Is it possible to store session state for each separate user in a separate process? We have a COM component that we want to use that is not thread safe and has to be isolated. We would like to store this in a separate process for each user.
It seems that I am assigning to the session rather than comparing against. I want to compare it in the first peice of code but it seems that I am assigning to it. When the user first requests the page they are not a member.Heres my code:
If(Session("IsMember") = "True") then 'Do Nothing End if
'should still not be True
If(Session("IsMember") = "True") then Response.write("IS TRUE") End If
'Response.write is working telling me that the first part of the code assigned to the session
I hav developed web application using ASP.net 2.0 there are just 2 pages only. Both are works fine in visual studio. But same when i run on IIS 5.1 ....the page without session variable works fine.
But the page with...even the Sub() with session variable won't works.....even it automatically reaches the last sub of the program.
What are the changes i hav to do in IIS / application or web.config file.
we've just set up a subdomain,'demos' for one of our projects that normally works fine. on the login page, if the user enters the correct username/pw, we write session info and then response.redirect to the home page. this works for on the normal site, but session state info is dying on the demo subdomain.
i'm sure the session info is being written since i can see it when i response.write the value. also, the response.redirect uses a relative path, so it's not that we're accidentally changing domains.
We have an ASP site that uses a MySQL db backend. Usename/Password authentication is stored in db tables. We are currently using session variables as a means for validation when the user navigates to new pages. Generally speaking, all this does and has worked fine
The issue is with abandoned sessions. For instance..
Joe user clicks the [X] in the upper right hand container, closing out IE or firefox. IIS will not terminate the session for ~ 20minutes(default), leaving these resources unavaliable.
In our situation, (and possibly a different issue) unless the user clicks the [EXIT] button we've provided, not only does the session persist for 20 minutes, the login state saved in the MySQL table stays locked. Before the User can log back in, they need to call us to reset their state.
I'm looking for some kind of solution to address a user exiting the application abnormally. I am not sure of the correct procedural methodology, but I would think that some kind of process or event trigger would run in the background looking to cleanup stale sessions. Code:
I have a problem where the session state will not be enabled on the server. We are using Framework 1.1, a non-Sql Server database, and will be moving the application to a web farm in the future. Is there any way to keep the session state on a relational database that is not Sql Server? If so, how?
I was thinking about disabling session state on some of my pages by doing this: <% @ EnableSessionState = False %>
My question is if I disable the session state will the page still reset the session timeout (eg. back to 20min. default) when that page is loaded? I need it to reset the session timeout.
I'm looking for a working example on how to share session state between ASP and ASP.NET.The solution of Y Yeung of Microsoft seemed to be a good solution but I did not get the asp part working.Anybody tips, tricks, links ?
I have been storing an object as session variable, such as
set session("oRS") = Server.CreateObject("ADODB.Recordset")
The page then redirects to another page. i need to use this object on the called page, but i encounter an error saying 'User session has expired.' On checking with the code, it was found that the sesion variable has not maintained its state for object 'oRS'. Although, session for string type variable are maintained.
i have a form having hyperlink calling the same page.on click on hyperlink i am
submitting form "Onclick=dosubmit(form1);" dosubmit{ document.form1.submit(); } but i am not able to retain session data.how can i retain session data.
I will soon be undergoing a project where I will be migrating four to five web applications, developed in classic ASP, from a single Windows Server 2000 to a web farm that will utilize two, Windows 2003 Servers.
All of the applications utilize user/session management and I know that ASP's built-in session management cannot be carried across multiple servers.
I've been researching products available for purchase out there on the web, which allows you to include new code, which overrides ASP's built-in session management, by using a database to store sessions.
They all advertise that their solutions simply require just one line of code to be added to each ASP pages that uses Sessions, without any other changes to the existing ASP code.
Can someone who has done something similar advise on their experience? Is this really as easy as they are advertising, or are there other issues to take into consideration? Code:
We are running windows 2000 with dot.net framework 1.1 on IIS 5.1. This is an NLB architecture with the session being stored in an SQL DB. We have been coding and deploying using ASP.NET with no problems however the 'powers that be' have recently bought an online booking application which has been coded using classic asp.
We have set the session location in the machin config of the framework stating
mode="SQLServer". Will this ASP use this or continue to store the code InProc?
I am having trouble maintaining Session state between pages within my website. I had someone test the pages on their website and sessions state was maintained between pages, but for some reason, the same pages on my server do not. what might be happening?
I'm wanting to know how I can plug in a session state provider into ASP.NET. Currently you can use either the in-process, stateServer or SQL stores. Is the provider interface open and where is it documented? I've seen that Mono does provide their own state servers but I'm not sure if this is using standard provider interfaces.
I used KB 308150 as a guide to create a virtual directory shared by a few webstores that my company hosts. The virtual folder and websites reside on the same box. The shared directory includes code files used by all the webstores.
The problem - when a user adds items to the shopping cart, ***sometimes*** the session variables get reset and all cart information is lost. I can't consistently make the error occur - it seems to be random.
Also, if you have any different ideas on how to share code between many websites...I'm all ears.
wat i need to know urgently is whether Load Balancing will affect my session state for logging in. If it does affect, what should i do?
Currently, the Session("login") is set to false for not logged in and true for log in... pls help i need to know it urgently... in Global.asa its default is "false" Code:
At risk of being flamed for mentioning the N-word here ...
Has anybody yet cracked the knotty problem of sharing Session state between ASP and ASP.Net sites (within the same domain)?
Last time I looked, the two Session() mechanisms were totally divorced and separate, making step-by-step conversion of Session -dependent web sites from ASP to ASP.Net all but impossible.
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 want to maintain the user's session variable while moving from HTTP to HTTPS. I learned that you can store the sesison in a database, but I am not sure about the logic behind this method.Can someone explain how this works?
I've spent ages hunting for this but no joy, another user suggested cookies, but was ideally hoping to use Session Variables so its just stored while a user is on the site.
Basically I need to capture a section of a URL i.e.
www.myurl.com?ref=thisiswhatIneed!
I then need to simply save 'thisiswhatIneed' into a session variable and then enter it into a form box on another page (which I know how to do).
I just don't know how to get/store the part of the URL?
I'm wondering where the data is stored for Session objects. Is it passed to the browser, and then passed back to the server during page requests? Or, is the Session data always on the server, and the browser simply passes the server it's unique session id?
I know that cookies can store an array of values, which can be accessed like this:
tempid = Request("cookiename")(i)
Is it possible to use session variables in the same way? Store a array of values in the same session variable and access them on another page by indexing?
I've looked around alot and I've not found anything suggesting that this is possible.
Right now I'm using a single set of cookies to store info on a series of purchaces of the same type of item. I'm hoping to use session variables to replace the cookies.
Does anyone know for certain if this is not possible?
I'm using a session variable to store a log in so the user only has to log in once every time they come to the site for multiple features that require a password check.
What I'm doing is using one central login page that pops up when they click on whatever locked feature they're going for. The password form's action is back to this same page, which has this code towards the top: Code:
I currently am using a script which submits full state names to a payment processor. However, the payment processor only accepts 2 digit state names. Does anyone have a premade code for asp that converts state names into 2 digit ones. Code:
how can i pass state for each user through pages without using session,cookies,hidden form fields,querystring or database, which knowledge base article 175167 refers? i don't want to build a form with hidden fields and get it posted on the client. it seems possible using server variables, response.addheader method, but how can i use it?
I am learning asp.net using Zak Ruvalcaba's book from Sitepoint. When trying to do the example on application state from chapter 11, i get the following error:
Object reference not set to an instance of an object.
Is there any way a Form can be made automatically not retain its field values after it has been succcessfully posted in classical ASP. Something like the way ASP.Net can perform state management in postbacks automatically.
how to find all the cities in the US and relate them to their state? I want to have a drop down that goes from state to city. i.e. I choose Illinois from a drop-down, then the next drop-down is populated with all the cities in Illinois.
I have all the states in my db, but how would I go about finding all the cities? I have been googling this for awhile, but no luck. Is it an xml feed?
