharing session, and users keep getting logged in and out. How can I make all the server share the one session, possibly even using a partitionresolver solution
public class PartitionResolver : System.Web.IPartitionResolver
{
private String[] partitions;
public void Initialize()
{
// create the partition connection string table
// web1, web2
partitions = new String[] { "192.168.1.1" };
}
public String ResolvePartition(Object key)
{
String oHost = System.Web.HttpContext.Current.Request.Url.Host.ToLower().Trim();
if (oHost.StartsWith("10.0.0") || oHost.Equals("localhost"))
return "tcpip=127.0.0.1:42424";
String sid = (String)key;
// hash the incoming session ID into
// one of the available partitions
Int32 partitionID = Math.Abs(sid.GetHashCode()) % partitions.Length;
return ("tcpip=" + partitions[partitionID] + ":42424");
}
}
I have a problem with a SessionVariable. I will explain what is happening:
1. From the default.aspx I send Session["LoginByAdmin"] = "Dummy"; and then redirect to this page where I have the code below. So the Page_Load sees that this Session["LoginByAdmin"] != null and enter this page. This works fine !
2. In the Page_Load, I later fill a ListBox1 with foldernames.
3. With Button1_Click1, I will now delete the choosen Folder in the ListBox1 wich works fine the first time and the ListBox updates the new existing folders in the ListBox. (I have wrapped this inside an updatepanel)
The problems comes now when I try to delete a choosen folder in the ListBox1 the second time in a row. When I select a Folder in the ListBox1 and now Press Button1, I will be redirected to "Default.aspx". This meens that this code is running: (That meens that Session["LoginByAdmin"] == null and I have not set this to null anywhere. This is my big question how this variable can be = null here?
if (Session["LoginByAdmin"] == null)
Response.Redirect("Default.aspx");
break;

I have some cascading dropdownlists using the ajax toolkit I have a set up datatables in an xsd file. Then use these in a webservice to populate all the fields ... this all works great but now i need to pass an additional paramter to the first dropdownlist ( a date) but don't know how to do this? The method is below...
[Code]....
The other code is:
[Code]....
The first change would be to the tableadapter to add a param to the code i.e
AuditWebDS.TeamsDataTable teams = teamsAdapter.GetTeams(calldate);
but how do i get the calldate param to the webservice method... i tried a session variable but it comes up with session is null ? Is there another better way?
So I've read quite a few posts about how to do this, and it's still getting me. I'm trying to control access to a directory, but I continue to get a null session error. I'm doing my check in PostAcquireRequestState
[Code]....no matter where I put this, my session always comes back null. I am using IRequireSessionState on the class as well. Am I pulling the context wrong?
I am trying to set up my web site on a stand alone server using Windows Server 2003 with IIS 6 which will access SQL server database (2008) on windows 2008 R2 server (also not in the domain) I am using form authentication and I have configured a custom identity account in IIS6. The local account is on both servers with same password and I have registered the account using aspnet_regiis.exe -ga The application pool in my iis6 has the custom local account set as the identity and my web.config file has the appropriate tags in the system.web element <identity impersonate="true" />
The problem is the local account does not seem to get passed to the sql server. Right now my iis settings are anonymous access (using the local acct vs isr) and no authentication specified under that - I did try Integrated and basic but it prompts for the username and password which I do not want. One article I read stated this: windows authentication does not support delegation (passing credentials from one server to another) and is limited to the one hop rule, only a primary token can be passed to a second server. windows
authentication on iis (all versions) gives the thread a secondary(impersonation) token which can not be used to access any network resouce
I got an ashx file to create an image. I am referencing it via web.config like this:

Actually the handler never gets called. I already searched the forums and tried some tips and hints. But nothing of that worked. Try to call the url via[URL]
In my ASP.NET 4.0 application, I've got an event handler for PreRequestHandlerExecute in global.asax.cs.
I want to access data in the Session. Most times, the session is defined, but sometimes it is null. when it is initialized and when it is not?
I made a custom handler that derives from MvcHandler. I have my routes using a custom RouteHandler that returns my new handler for GetHttpHandler(), and I override ProcessRequest() in my custom handler. The call to GetHttpHandler is triggering a breakpoint and my handler's constructor is definitely being called, but BeginProcessRequest() is being called on the base MvcHandler instead of ProcessRequest().
Why are the async methods being called when I haven't done anything to call them? I don't want asynchronous handling, and I certainly didn't do anything explicit to get it. My controllers all derive from Controller, not AsyncController.
I don't have the source code with me right now, but I can add it later if needed. I was hoping someone might know some of the reasons why BeginProcessRequest might be called when it's not wanted.
I have an IHttpHandler that I would like to hook into the OutputCache support so I can offload cached data to the IIS kernel. I know MVC must do this somehow, I found this in OutputCacheAttribute:
public override void OnResultExecuting(ResultExecutingContext filterContext) {
if (filterContext == null) {
throw new ArgumentNullException("filterContext");
}

I am getting HttpContext.Current.Session is null.Will this be a problem if we have application hosted in web farm.

