Can you share session state with parent project

Bill Reynen

Hello,

Working in ASP.NET. I want to create several projects on the web server

/Online

/Online/App1
/Online/App2
/Online/App3

The /Online project will handle all of the user authentication and present
them with a list of applications they can access (App1, App2, App3)

/Online/App1, App2, and App3 are separate projects but I want them to be
able to access the session variables defined in /Online. Is it possible to
share the session information between the projects?

Thanks

Bill Reynen

The real question is not that of projects, which are Visual Studio.Net
entities, but of Web Applications. In IIS, an Application is defined by the
configuration of the web server directory in which the files and folders
that constitute the Application reside. When you create an ASP.Net Project
in Visual Studio.Net, it creates an Application for you in the web folder in
which your Project files reside. However, you can certainly deploy multiple
"projects" into the same Application. The tricky part is the web.config
files. There can only be one root web.config file, although each folder in
the Application can have a web.config file in it, as long as that web.config
file doesn't have any "machine-to-application" configuration elements in it.
Details about this can be found at the following URL:

http://msdn.microsoft.com/library/de...figuration.asp

If you plan to combine these Applications, you can certainly do so by
removing the Application configuration from each sub-folder. Again, however,
remember that it can be tricky to set this up after developing each part as
a separate project. For example, all DLLs must be placed in the same (root)
bin folder. And there may be complications arising from the way you
structured each separate project when you developed it.

Using a db to share ASP session state var w/ ASP.NET page

by: VB Programmer | last post by:

I've read that you can save a session state variable created by an ASP page into a db so that the value of the session state variable can be read/used by an ASP.NET webform. Question: Let's say the session variable is called "UserIsAdmin" and the ASP page is the login page. When the person logs in as 'admin' it stores the session variable as "True" in a db. How does the ASP.NET page that is served up know whether the page requestor is...

session state variables expiring too quickly

In a VB.Net 2.0 project, I have a WizardClass that contains a List (of RuleClass).

Currently there is only one Wizard in the project but there might be more in the future to handle different rulesets. My...

Share session between secure and non-secure applications

Share session between subdomains?

by: Hans Kesting | last post by:

Hi, Is it possible to share sessions between subdomains? Say: the user logs in at www.company.com, and is redirected to my.company.com. This is a different url for the same application. Can I keep the session (so I still know WHO has logged in)? The problem (as I see it) is the session-cookie. If that has a domain of "www.company.com", it will not be transferred to "my.company.com".

When a user opens a new IE browser window using File-New-Window the integrity of an application which relies on session state is COMPLETELY undermined. Anyone who overlooks the fact that File-New-Window creates an instance of IE in the same process with the same SessionID as the parent window is in big trouble. This fundamentally restricts the usefullness of using session state management. I probably missed it somewhere - can...
