ASP.net Session expiring before Authentication

John_Mc

Hi,

I'm working on an MVC 2 application which stores a few objects in Session when the user logs in.

My problem is that even though I've set the session to expire at the same time as the forms authentication session, the session is expiring before that. So the result is that the session is null when it shouldn't be.

Here's two of the relevant settings from my web.config:

<authentication mode="Forms">
			<forms loginUrl="~/Account/LogOn" timeout="30"/>
		</authentication>
    <sessionState mode="InProc" stateConnectionString="tcpip=127.0.0.1:42424" sqlConnectionString="data source=127.0.0.1;Trusted_Connection=yes" cookieless="false" timeout="30"/>

Anyone have any ideas how to get these to expire at the same time?

Thanks

Try that instead. You had configured some strange Hybrid of InProc, SQLServer and StateServer modes.

Hi,

Many thanks for your reply. I tried that but the problem is still occurring. Nevertheless, still a good idea to get rid of redundant settings

Any other suggestions?
