What could the likely cause of a session value being lost when one navigates
to another page and attempts to write that session out:
Page 1
session("u_name") = oRS.fields("u_name")
Navigate to Page 2
Response.write Session("u_name")
....."_name" seems to be empty on Page 2.
What am I doing wrong here?
I have a website that has a asp secured members only aria that keeps session variables to check if someone is logged in or not (if session variables are not there then redirect to logon screen) but I also have non members aria and I need a way of asking the user if they want to move away from the members only area or go back to it. I have used an asp to find out if the page is a non member page and if there is a session variable there.
If there is a session variable and is a non member page then I use JavaScript to bring up a confirm box that if the cancel button is pressed then it goes back a page. The problem is that when you go back a page the session variable gets lost. Dose anyone know how to solve this problem or a better way of doing this?
my site apears to be loosing its session variable because it uses dynamically created absolute links. but because the user could have entered the site using any of 4 domains the links might change the domain.
So the user sees no difference but the cart has lost its session. firstly, is this possible? Secondly can I determin the url used to find the site and use that in the dynamic links?
I allways loose the Sessionvariables in my asp-pages (I'm using IIS5.0 with
Visual Interdev 6.0).
For Example: when i create a startpage.asp, and type > Session("PersonalNr")
= 456 < he cant remember this value on another page.
when i query this value (for example in endpage.asp):
Response.Write(Session(("PersonalNr")), i get the value 0, because the
session will be restarted (The function "Session_OnStart" will be called
again in the global.asa file)
Does anyone know why ?
I have a problem with my asp code on an iis 6.0 server on windows 2003
web. When I redirect between to asp pages on my web-site, where pageA is
in a different virtual directory from pageB the session variables value
a lost. I know that it is the session ID there increases. (New session).
If I make the same call in the same virtual directory the session
variables is not lost. Is it some thing about different application
pools? If sow, how can I join two or more application pools regarding
to session variables? If not is there a none coding work around.
I have a project in which I'm trying to embed one site, that uses
session stored variables, inside an IFRAME in another site (which for
that matter doesn't even use sessions).
Problem is, that it doesn't always save the session. When I try to
access it from some computers, I have no problem, the session variable
is stored and I can browse the site in the IFRAME and everything's ok,
but on other computers, the session variable value simply disappears.
To simulate the situation, assume that the two following html trees are
the site that goes into the IFRAME: Code:
currently i working on project in asp, i done everything in my own company server and eveyrthing works fine, when i migrate to customer place server, eveyrthing also working fine, but the only thing doesnt work is session variable, i totally cant get my session variable in the customer place's server. Server in my company and my client is the same, window 2003 server, iis 6.
View Replies View RelatedIs there any way in ASP to catch a destroyed session when the user closes their window.
Example.
When a user enters a page, I create a session - Session("blah")="blah" . However when the window is closed, the session is destroyed, but before it's being destroyed, I want to some things.
I have an mypage.asp page with a button, one can access this page only
if
Session("smth") = 1.
There is also an empty iframe in this page (src is not specified).
When I click the button I will fill the iframe with a page (src =
'another.asp').
For security reasons I check the login session in another.asp and
Session("smth") is empty no matter I have logged before.
In mypage.asp Session("smth") is still on and its value is 1 but it
looks like it gets lost in the iframe.
Any idea why and how to fix this issue?
To better manage our secure site we just separated the registration and
checkout sections of our web into separate virtual directories. These new
virtual directories are on the same server as the primary eCommerce website.
This is an ASP site (not asp.net). When this version goes into production it
will be on a 2003 server (IIS 6) with a SQL Server backend (located on a
different server).
Now when the main server passes control to one of the new virtual webs the
session information is lost. I'm having problems finding information on the
web as to how to maintain this information between the web and virtual
directories. It's imperative that this information remain secure so query
strings or anything that would pass visible data is not an option.
I have a normal login page that (upon clicking submit) checks whether you are part of a particular office and then redirects the user to their particular office's webserver.
The problem i am having is that when i redirect a user, to a securewelcome page, they lose their session variables causing them to have to login again. What am i doing wrong to make these variables get lost in the redirect? Is it because i am redirecting to a different webserver?
