Currently there is a web user that always gets an error on our application due to a missing session variable. All other session variables are still in tact, but this one seems to disappear and hence the user can no longer access everything on the site.
Any ideas as to where this value goes? I've checked my ASP code and saw nothing that would re-set this variable's value. Moreover, only a couple of users experience this problem.
I have created an asp page with a submit button in it. On the onclick event I have written a java script to open a new pop up window that does the file upload. Unfortunately, whenever I click on the submit button to pop up the new window,I lose session. Any clues on how to persist my session value.
View Replies View RelatedI recently upgraded my web server and SQL server to Windows Server 2003. I am running MS SQL 7.0 on the SQL Server. I had been running my application on Windows NT and experienced no issues for about 3 years. Now on the new servers I am getting multiple errors and I think I might be losing my session variables.
The errors I am getting are similar to errors I would get in NT when I was logged in to the app but inactive for a long period of time and attempted to resume work. Code:
I have been trying to solve this for some time now. I am setting a session variable to a value and calling response.redirect(). In the redirected page i am reading the session variable and it is blank. I printed the sessionid on both the pages to make sure that i have not lost the session itself.
The ids are the same on both the pages. It is just that all the session variable have becoce blank. I even looped through the session variables and all the session variables i created in the first page are present in the second page also, but without
their assigned values.
How can I resolve the issue of session variables losing information with IIS 4.0 and I.E. 5.0? I changed the regsitry setting Microsoft suggests but that did not work.
View Replies View Relatedwhat might be the reason for losing session variables, i was working on a page where i had to stroe a array in a session(trust me that was the only 'way' i could imagine doing it), and i am losing the session variable, its just returning empty values.
View Replies View RelatedMy ASP (VBScript) application is losing sessions after only moments of being logged in.
Sesssion.Auth is set at login - 'session("auth") = true' - and checked as each page loads with an if statement containing - 'AND not session("auth")'.
It is running on Windows Server 2003. The problem occurs only on the live site....the test site is on IIS 5.1.
The production system is running on NT. I have two test systems, one on 2000 server and one on XP Pro. All run IIS, server version depending on OS. All the pages check to make sure that the user logged on by checking the variable Session.Contents("LoggedIn").
One page changes directories: from https://<domain>/<virtual directory 1>/<virtual directory 2>/page.asp to https://<domain>/<virtual directory 1>/<virtual directory 3>/nextpage.asp.
It works fine in production. In both test systems the value of Session.Contents("LoggedIn") is lost and so the user is redirected to the login screen.
This has happened since I copied the production site to my test sites. Any ideas?

I have created a session variable.... and i have to write code to check for
this session for each ASP webpage in my website....Is there a alternative
I do not want to repeat the same code for valid session.... in each page..
I first create a session variable 'client' in the login.asp file
The login.asp file opens a file (xxx.asp) with an include file
If I write
<!--#include file="../../../data/" & session("client") &
"/language_ger.inc"-->
I have a message stating that the application can't find the file.
If I write the path without the variable (" & session("client") & ")
<!--#include file="../../../data/eurovini/language_ger.inc"-->
it works without any problem.
Question
- is there is an error in the syntax?
- is it possible to include this kind of variable in an include file.
And if not, any idea to get the same result?
I'm new and I hope I explain this correctly.I have a products page which populate products dynamically with checkboxes. when the form is submitted, I check for selected boxes using the split(). My problem is, products page submits the form to client.asp, and within that page is client info. then the client page is submitted to confirmOrders.asp, which will display client info, and products selected. the split() works fine within the client.asp page. I'm trying to assign the checkboxs to a Session variable and use it on confirmOrder.asp. Then display the session variable on confirmOrders.asp page. I know I can do everything in one shot with confirmOrders.asp, but the client wants to display the client.asp page then the latter. hmm...hope this makes sense.
<client.asp>
Session("myarray") = Request.Form("chkproduct")
<orderConfirm.asp>
strP = Session("myarray")
p_Array = Split(strP,",")
For i = 0 to UBound(p_Array)
Response.Write p_Array(i) & "<br>"

