Session Timeouts

Which Session Timeout property is used by default.
Is it the one in IIS (900 seconds)
Machine.config (20 mins)
or
Web.config (20 mins)
Could someone explain how this works.
Or is it IIS just because that ends first?
Thanksasp.net does not use the IIS session - these are for classic asp
true session timeout only occurs with the inproc session manager running in
your app domain. for its configuration it defaults to machine.config, but
web.config overrides it , like all settings (unless overriding
machine.config has been disabled).

BillGatesFan..
I have also asked this question once..
But after my research..i think Web.Config..overrides all of them.

Session var lost using InProc or StateServer mode

On my development machine my application works fine but on the
deployment server my session variable gets lost after a postback on a
webform. By doing a watch on the Session object I can see that the
SessionId is changing and the mode is StateServer. (I changed from
InProc to StateServer to try to fix the problem but it didn't have any
effect.
Details:
- Win 2k Server/IIS 5.0/.NET Framework 1.1
- I have disabled virus protection.
- The StateServer service is running.
Any ideas are greatly appreciated.
MichaelIs there an underscore character ("_") in the name of your deployment
server? There's a known bug in that case.

session variables are lost when logged into app first time

Background
We migrated our Asp.net 1.1 application to Asp.net 2.0 ( just migration )
. It was working fine in local developer machine and one of our development
testing server.
When we moved to staging server which is also running on Windows 2000 server
and we started facing a peculiar issue.
We are able to login successfully every time , however , a click on a link
to move to a a different page on a hyper link.
<asp:HyperLink id="lnkClick" runat="server" ForeColor="Snow"
Font-Italic="True" Font-Size="Small"
Font-Underline="True" Font-Names="Arial" Target="_self"
Font-Bold="True">here</asp:HyperLink>
Code behind has the following code
lnkClick.NavigateUrl = Convert.ToString("Files12/Z_All_allReports.aspx")
What is the issue ?
When the new page is launched , it ends in null reference exception as the
session variables loaded in the previous page were lost.
Our session state is still inproc .
Is it due to any settings on the web server.
Any information is highly appreciated ."SM" <SM@.discussions.microsoft.com> wrote in message

Why do you need Convert.ToString?

I don't see any reason for your session state to be lost. Please show us why
you believe that your session state is being lost.
A simple test would be to place a Response.Write(Session["KEY"]) before the
place where you're getting the NullReferenceException. This would show
whether the exception is due to missing session state.