I have built a site that works/worked absolutely fine on my test server. When I transferred it to a remote web host (the intended permanent home of the site) something very worrying keeps happening to my site.
I use, as is the norm, session variables to store login information. At the top of each page I do a check that Session("isLoggedIn") = "True", and if not then the system logs them back out.
The serious problem is that once you have logged into the site, the next page you try to open it fails the above check and logs you out! Obviously Session("isLoggedIn") is not equal to "True" so it assumes you aren't logged in. So basically the session variables are getting lost/cleared. This makes my site unusable, and is a disaster for it unless I can get a solution.
if a URL is
https://www.mysite.com/mypage.asp
clients are redirected to
http://www.mysite.com/mypage.asp
This works fine for all but 1 client. He looses a session during the
redirect. Apparently his browser interprets https:// and http:// as
different domains.
Windows 2000 Server SP3

Scenario:
Web site accessed by multiple users at the same time. Some user data are
stored in a session variables. Randomly one user view data of another
user.
It ocurrs in two different machines.
What can be?
I have a web site where once a user has logged on I store their MemberID in a global variable in the global.asa file.
Then in other pages I find out which member I am dealing with by looking at this variable, ie:
<%
Private lgMemberID
lgMemberID = Session.Contents("MemberID")
%>
I then use this variable to query a database... Code:
My ASP page 1 redirect user to third party's website,
after the process at third party is finished, in 3rd
party's page, there is one link to route user back to my
website: ASP page2.
As the user do all of these actions in the same browser, I
expect the user's session variables to be kept, But the
seesion variable are lost.
I have page for user to update his/her details. What i want is after idle for more than 20 mins, the page will redirect to login page automatically. So that the user knows that his/her session already expired and need to login again.
But it doesn't working. This is because if he/she update the details (after idle more than 20 mins), and click the Submit button, it will go to login page and all the data will be lost. Code:
I've got two sites, on the same server, with the same pages (ones for test,
ones live) the only dif that I can find is the global.asa has different db
strings.
The sites (that I didn't write) are using javascript (not jscript,
javascript) as their ASP serverside language.
The sites login, set some session values, then redirect to a .htm that
builds a frameset and loads some pages. This redirect is losing all the set
session values on only ONE of the sites. Any ideas where to start?
In my access database i have 2 tables called seceret question and secret answer. I would like to provide users with thier passwords without using emails. There would be a screen where they can enter thier username, secret answer then thier password will be displayed on the screen. Or alternatively they could just enter thier username and thier password
View Replies View RelatedI have pg1 sending 6 vars to page2. Page2 uses the 6 vars to pull from an access database the fields of a specific tbl. under the sql stmt a function displays the records with headers, which will be sortable and pgable.
Problem is this. The initial load is fine with sortable hdrs and pgable pgs. BUT when the user clicks on any header to sort or next pg, then the vars are lost and the sql stmt is emptied.
Is there a way to hold the vars, or convert them easily to a hardcode type string?
1. A Form which is a drop down menu, posts selected value to the same page.
2. This page connects to a database and depending on the selection from the form. the results are displayed for that selection.
3. This page needs to refresh to pull updated data from the data base.
Heres the problem..
I have the form and page pulling the correct information and displaying it on the page, but when the page does a refresh the value selected from the form is lost and then no results will show.
We're experiencing random user sessions losses on our web applications,
and are researching for any useful information which may shed light on
this problem.
Environment:
In our company, we're developing a web product based on ASP.NET 2.0, in
conjunction with Oracle database over ADO.NET and external COM objects
running on the server, interacting with the database, and with external
modules.
Our servers are Windows Server 2003, running IIS 6.0, with all the
latest patches and updates provided by Microsoft. Web application on
the server is a precompiled version of our web solution. Code:
I'm having trouble with the workflow described bellow:
1. Asp page 1 on server A contains an iframe.
2. Asp page 1 submits a form targeted to the iframe, to Asp page 2 on
server B.
3. Asp page 2 runs in the iframe and at some point might decide to submit a
form targeted to the _top frame, to page 3 on Server B.
