to set a new sessionId on sign out, but when the session expires, the sessionId is reused if the browser instance is not closed. In my web.config I have used
but still get sessions reused. I can't kill the cookie in Session_end() because I don't have access because there is no HttpContext or request, so I can't reset it that way. how I can force a new sessionId from the Global.asax.cs file?
I am have declared a session variable in login page of my application. I want to access that session variable in Application_BeginRequest of global.asax file. But I am not able to do it. Could you please suggest how to access the session variable in my global.asax file
Can I set the connection string for custom session state mode in global.asax file? I cannot hard code the connection string in the webconfig file. ,I will get the connection string at runtime,Can i set the connection string for custom sessionmode/sqlserver session mode in the global.asax file(like in application statrevent, or aquirerequeststate event.If YES How to do that?
I added the following code to global.asax to load up several session variable when a session starts. I'm assuming that when a page goes to use the variable that I should be
1) checking at the page level that the value is valid not 0 when its not expected to be 0, not a zero-length string when its expected to have a length
2) have code at the page level that sets the values if the values have not been set as when the Session timeout, ideally putting the code in a class derived from Page and then deriving all of my pages from the new class so that the code does not have to be repeated in every page
how to get sessions in the global.asax, but I still cant get it to work...for some reason my session throws NullExceptions..the sessions are set from another page add looks something like:
[Code]....
And once I try to get those session values I do the following in the Global.asax:
[Code]....
But as I said, for some reason I get a NullException once I try to get the values...and they do have the same session-name,so they shouldn't be null..
i dont know about Global.asax so give some information about it and also tell me about the implementation and use of session_start and session_end event. How to call Global.asax in our website.
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:
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 have a method in one class file with defination like this which gets the user id of logged person.
public string GetUserID(HttpRequest req) { .... }
I need to call this method in global.asax and save that value in session. I need to use this session value i need to use this Session value and assign that to label in Masterpage. I did not use global.asax before. And what should be the input to method... i have seen only Request is have the returntype HttpRequest. So i thought of giving that.
I'm getting a very peculiar problem with my asp.net application, it took me an age to track down but I still don't know what is causing this behaviour.
If I set a session variable in the Application_PreRequestHandlerExecute event, then my external JavaScript files are ignored, and therfore causing a raft of errors. I have simplified the problem below.
E.g.
I have file called JScript.js containing the code:
function myAlert() { alert("Hi World"); }
And in my Default.aspx file I reference the js with the code:
And in the body onload event I call the myAlert() function:
<body onload="myAlert()">
And finally in the Global.asax file:
Private Sub Application_PreRequestHandlerExecute(ByVal sender As Object, ByVal e As EventArgs) HttpContext.Current.Session("myVar") = "MyValue" End Sub
If you run the Default.aspx file you will see the js function isnt called, however, if you comment out the line of code Global.asax then the external js is called and the function executed when the page loads.
I have a hosted site and just added some additional error notification to my global.asax file and works like a charm. I decided to add the same logic to our test server and it doesnt work. The server.transfer never happens and the email never gets updated. Now i know the email works on the test and production server since we have other pages that use the same SMTP server name and setup as i have in the global file. Below is my code as it is in the file now. I setup a test page to cause an error and the page displays the detailed error which we dont want. But i would like to be notified if this happens. What am i missing? I can only assume that its a IIS confige issue, since the exact same code works on a hosted site, but not at work on our test or production servers. Here is the code i have in the global.asax
My ASP.NET intranet web application uses Windows Authentication, and I would like to record the following details:
1) Windows ID 2) Session Start Time 3) Session Stop Time 4) URL being browsed to (optional)
I've got some basic code setup in "Session_Start" method of the Global.ASAX to log session start times (seen below), but that's it so far. I have the feeling this is a primitive approach and there are "better" ways of doing this. So I really have two questions:
1) Is this the right way to go about doing this? If not what are some other options? 2) If this is the right way, do I just need to drop some code in the "Session_End" method to record the time they exit, and thats a complete solution? Does this method always get called when they close the browser tab they have the site open in, or do they have to close the entire browser (I don't have logout functionality)? Any way users can skip over this session end method (or start for that case)?

I have a custom class that pulls user information from a SQL Server table. Now that I'm expanding the site from a single page to others. I want to shift the code to the Session_Start event so that the information is always loaded when the site is accessed. How do I call my custom code from global.asax since its script and not a class.
I want to insitate a class instance in the session start of the application. code below
if (Session["user"] != null)
Session["user"] = new user();
I have created the "user" class as a separte dll and referenced and imported the namespace.But still i get 'are u missing assembly reference' it is not problem in 1.1 but seems has a problem in 2.0
I have an asp.net application. I want to add a global.asax and global.asax.cs file to my project. In the IDE when I select to create a new global.asax file, the option to create a CS code behind file is greyed out. When the global.asax file is created, no code behind is created, instead code is placed in the global.asax file and the global.asax.cs file is never created? Why is the option for a C# code behind file greyed out?
we have a store that we contracted with a company to modify. They added the following to our Global.asax file:
[code]...
The purpose is to take anyone going to one of our pages to a login screen unless they are going to these folders which do not need the login protection.
What should be done if I want to redirect a user based on their ISO Codes?
And how should I detect a website user's IS Code in the first place? Like I know there are these server variables that we use to detect Client IP and all (HTTP_FORWARDED_FOR, REMOTE_ADDRESS, etc) but information about them on the many sites that I have read has got me confused about what to use. Like some say there can be comma separated IPs returned by HTTP_FORWARDED_X and out of those IPs , one is not sure which is the real IP and which are the proxy addresses. Also, that all the IP addresses in returned can be fake.
How to I fetch the REAL IP Address of a person? Like I only want to know what country a particular person is sitting so I can redirect the user accordingly. Secondly lets say a person is sitting in US then I want the user to be redirected to [URL] If a person is visiting my site from Germany, [URL] is the address that I want the person to be redirected to.Also if DE is the ISO Code then I want my GermanMaster.master page to load and if its US then I want that the USMaster.master should load.
So how do I fetch a user's not fake IP address, redirect a user based on that ISO code and then load a master page according to the ISO Code.
How do I go about it? I haven't ever worked with Global.asax before so clueless how to go about it all.
I'm trying to install a 301 redirect where the instruction is as follows:
"In my Global.asax file (You can add this to your site from Visual Web Developer or Visual Studio by selecting File->New), In the Application_BeginRequest event, I added a call to the following code:"
The code is at bottom if needed. When it says "added a call to the following code:" does that mean something more than just putting the code inside the Application_BeginRequest section of my global.asax? For example, here's what that section looks like in my site:
