i want to increase my session time so that it does not expire till the user closes the site.
i have written in global.asa file the following code:
<SCRIPT LANGUAGE="VBScript" RUNAT="Server">
Sub Session_OnStart
Session.Timeout = -1
End Sub
</script>
but it doesnt work and my sesion still expires.
set Server.ScriptTimeout variable to 214783647. it's maximum timeout value. insert the following sentence at start line of your asp file.
<%
Server.ScriptTimeout=2147483647
%>
I have an asp application. However, the scripting time is too early too expried. How can I extend the scripting time for an individual asp page, or set for one website.
View Replies View RelatedI want to make a log file in which only a date and time are written, when a certain page is visited.
Most scripts and tutorials explain only about how to read a file, and how to write a file.. not on how to write a line at the end of a file(or beginning). I tried the following, but this does not work: Code:

I am trying to write a sub that will delete a spreadsheet file created by the web user. THis is the code I have inserted into the global.asa file, but it is not working.

View Replies View RelatedI was wondering if anyone knows how to get the current time of the user's timezone in an asp page. Currently I am trying to do some frequency capping in an advertising system i am working on and i want a cookie to expire at the end of the day, in Pacific Standard time.
What is happening now is the cookie is expiring whenever the day ends on the users computer, but i want it to expire when the day ends in our time zone. Any ideas on hwo to do this?? Is there a function i can call to get the users current time based on their timezone?
understand that when one closes the browser, the session gets killed in ASP,
i encountered a scenario, where even after the browser was closed, the session was active, let me explain, i have written a code to check if the session variable contains the loginname then i am allowing access to a certain asp page to the user.
the code worked. thereafter i closed the browser, opened the browser again and accessed the same url, surprisingly it allowed access to the page and did not ask me for the login name, clearing the cache also did not help.
Further, I need to update some table as well when the user closes his browser window (an update query to set the flag to 0 for tracking user status). How can I do this. A sample code will be highly appreciated.!
Lastly, when the user clicks the logoff button, he successfully logout , but he can come back with the back button on the browser. Is there a way to prevent this,that is, once the user logout and tries to come back, he SHOULD NOT be allowed to do so rather he should be redirected to a page where he can login again.
Session expiring immediately. what could be the reason ?

View Replies View Relatedi have 2 application variables called totalAdminLoggedIn and totalUserLoggedIn
when ever an admin login, I increment the totalAdminLoggedIn value by one
and when a normal user logg in, the totalUserLoggedIn value will be incremented by one.
how can i change the values when the session expire ? i can reduce the value manually when they logoff like:
if session("userCategory")="admin" then
Application("totalAdminLoggedIn")=Application("totalAdminLoggedIN")-1
elseif session("userCategory")="user" then
Application("totalUserLoggedIn")=Application("totalUserLoggedIn")-1
end if
session.contents.remove "userCategory"
but what if the session expires automatically or if they close the window suddenly?

hi im trying to make a cookie behave like a session so every time i load or reload the page it gives him this line:
Response.Cookies("name").Expires = Now() + 0.015
but its not working..
if i load the page at 10:00 the cookie expires at 10:20
even though i reload the page at 10:10
what can i do? or those a cookie expires can only be set once?
I have a table called products, which has the fields productid, productname, description, unitprice, and etc.

Trying to do a dynamic list box. I have to use response.write to create it since the number of option values changes. Im trying to make it so when you select something the onchange submits the form to retotal all the values on the page.

