Session time-out,when the page breaks?

Hi..

I had published a website in the server( I am using VS 2005,ASP.NET2.0, With C#) . I tried testing the site by asking several users to login to the website and do unit testing. At one instance of time, the page breaks for a particular user. When the page breaks, the other users who are tesing in their machine are getting a session time-out and are forced to log out.

Why is such a session-time out issue happening, when one of the users page breaks. I have set the session variable to 20 minutes,which is the default. But what's confusing is , when one of the user's page breaks, the others get a session time-out? Why is such a session-time out occuring?

Please help.

Thanks.

What do you mean when you say "the page breaks?" If an app pool cycles you might see this effect. Have you diagnosed the "page break" to see what happens?

Thank you very much for the reply.

The page break, I referred is the page crashing(asp.net error page) .I have customized the error page to show, An Unexpected error occurred, please try after some time.

But when the user tries the same steps to find the page crash, he is not able to, as the page works well. This is a kind of absurd. The page is not crashing always, but it is random. I checked the log, but it was not providing much information. I also could not re-trace the page crash, as the page worked well.

But why is the session getting timed out for the other users, when one of the users page crashes?

Thanks.

Hi..

I am sorry that I forgot to include a scenario in my web page,which i am doing. I have written a code to delete a folder in the session end in global.asax. When i commented the code, and tried testing, the session time out was not occuring.

I searched in the google, and came out with this:

Is this the reason for all sessions getting timed-out, when a page crashes?

Thanks

Hi Venkatzeus,

As far as i know, if you delete a folder which is in your application directory, the appDomain will restart, and you will lose your session.

I hope this helps.

This happens as your worker process memory limits get full and asp.net worker process gets restarted. how to do this setting you can find at

http://www.asp.net/faq/AspNetAndIIS6.aspx

But I think you needs to findout why its getting full.

When you get this error check server CPU Usage what it shows?

then debug.

HI,,

Thank you very much for the reply. I will try with it and provide the results.

Thanks
