State Management :: Session Time Out - Redirect Page To Default
Feb 21, 2011
I'm using sessions to track user name. I assign Session["userName"] in my login procedure. The sessionn gets timeout in about 15 minutes. What I need to do is, if the session timeouts I need to redirect the page to the Default.aspx page.
How can I do this? Any code example would be great.
I have one website in which there is one page along with one ascx as registered into it. In the ascx where user can add some order details and click on "Make Payment" button, then there are following 2 cases...Case I: If user was not logged in, then a modal popup will open which has login ascx with 2 buttons Register & Login. In this case user either Login or Register and continue with "Make Payment".
By default when the Session ends then the End-User should be directs to the login page and logs in again. Is there any way to open the login page in a new page rather than opening it in the same page(upon Session time out)?
Here is my scenario.In default.aspx page user selects the country, state, city from drop down list, and store them in cache for further use. but when other user open the web site from other computer it shows the same country, state, and city selected by user 1. Is there any problem related to cache? I have stored data as following.
cache["ctryID"] = ctryID;
cache["stateID"]= stateID;
cache["cityID"]= cityID;
I want to show default country, state , city at page load of default.aspx
i want to know how i can ReNew The Life Time Of Page.User.Identity.UserId Session, , how i can increase the Time Of this session ??
i want this scenario in case when the user LogOn for 15 minutes , then the page refreshed ,then renew the TimeOut Of Session by adding addtional 15 minutes and so on
note that im using Page.User.Identity.UserId Session
If you do not configure Session State in the Web.config what is the default? I understand it would read the Machine.config, but if that is not configured, then what is the default? In Proc with cookies?
I'm still debugging my application so it's on the local server. As I debug and stop then debug again, eventually lblNoOfUsers.text turns to "0" instead of "1", even as I'm navigating my application. It only turns to "1" again if I log out and sign back in. It's almost as though Membership.GetNumberOfUsersOnline my login are referencing two different session states. How is this possible? Does asp.net create a new session state cookie each time I start debugging?
In certain pages when i try to rediect to a perticular page the Session automaically gets assigned to null, have no idea why is this happening.-No where I'm using Session.Remove or Session.RemoveAll.-Also not even using EnableSessionState="true" or "false" as by default it will always be true, I know...
I have an issue of losing an InProc session variable when I call Response.redirect. I have seen a number of posts related to this, but haven't found a solution. My code is essentially:
When I try to read Session("MyVariable") on the NewUrl.aspx page, it doesn't exists.
What's odd is that this doesn't typically happen in my local environemnt, but hapens quite often, if not all the time, on the shared server this application resides on. I saw some info about web farms and load balancing which could cause an issue. I am fairly certain this app is not part of a web farm.
A little background, in case there is a better method than using Session State...
I have created the ability for an administrator of this applicationto log in as any other user using a "Skeleton Key" password. When the admin does this, I store a boolean in session which refers to the fact that they are logged in and "Impersonating' another user. This gives the admin additional access that the user would not normally have. Anyhow, that is why I store a sessoin variable.
is my session related tag in web.config file but most of the time if i idle 20 minutes then its automatically timedout and went to my login page, is there any solution ?
I am creating web application. In that I want to set session timeout (not idle timeout). If a user logged in that time the session time will start and it automatically should detect session timeout the page should redirect to another page. How can I acheive this.
is it possible to create a new Session Id using C# and without using a Response.Redirect(...Page ... ). I want to create a new session Id on page load.
Reasons for doing so:
I have a testing application that creates IFrames to act as users. the problem I have is that with Multiple Instances (or Multiple IFrames running the same application "Default.aspx") all IFrame's are using the Same Session ID. I have variables stored in the Session ID that I need to be seperated from IFrame to IFrame. Ex:
IFrame 1 gets passed a query string of a client ID "1" IFrame 2 gets passed a query string of client ID "2"
WHen the IFrame 2 gets loaded the session state of IFrame 1 inherits the IFrame 2's session's making the Client ID in Session 1 = "2". See what I am getting at?
I want to be able to have each IFrame create its own Session State. I guess there is 2 questions to this, 1.) is it possible to create a new Session State by abandoning the original and by doing so will that abandon both session ID's and just create an ID for both IFrames being the same ID? 2.) How can I do this if it is possible :-)
This is weird. In my newly developed chat application, when I invoke Response.Redirect, I am losing my session data. What is particualrly odd is that this sometimes seems to occur after a slight delay, so I reach the page, and then the session info gets lost momentarily thereafter. Mostly though it seems to get lost immediately. I have of course googled this issue, but yet to find anything that speaks to my problem. SessionState is in InProc mode. Session state has been working fine for me until this unexpected problem, so everything is configured right. So far the only workaround I can think of is to use a link instead of a button, and use javascript to call a server-side function on onclick to do the work I need to do before the link gets invoked. Messy, and I'd rather not go that way unless there's no alternative.
Just to preempt one red herring, I do use Response.Redirect(<address>, false).
The problem occurs both on the testing and production servers. I'm running ASP.NET 3.5 on IIS7.
We have a web app running .net 1.1 that users must login to access (uses FormsAuthentication). At one point, the user submits a form that is handled by a separate web app on the same website but in a different directory (running .net 2.0 and not requiring authentication). When the user submits the form and is redirected to this other page they have some options including returning to the previous web app.
We need our users to stay logged in to the first web app so they do not have to log in again when returning. This works fine on 3 out of four computers, but the fourth computer is asked to log in when they hit the return button (by reviewing the active cookies we see that when it returns to the original web app, the FormsAuthentication cookie is missing)
why this cookie would disappear on one machine but not the others? I am going through IE settings now but the machine has the problem in IE and Chrome (not sure if this would be a shared setting) If it is an IE setting is there a way to make this work without requiring the user to change their settings and without switching to cookieless sessions?
Here is the authentication part of web.config
[Code]....
And if it makes a difference, the redirect and form action property use a the full path, would using a relative path likely change anything?
I have developed application in ASP.NET and placed on UAT server (windows XP IIS) where it worked fine but since I moved on production server (windows 2003 + IIS) after sometime its keep on expiring the session.
Please suggest urgently if possible how i can make it not to expire session at all.
I want to be able to detect from C# code how long ago a user logged into the site. I need to take a particular action if it is their first time logging in. IsNewSession does not work, unfortunately.
I set session timeout is 30 at my webconfig. But when i upload a file and click submit button already session timeout. I uploaded 1kb file. I can submit 1 time.