where do you have to place your global.asa file in order for your session variables to work? If i dont have access to the root (not my server, a remote one), is there any way i can specify a path to my global.asa?
View Replies View RelatedI'm trying to add a "user-verifacation" thingy to my site.
my problem is using/accessing session variables.
all the tutorials say that the global.asa should only have
the script tags (<script...> & </script>) and inside the script itself
only have the application/session onstart/end.
I've created this global.asa file and put it in my site-root folder:
<script type="text/javascript" language="javascript" runat=server>
function Session_OnStart()
{ Session("LoggedIn") = "NO"
}
</script>
but i can't access the session variable Session("LoggedIn")... from any page.
I have started session("visitorID") in global.asa in order
to keep track of how many users are on our site at any
given time, trouble is I can't seem to call the session
while on another page.
As I am relatively new to asp I'll post both the setting
of the session and the call to it on the other page below Code:
i have a logon page, i create session variables for every person who logs on, but when their session times out, i want to redirect them (or have a popup window) that tells them that they have been logged off, but i have no success.' global.asa:
<script language="vbscript" runat="server">
Sub Session_OnEnd
Response.Redirect "loggedout.asp"
End Sub
</script>
but it doesnt work, i set the timeout to 1 minute, and i lose the session variables, but i cant seem to redirect them to the loggedout page!
I have a application which is a global login for other applications. Basically application A checks all the user login information and then lists all the applications B-Z that the user has access to.
I have a global.asa file in application A and individual global.asa files in applications B-Z. Applications B-Z are under the Application A directory. Can I have global.asa files in each of the application folders? Does the pages look for the closest global.asa file?
I have to keep track of user login time and logout tme for each application. The problem I run into is how do I record the user logout time when the session expires?
CAn I set a session variable dynamically based on a value in a database and use the global.asa to do it...
View Replies View RelatedAll, Just to give a little background this is reagarding an ASP 3.0
application running on IIS6 using the default app pool.
I have set the session timeout to 540 minutes in IIS (under options tab in
Application configuration). There is no code in the Session_OnStart or
Session_OnEnd in the global.asa. Via an include file, each page executes
these no-cache related code:
Response.Buffer = True
Response.ExpiresAbsolute = Now() - 1
Response.Expires = 0
Response.CacheControl = "no-cache"
Response.CacheControl = "private"
Sorry, just wanted to give some background on what we're dealing with.
Anyways, the problem is that the users are saying their session state is
expiring much sooner than 540 minutes. How is this possible? What did I miss?
Are there better techniques to ensure the 540 minute session?
i just started learning what it can do, and I am using it to tracj how many people have logged into my site, but when people login to my site, I start 2 sessions, one for their ID, and one for their name. Is there any way to only count the name session as a session_onstart in global.asa?
View Replies View RelatedI'm using the following code in my global.asa file to set the
session.timeout value amongst other things -
Sub Session_OnStart
Session.Timeout = 40
Session("Authenticated") = 1
End Sub
Yet when I print out the value of session.timeout on a page after this
event has fired it returns 20 (I get the right value for
Session("Authenticated") so my code appears to be working).
I checked the default timeout value in IIS (v5) on the server, but
this reads 900 seconds, which in my books is 15 minutes. I am
therefore very confused as to where this value of 20 is coming from.
Could anyone point me in the right direction as I need to set this to
40 minutes and my WROX manual doesn't provide much information on this
property.
I need to set a session time out for this website that was created by someone else using ePower. How can I configure the global.asa page to set a time out session for the users or do I have to set this in IIS? Code:
View Replies View RelatedI have absolutely no idea how global.asa works. I've read through quite a number of articles and they're all fine and dandy but implementing it on my (first) ASP application just doesn't work. It's amazing how ASP.NET automates everything for you.
Anyway, I need to store session variables and I have no idea how to. I have no global.asa file, but I can declare session variables fine. So does that mean that somewhere in the ASP process, a Session_OnStart() method's already running.
If I create a global.asa file, I put it in the same directory with other ASP files right?
A global.asa file should contain the basic four application/session methods... and shouldn't really contain much code, unless I want to start a variable with a default value. True or false (I say true). Code:
I am trying to run a Session_OnStart Script based on a Session variable that is created on a .asp page. The problem is that when I reference the Session in Global.asa It has no value but it has a value on the .asp page level. Is there a certain way that I have to reference a Session in Global.asa?
What I have is somthing like the following:
Sub Session_OnStart
If Session("NIS")<> "" Then
Run The Routine
End If
End Sub
Based on the above the routine does not run because Global.asa does not seem to get the value of Session("NIS").
Until now I've only seen VBScript to handle application and session events (e.g.
Application_OnStart, Session_OnStart). Is it possible to do this directly in
JavaScript or do I have to write VBScript proxies?