Is there a simple way to store session variable on the client-side

I want to keep the value of user entry on the text field of an html form

How do I make the "nameVal" as Session variable?
Quit simple: I try to make a session variable on a hiddenframe like:
document.contexthiddenform.URLattach.value = URLvar;
document.contexthiddenform.target = 'hiddenframe';
document.contexthiddenform.action = 'context_hiddenframe.asp';
document.contexthiddenform.submit();
}
</script>
<%
session("sesURLattach") = Request("URLattach")
Response.Write "<script>" & vbcrlf
Response.Write "alert('" & session("sesURLattach") & "');" & vbcrlf
Response.Write "alert('" & Session.Timeout & "');" & vbcrlf
Response.Write "</script>" & vbcrlf
%>
</form>
The value of session variable is shown and the timeout value (60) shown as well. But immediately I get the error message "a timeout has been occurred, you have to log in again". If I make the highlighted sentence comment then I don't get the error.
Has somebody an idea why I receive immediately the timeout error?
A user field called 'Custom1' exists in my data base. This user field is used to hold a URL path to a custom download page for clients. Each client has their own unique URL which directs them to specific locations.What would the proper format be for the variable:
=Session("Cutstom1")
to be able to be displayed as a hyperlink with the label: "DOWNLOADS" while at the same time sending the current user to the 'value' / 'path' to which the Custom1 field contains? I am not an advanced coder and am just starting out with basics.
I assume that mostly,asp programmers use their own session variable to know whether a user is to be considered is-logged-on(together with a home-written log-on form web page).
However, I wonder if there is a convention for the name of such a variable?And does asp/iis have a built-in is-logged-on status variable? For example when IIS is to render a normal html page with an acl that invokes a basic authentication, can I as an asp programmer make use of that status variable, and can I write to it to force a logout programatically?
So, this is not about it there is a session as such, it is about beeing logge-on inside an asp-session. I've looked around but haven't found any good info on this.
I have drop down for selection of council - it is then passed to a session variable - it works fine to display the variable, but when I put it into a hidden field, if the value was Milwaukee it is fine, but if the value was Green Hills, it only puts Green in the hidden field. How can I fix this - I need it to put Green Hills in the hidden field.

I have just moved to another isp host and some of my pages use session variables. I have a session variable, amongst others that hold the username and customer number to display data. The session variable value keeps disappearing giving me ADODB.Fielderror '800a0bcd' errors.
If i hot the refresh button a few times the session variable data comes back. Somebody please tell me they've experienced this 'cos i'm losing my mind ! I've updated the page to show the variable, and it does and i've removed underscores from filenames (apparently a possible problem with IIS 6)
i'm using the dundas freelib upload code to upload files in my website. when the user choses to upload a file a new window is opened and the upload procedure goes fine and the file is uploaded successfully. but the problem is the i want to know the name of the file in the parent window to save it in the database.
i tried to use a session variable which contains the name of the file but it dosen't work. the parent window contains a form which is used to insert new data in the database so i can't use the upload window to insert the filename in the database.
i don't know how to retreive the session variable from the previious page..i have also problem querystring application because the browser execute very slowly..and sometimes page will not be displayed.
View Replies View RelatedI need to create an array with a session variable. According to my book, the following should work,. but if fails

I am storing my site name as a variable in global.asa. I am trying to retrieve it and use it in a page title. The following is what I am using.

I have a declared a session variable array. I want to create an array in my client side vbscript with the same values. I know you can set an array in server side script equal to the session variable array.
Ex.
AryDocCache() = Session("DocCache")
How do you set an array in client side script equal to the session variable array?
I know this does not work.
AryDocCache()= <%=Session ("DocCache")%>
