I'm using asp.net 4.0 with asp.net MVC 2.0 and the asp.net membership provider.
I need to terminate a the user session before I delete it. Otherwise if the user is still authenticated the next time it will visit a page null reference exceptions will occur when trying to access the user data and profile.
I get the Session.Abandon() method but what I'm looking for is the same on a user, something like user.AbandonSessions().
I have several pages in my application. I have used a session variable called "Session["Variable"]" that is set in page1 and page2. That means The scope should be in page1 and page2. If you go out any of these page will clear the above session variable. Is there any solution to clear the particular session varible in the application level. i.e i don't want to write the code for each and every pages...
on the click of logout_linkbutton.but when i click back button in browser its go back to previous page. But when i click on any control it will redirected to Default.aspx.
I have created a website. I login with username and password and after authenticating i redirect the user to Home Page. When the user clicks Logout, they are redirected to the Login Page. But after this when i click the BACK button on the browser, it again goes back to the Home Page with that user's login credentials. I have used Session["username"]=null in the Page_Load function of Home Page. How to avoid going back to the Home Page when the BACK button is clicked by the User??
it is possible to change dynamically the session time for currently logged user. I'm communicating with a WebService which does a long-running task, and while the it sends the final response, I don't want the user to be logged out.
I have written custom code for login and logout...When use clicks on logout button the current session is closed and user is redirected to a login.aspx page...The problem is that when a user click a back button on internet explorer it the previous page he was navigating is shown to him...(altough he cant perform any operation as session is null and their is condition in page load that if session is null user should be redirected to login page)May i have to clear cache of client ??
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; } }
I would like to check if someone tries to access the application with the same username from a different browser/pc/etc. All usernames and passwords are stored in a MSSQL db.
What I am doing at the moment is: In the global.asax-file in Application_start(..) I initialize [Code]....
Now with every user that logs in I can check whether he is allready in ( in that case, he won't be able to log in, he'll be redirected to the login page ). Let's say it's the same user who wants to login but for some reason he wants to start the application from a different pc, maybe in a different building. Unless he hasn't forget to logout, he won't be able to login on this different computer. So he would has to go back and logout or wait for the timeout.
Now wouldn't it be more convenient to abandon the first session and let the same user login to the pc where he is right now?
The question is, is it possible to end the first session without beeing in it? Or is there any other solution for that problem? Since I have the SessionID stored in Application["UserList"] is there any possibility to end that specific session?
get the below error. My application was working fine until I probably modified something, but don't know what.

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).
I am trying to write a code that I can attach to a .aspx page using <!--#include file="newcode.aspx"-->. What I am trying to do is check to see if they have an current or active session and redirect them if they don't. It seems like this should be pretty simple, but I have not been able to get anything to work. This is only being used on One page. What I have tried is:
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 ?
I have a section in my web app that displays the user's name, the current datetime and a logout link. What i would also like to display is the time left for the session.Is this possible? I'm using an ajax timer to give the user the real time, so if i could display also the time that is left for the session to end would be great.
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
I would like to pop up a box that warns the user of session timing out in 5 minutes. There are lots of examples of this on the net and I can figure something out. My question however is how to get the time remaining.All examples I read about set a client side timer to countdown from last postback. I would like to do something different. I would like to make an AJAX call to the server and get the time remaining from the server. Is this possible?Since an AJAX call will not reset the session timeout timer can I read the number and send it back to the client?
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:
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.
In my website I am maintaining log of users in which I am storing some user's information such as user machine IP umber,SessionId,UserName etc.and able to show the list of current and past users in webpage. I want to share and connect to browser session of any of the current users. Is it possible,if yes then how?
