I recently moved an application from W2K / IIS5 to W2K3 / IIS6.
In the new environment user sessions expire after 2-3 minutes? I can't
find any solution to this, although I found quite a few references to
this problem on the web.
After moving my application from W2K / IIS5 to W2K3 / II6 the application works pefrectly BUT the user session expire prematurely (after about 2 mins) rendering the application unusable.
View Replies View RelatedI have a form which sibmits data to another page. Trouble is when the user
refreshes the page it resubmits all the data again.
Is there anyway to expire the page immediatly so this cant happen?
When I set a session to expiry in say 20 minutes, the session will only last about a minute. I looked at pretty much everything, but can not find the reason
Code used to set sessions:
Code:
Session.Timeout = 25
Session("NAME") = NAME
how to expire a page, because when i press the back button the previous page still shows up.
View Replies View Relatedcan cookies be set to expire like the session.timeout?
View Replies View RelatedI want to know how do I set the expiration date of a cookie to a future date. Like I know that its likeCode:
Response.Cookies("hi").Expires = date
But the question is how do I set the date??
1.Want to expire or time out asp pages and have them automatically log user out and clear all sessions.
2. Log out gracefully.My current logout is a 2 step process that click logout on the menu, then the user get a message
that they need to either choose to log in again or close browser.I do have a simple Session.Abandon and a prayer that they don't use the BACK button.If the user does use the back button,everything is back like they never even logged out.
i am getting into a problem: i have the following code at the top of the page
Response.Expires = -1000;
Response.AddHeader("Pragma", "no-cache");
Response.AddHeader("CacheControl", "private");
Response.CacheControl = "no-cache";
Now when some one click on the page and go to page 2 and then click browser back button to come back to page 1, i want the page to expire. I want the user to click the link from page 2 to go back to page 1 and not the browser back button. IT is not happening.
Why doesn't Session_OnEnd detect when the user closes the browser window. I have a .log file where i record the user information when he clicks logout button. But when the user closes the window, my code does not record the log. It looks like the Session_OnEnd is not fired atall.
I did google on this and found solution's using Javascript. Is there a way to resolve this issue other than using some client-side like Javascript. Isn't there any Vbscript to do this.
i am making a quiz program. User answers a question, clicks next, and new question aperas. i want that user cannot answer one question twice. but user can click browser back button to go back and re-answer the previous question. I want that user, cannot go on the previous page.
View Replies View RelatedI have added this like of code I found on an ASP book:
<% Session.Timeout = 30 %>
My understanding of this code is that if the user leaves the page on idle for more than 30 minutes, it will automatically close the session, and if they decide to continue using the site, then it will automatically send them to the login page so that they can log on again. Is that right? Code:
If I start a session on our web app then close all browsers, I expect that
the session cookie would be deleted and that the session itself would exist
until it expired. I then start a new instance of the browser expecting to
get a new session id and a new session, but instead I reconnect to the
unexpired session. Does anyone know why the session cookie is persisting
despite the closure of all the IE windows?
This is a strange thing. My Session object is expiring when the page is refreshed.This is happening in just one partiular page. Rest of the pages are working fine

Echo important variables as you go along to make sure they are getting set as you expect: what is the "query" variable, is it the string you are expecting?
Response.Write "inside Database Recordset Loop, query has a value of" & query & "<br />" & VbCrLf
If not, echo each of the three pieces and see if one or more is not getting passed from the form.
I don't understand the
Call data.MoveNext()
Wend
Call data.Close()
Call objConn.Close()
part at all, what are you trying to do here?
Use flags along the way, to signal how far you get, like echoing when you enter and after you leave key loops or control structures:
Response.Write "inside Database Query Section<br />" & VbCrLf
Response.Write "inside Database Recordset Loop<br />" & VbCrLf
Response.Write "Database Connection just closed successfully<br />" & VbCrLf
etc. etc.
I have a password protected website. I save the user's permission information in a session variable. I'm trying to extend the life of the session variable beyond 20 minutes, but it's not working. At first I tried putting the code in the global.asa file, but when that didn't work, I put it at the top of the page.
Session.Timeout=60
When I refresh the page after 30 minutes, the session variable has expired.
I am using TinyMCE WYSWIG editor in a CMS built in ASP. Now whenever I try to insert an Image Into the WYSWIG editor, the Session variable used in the Page is getting Expired. can someone tell me how this can be solved.
View Replies View RelatedWe are planning to set-up a load balanced web environment. Accordingly, we are going to change the session management on our website from the classic ASP Session State and session variables, to a database method.
Does any one have any pointers as to how I might approach this, so that I can have the same sort of functionality the ASP sessions give without having to create database columns for each session variable I wish to create. I am thinking along the lines of some serialised dictionary or something that I can stick in a blob column.
Can someone explain to me how you set a session and how you check the session?

I have session time by default as 20 mints in iis.
I want to that to be increased by 60 mints in my application so that when user save changes after 21st mint the session should not be lost.
Can this be happen without changing the default time in iis since i have many other applications.
Any one know how to end all the session in asp application. Is there any other directive rather than '#include' to include a file in our Asp page.
View Replies View RelatedI was wanting to know if you could have a function within a session?Example:
Code:
<% Session("Message") = MyFunction() %>
Is that possible? Ok, maybe not "is it possible" but can you use the session message to dictate where the function outputs its data? Here's why I'm asking. I have an online testing app that when a person selects the wrong answer the correct answer (along with a bunch of other stuff) will be displayed on the page.
I'm getting it to display the correct answer and the other information, but the correct answer is at the top of the page screwing up my layout and the other information is doing what it should.
I am using an HTTPS connection and posting to an asp page that does a
redirect based on if the user is authenticated.
However, for some reason after the session is set and the user redirect

Any ideas?
The redirect looks like Response.Redirect "../welcome.asp".
I am using ServerXmlHttp in a client-side component to basically talk back to the Server within a webpage. I would like to be able to cache some information on the server so that when I callback, I do not have to reconstitue everything that I did for the intial request. However, the Sessions are different.
Is there a way to get the ServerXmlHttp session to impersonate the IE client session? Code:

View Replies View RelatedI'm trying to use a couple of Session variables within SSL.
My form submits to the same page and this is at the top of the page.
<%

The form fields are populated but the Sessions are empty on my next page.
Am I missing something? Is there a problem with Sessions and SSL?
I've just created a simple form that writes information to an
Access database using ASP. Everything works fine. My question is, would
there be any reason to use the session object other than for tracking
purposes.
Specifically, does a session have any inportance on multiple
users accessing pages and submitting the form inforamtion to the database.
I was curious about errors to the database with multiple users submitting at
the same time to the database. This is a small scale application and not
expected to have large number of hits. As stated I'm new to using ASP and
just wanted to get some input.
I have used SESSIONS on mission critical pages on my site, and if sessions are not enabled / supoorted - these pages will fail. When and why would a session fail? They do not store any info client side,and rely on the server to store session objects in memory, am I correct? Would security settings or privacy controls ever stop sessions working? Which "popular" browsers dont support sessions?
View Replies View RelatedAre sessions stored on the server or the visitors PC?
