how to regenerate a new Session ID in ASP.NET. If we are using SessionManager to generate a new id then it doesn't change the value of Session.SessionID. how this can be achieved. Basically I want to have a new Session.SessionID after abandoning Session or generating NewID with SessionManager.
I managed to dynamically add nodes to my sitemap at runtime, but the changes are not reflected in my menu (which is populating from the sitemap) unless I restart the application (restart the webserver). Is there a way to trigger the event of regenerating the sitemap, and thus triggering the menu to repopulate with the new nodes?
if there is a way to dynamically change the session ID from the context of a SessionStateStoreProvider (or some other customizable module) in C# for ASP.NET.
I am implementing a custom SessionStateStoreProvider, and I was thinking about augmenting the session ID to tell the store provider where to go look for a session. I've implemented a custom SessionIDManager, which lets me augment newly created session IDs with the required tag. The problem is that the desired value of that tag might change during the life of a session. For example, the session may be read from one location, but may need to written to a different location. In this instance the ID would have originally been tagged for location A, but on writing the store would want to write to location B. The tag should be updated to reflect location B for the next session read.
So, from the context of SessionStateProviderBase override...
... is it possible to change the session ID? I know that the HttpContext.Session.SessionID property is not settable. Is there some other way to feedback an update like this? Or is there a more appropriate to carry state like this across calls?
Our solution is built on ASP.NET v1.1 framework. User is presented with login form, so upon providing credentials this information is posted back to the server. Upon postback SessionID changes and our application crashes as some information which is required for processing is stored in the cache and is identified by SessionID string as a part of the name.
This SessionID change happens absolutely randomly and only to some of the clients. Most of the time browser used to view the page and post info is IE8. I cannot reproduce this issue in our test environment, as SessionID is persistent though-out the whole testing process.
I've already checked all solutions, i.e.
Session cache is used on Page_Load to retrieve/store some information, so it's initialized and contains data stored. I've made a Health Monitoring check on Application_End event to capture any possible AppDomain crashes using Reflection and Diagnostics Libraries and retrieving ShutDownMessage from httpruntime object, but that's also not a case. Cookieless attribute of the sessionState in web.config is set to false (using URL to store SessionID is not an option) All MS security and bug fixes are installed on the server. IIS Server settings are similar to the ones we use in Test Environment.
I have an ASP.NET page that has a wizard control. I need to see if the same user is working on the page so I first time I insert a record and next time I update database records. I am using Session.SessionID to check if the same user is working on the page, but on every postback, SessionID gives a unique string and always the "insert" construct executes.
What is the best way to check the same user is working back and forth on the same page. User is not logged in, its an open form on the page.
I'd like that when a user logoff or his session expires, tha SessionID is no longer valid.
I've found the way to do it when the user logoff, simply doing:
[Code]....
But I don't know how to do it when the session has expired. Apparently, if the session has expired and the browser tries again to connect, the same SessionID will be recycled, and I want the server issues a new one, how can I do it?
I'm storing the session IDs of the logged-in users in a database, so I need to kill some sessions using the session Ids stored in the database, but unfortuently I'm not able to get any session using the seesion ID so that I can kill it.
I'm running a WebMethod when a user clicks a link and I want the service method to have access to the clients SessionID but when I try to initialise a new string it returns a null value.
So to clarify(an example):
[WebMethod] public string myMethod() { string s = Session.SessionID.ToString(); //rest of method here... }
string s is returning null value. The code works fine on a postback and the method works without SessionID but I really want/need to be able to use a callback and need to be able to use the SessionID
I'm writing some logging code that is based on SessionID. However, when I log out (calling Session.Abandon), and log in once again, SessionID is still the same. Basically every browser on my PC has it's own session id "attached", and it won't change for some reason. My Session config looks like this:
I have ASP page that host an ASP.NET page in iframe. When I test this in FireFox all work ok but when I use IE the ASP.NET page is creating a new sessionID for each request. it only work if I change the IE Privacy settings allow session cookies .
To avoid session fixation/hijacking we are heeding the common advice to create a new ASP.Net session for a user after authentication. Sounds simple enough. When a user authenticates we call Session.Abandon() the session ID cookie Response.Cookies.Add(new HttpCookie("ASP.NET_SessionId", "") then redirect the user.
However, how do we know on the new page that the user has logged in? We cannot check a session variable because there are none, we just started a brand new session.
I would swear, though I cannot find it now, that on this site someone explained how you can abandon a session and then get the next subsequent session ID. This way you could store that information. Then on the "Start Page" a new session would begin and that page could look up the old Session based on the new ID and validate that a user logged in.
So, are there any masters of the ASP.Net Session classes that know how to do this?
I am implementing the Ecommerce projects, where I need to static SessionID, is there any way to maintain the SessionID in the Entire Application.Explanation of my question is herehttp://stackoverflow.com/questions/2467644/session-sessionid-in-asp-netbut How can I implement this approach.
I have used Session.SessionID property, but it's keep on changing on every page postback.....can we keep it same untill user sign out from his account..?
I'm a bit stumped by this one. Have a VS 2008 website running on Windows 7 using the VS web server. One of the pages transfers to another page (page2). On page2, each time I cause a postback by clicking a button, I get a different session.sessionid. I was under the impression sessionid was constant throughout the session, i.e. until the browser is closed or the session expires (~20 minutes). Is this just a VS web server quirk?

I want to create new Asp.Net_SessionId whenever user LoggedIn to my system. How can i create it and if i cannot create it then what may be the approach to update Asp.Net_SessionId value, I means should i save Guid.NewGuid() in Asp.Net_SessionId to create a new value of Asp.Net_SessionId
I 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 ?
how can I synchronize sessionID over multiple second-domain servers? For example, I've got servers(you can log-in into server swarm at any of these), [URL], [URL], [URL] and if you log in at one of them, the login information (+anything else) should persist along them. How can I provide SessionID to other domains? (session itself is stored on sql server shared across the services).