I apologize if this question has been asked prior, but I hunted around for about 3 hours today looking for some information. I have taken our existing application and converted it to use both Web Forms and MVC. This application uses multiple modulessuch as Products, Orders, Administration, etc... Each one of those is a web application and a hybrid that is copied into the main application at build time. We are using the Composite Web Application Block to handle our modules and IoC. I have created a Controller Factory that inherits the DefaultControllerFactory and overrides the GetControllerInstance method. However, I commented this out and it still gives the same problem. That problem being that when the controller is in an action, the Session is null. From what I understand, the Handler implements IRequiresSessionState, so the session should not be null. I have tried it out in a smaller, non-hybrid application and the Session is not null. Therefore, it is something that I am missing in the application that I have converted. If anyone has any information on what I might be doing wrong,
View 3 RepliesI've been using the session array to store a state variable for my webpart... so I have a property like this:
public INode RootNode
{
get
{
return this.Context.Session["RootNode"] as INode;
}
set
{
this.Context.Session["RootNode"] = value as object;
}
}
This usually works fine. I've discovered that sometimes, the context.session variable will be null.
I'd like to know what are the conditions that cause the session to be null in the first place, and whats the best way to persist my object when this happens? Can I just assign a new HttpSessionState object to the context, or does that screw things up?
Edit: Ok, so its not just the session that is null... the whole context is screwed up. When the webpart enters the init, the context is fine... but when it reaches the dropbox selectedindexchange postback event (the dropbox contains node id's to use to set the rootnode variable), the context contains mostly null properties.
also, it only seems to happen when certain id's are selected. This looks more like some kind of weird bug on my end than a problem with my understanding of the session.
If I create an ASP.NET Web Application project and then add an ASP.NET MVC 2 to it using the default routes defined like so
routes.MapRoute(
"Default", // Route name
"{controller}/{action}/{id}", // URL with parameters
new { action = "Index", id = UrlParameter.Optional }
);
The Session object is NULL when I try and access it in the action methods of the controllers. If I change my routes to this.
routes.MapRoute(
"Default", // Route name
"{controller}.aspx/{action}/{id}", // URL with parameters
new { action = "Index", id = UrlParameter.Optional }
);
Everything works just fine. For whatever reason having the .aspx extension allows for session to be used, but the later doesn't. I'm using .NET 3.5 for everything.
I'm populating an object model with a linq query. The model looks like this:
MyModel{
DateTime AppointDate {get; set;}
int TotalAppoints {get; set;}
int AppointDuration {get; set;}
}
The linq-to-sql query looks like that:
public static GetAppointsFromDB(params){
var MyQuery = from....where...
select new MyModel{
AppointDate = ...,
TotalAppoints = ...,
AppointDuration =...};
return MyQuery as MyModel;}
In the master page, I'm looking to load the result of this query in the session like this:
if (Session["Appoints"] == null) {Session["Appoints"] = GetAppointsFromDB(...);}
When I run with the code, the session is always null. I added this line a second time, just right after, and the query runs again. When I'm looking to use the session at some other point in the code, it is null too there too. The query works because when I put a breakpoint on the return statement, I see the object properly filled.
If i have a page in which I want to check whether session is null.
If it is null it will redirect to other page.
But i also have a  if (!Page.IsPostBack)
so i will check the session inside this  if (!Page.IsPostBack) or outside it?
I am trying to add page with custom extension, say .asp2 with my set of html tags.Now whenever i try to access the page on browser...it asks me "Save as". This happens because I am using an extn which the server is not able to recognise.What should I do to so that my server, IIS 5.1 recognises this extension??
how to associate custom events on such custom page?
I am trying to implement an IHttpHandler. I have defined an appropriate class but the debug web server (you know, the one you get if you hit f5 in Visual Studio) is responding with "Can't Display Page".I looked here http://msdn.microsoft.com/en-us/library/ms228090%28v=VS.90%29.aspx to learn how to configure the handler, and it seems there are different ways for IIS6 and 7. But the process is put something in the web.config and then set it up in IIS Manager. However, that is a deployment issue. I want to be able to run it in the test server, and I don't know how to do this second step in the test server.I put the following in my web.config:
<httpHandlers>
<add verb="*" path="*.sample"
type="MyNamespace.Code.HelloWorldHandler"/>
</httpHandlers>
HelloWorldHandler is the code from the link above (wrapped in MyNamespace.)
Can someone let me know how to configure this correctly for the development server?
I'm working on a reporting script which runs a number of reports (pdf) on button click. The reports are created on the web server then I'd like the user to be given the option to download the files. I have worked out the script for downloading one file from the server. But I'm not sure how to download multiple files? (there will probably be about 50)
After I run one report I redirect the user to a http handler script.
Response.Redirect("Download.ashx?ReportName=" + "WeeklySummary.pdf");
public class Download : IHttpHandler {

I have a IHttpHandler that acts as a source to a jQuery Autocomplete input field. In the constructor of the handler I generate an index that remains fairly static between request (needs to be rebuilt maybe once a day).How can I cache the the index between calls? Debugging indicates that the constructor is called for each request. I've set IsReusable to "false".
View 2 RepliesI want to create an HTTP handler within my project. To do this, I created a new class, and tried to implement IHttpHandler.
Each time I do this, I get the error 'End of statement expected'.
I know that normally you can create a new class library and create a class to implement a handler. But why is it not possible to do this in an existing web project?
I need to pass some values around using session state. My approach is to first check if my session variable is null and if it is not, then proceed with my C# logic. Is that correct? Will my Session variable ever contain garbage in it, like a corrupted string? Or will I be guaranteed that it is null if not explicitly set.
if(Session["MyVariable"]!=null {
// Do some logic }
