.NET Forum / Languages / C# / October 2007Session Expiry - the session expired after a number of hours of inactivity, although Session Expiry was set to 24 hours
Hi, I had created a web application where Session expiry was set to 2,000 minutes in IIS. in web config i had given like this <sessionState timeout="2,000" mode="InProc"></sessionState> but MY web application was left logged in at 18:00 15th Oct, but on the following day 08:30 16th Oct, the session expired as soon as MY web application was used. It was also noted that during the day, MY web application occasionally got session expiry when it was constantly being used.Does the session expiry need to be set up anywhere else? There are no Error logs created. Will you please help me to resolve this issue. i expect your reply soon .

I think that the parser may be getting confused by the comma and setting a timeout of 2 minutes instead of 2000 minutes as you intended. You can check if this is the case by examining the Session.Timeout property somewhere in your code. The IIS setting (at least in 6.0) applies only to Classic ASP, not ASP.NET. When IIS recycles your app (which can occur many times during the day depending on memory pressure and ISS settings for same), your InProc sessions will go away. Normally there is no need to set such a long Session Timeout as it has a sliding expiration that "renews" the timeout whenever there is a request for a page. In addition, it can pose a real security risk. The best thing to do is not rely on Session at all, depending on what your needs are. Finally, this is the C# language group - your post really belongs at the ASP.NET group - it is not language specific but more about which framework. -- Peter Recursion: see Recursion site: http://www.eggheadcafe.com unBlog: http://petesbloggerama.blogspot.com BlogMetaFinder: http://www.blogmetafinder.com > Hi, > I had created a web application where Session expiry was set to 2,000 [quoted text clipped - 11 lines] > With Thanks > Fijo Francis T Free MagazinesGet these publications absolutely FREE for up to 12 months.