4. Page 3 loads in the top frame. Code:
I've made a form that works almost correctly. Problem is that When You fill
in a form and push on preview, you see the information you've filled in. Now
in this page (preview page) I made a few hidden fields with all information
to send it further. Now in the result page I don't see all the information
I've typed before on the form. Especcially the text or number after a
(non breaking space.) It is just lost. Why???

View Replies View RelatedI recently bought a new web server and am in the process of migrating
all of our websites over. We're going from Windows 2000 IIS 5.0 to
Windows 2003 IIS 6.0.
I've been able to get everything to work
correctly except for the SessionID's. For some reason I'm getting a
new SessionID on EVERY single page that I visit! Which makes it quite
difficult to login and add items to your cart...hehe.
Everything is running ASP, there is no ASP.NET pages, I don't even have
the 1.0 or the 2.0 Framework installed on the server yet. I verified
that the Globals.asa is on the server on and config'ed correctly.
I have an index page containing several IFRAMES that hold a couple of apps which require logins. To avoid having to login 3 or 4 times when the index page first loads, I had the IFRAMES load a page with a link to click to actually go to the page requiring login. The issue I have is that after you've logged in to a couple of these pages, when you refresh the index page, all the IFRAMES go back to the link page.
You don't have to log in again, but this makes you have to click the link again. What I'd like is a way to only show the link page the first time the index page loads it up, but after you've clicked on the link once and logged in, then the next time the index refreshes, you skip the link page and go straight to the app.

I have "DataEntrypage.asp" which is a data entry page(about 250
data elements includes text boxes, radio buttons, check boxes, drop down
boxes etc).
After the data validation through javascript(form.action =
"ProcessData.asp" )I post this page to "ProcessData.asp" which process all
the database transactions like updates, deletes and inserts.
At the begining/top of the "ProcessData.asp" I loop through
Request.Form collection and store them in a text file on the WEB SERVER.
Once in a while the whole Request.Form collection is disappearing in
the text file. At that instances it is creating the text file with size of
1kb but it is not
showing any thing in the file.
I checked and it is not loosing the session information.
my problem is that i load an xml file (which displayed well in iexplorer standalone) with an asp file, and the page displays o instead of ő, u instead of ű, so my central european characters are changed. the xml well formed, and well encoded. i hope ;)

I am currently working on an online shopping cart. The working is like:-
1. First the user selects the things.
2. Next page is the detail of the things that he has selected.
Now the third page allows the user to check his address..but before that he has to log in(if he is not logged in). and after logging in he must be redirected to the checkaddress page with his details intact.
i'm developing a site but i'm still new to ASP..i could only
code a simple DB [add/edit/remove] coding..
i need to creat accounts for users, so i must have a LOGIN page
contains all the standard such as: Logout, register new user,remember password ,,
users who should register in my site , are previously stored in DB by a KEY field..not to allow any user to register..a new user should only insert that key,if it is exist in my record,i shall allow him to view some pages.
Our asp programs seem to have different behaviors when users use IE and firefox. One of most annoying things is the data disappearing problem in IE but not in firefox.(Note: Sometimes a search program can run much faster in Firefox than in IE, don't know why)
For example, I have an internal user interface which they can do different product data
entry, the program will use Server.Transfer to different asp program for data entry.
Page1---UserInterface.asp
Select Case Request("Product")
Case "Sel"
Server.transfer("/Virtualdir1/test1.asp ")
Server.Transfer("/Virtualdir2/Test2.asp")
Case "Bear"
Server.Transfer("/Virtualdir3/test3.asp")
Case "IMED"
Server.Transfer("test4.asp")
Case "AC"
Server.Transfer("/Virtualdir4/test5.asp")
Case Else
End Select
When user finished data entry on test1.asp(second page, the web address will still show UserInterface.asp page as you know), click continue, on the third page if they found something typed wrong, if they click back button in the broswer, all data on the second page is gone. This only occurrs in IE, Firefox is fine.
It's very annoying, how can I fix it, if not, is there any other way?
I'm using the MSXML.XMLHTTP object to obtain the results of an ASP page from
an ASP page on the same server. The problem I have is that when the AP
refrenced by the XMLHTTP object is run it does now share the session with
the calling page ? How can I solve this ?
