Session state doesn't work

[cashdeskmac]

I have put a string into Session and tried to retrieve it on the next page I
visit but the Session appears empty. I have exactly the same spelling for
both adding and retrieving the value:

Session["name"] = "john";

On the next page:

txtName.Text = Session["name"];

I tried it with .ToString() and in an if statement to make sure it has a
value but it always shows as null.

I have not modified IIS in any way since installing it ( and I have checked
that Session is enabled in the IIS console).

This happens in any of the applications I create in Visual Studio .NET 2003.

Can there be anything else preventing me from using Session state?

[Karl Seguin [MVP]]

Are you using a Response.Redire ct after setting the session? If so, take a
look at:

Hi Karl,

no, I am using Server.Transfer to go from page to page within my application.

Both Response.Redire ct and Server.Transfer call Response.End internally,
so you'll have the same problem with either.

Use Server.Execute, instead of Server.Transfer .
That will get rid of your problem.

Thank you for the reply Juan,

but I need to know why this is happening on just my computer. If I type the
same code onto another computer and use Server.Transer or Response.Redire ct
it works fine, and so I assume that there is a problem with the settings on
my machine.

Hi there,

"Cashdeskma c" was trying to help with a problem that has occured on my
computer (thanks Allen!).

I have read the responses from Juan and Karl (thanks also for your
responses) but unfortunately the solutions given do not entirely resolve the
problem.

Yes, when I use Server.Execute instead of Server.Transfer the session state
is maintained. But if I place the appropriate "Response.Redir ect" code in (as
stated in both responses), sessions state is not maintained?
For example, if the following code is entered is the following:
Response.Redire ct("WebForm.asp x", false);

I get the following exception in the browser:
Server Error in '/WebApplication2 ' Application.

Hi Juan,

as Jon pointed out, I posted this in order to solve his problem.

The main issue we have is that when I use Response.Redire ct or
Server.Transfer on MY computer, Session variables are maintained without any
problems. It is only on JON's computer that the issue occurs.

Do you know of any setting on his computer which could be to blame?

Hi,

Just to let you all know that this issue was resolved by either switching
off my zone alarm privacy settings (to allow browsers to accept cookies) or
by changing the "cookieless " setting in the <sessionState of the web.config
file to "true" so that Session state was maintianed through the URL rather
than through cookies.

Thank you all for your help.

Can there be anything else preventing me from using Session state?
