After 20 minutes or whatever your IIS session timeout variable is the session_end event should be called.
If doesn't seem to be be working then check your IIS settings.

found out, the event is being called, but I want to dispose (or clean up)
objects that was used within the web app. put the call within a try and wrote
to a event viewer. But, when I call the dispose method, it returned that the
"Object reference not set to an instance of an object." But, it did not
really release cleanly. Cause if user clicks on the Log off button on the web
app, it will call the dispose method and it shut down all dependent objects.
Any ideas around this?

Sounds like a garbage collection issue. Somehow you need to determine if the objects have already been released or not and then when they are released that they are released completely.
The LogOff button should trigger a Session.Abandon which is what session_end should do. If there are subtle differences then I am sot sure I can help.
Maybe someone else has beeter insights.

yes, my logoff functionality is working. What I am trying to do if if user

Cannot always assume the users is going to follow instructions to the dot.

If not, If users are simply navigating away from your application
without clicking logoff, how are you handling the object cleanup?
Remember server has no idea as what user does on the browser, unless he

You need to be more specific about what "objects" need to be disposed (or
even if that is necessary), and be aware of the fact that they may already be
gone anyway.

From what I understand with the discussion until now, you have some
code that cleans up your objects in user logoff function, but the same
code is not working if you place it in Session_End event handler. Is
that right?
That is correct. If they navigate away, the session_end event is called when
the session has timed out. But, in the function, when I attempt to call the
dispose method of the object, it throws an error "Object reference not set to
an instance of an object." But, I know it did not dispose properly cause when
the object is called it starts a process inthe task manager I can monitor. If
I press the log off button, I see the process clear out of the task manager.
But, if the timeout is fired, the process is still running on the task
manager.

That is correct. If they navigate away, the session_end event is called
when
the session has timed out. But, in the function, when I attempt to call
the
dispose method of the object, it throws an error "Object reference not set
to
an instance of an object." But, I know it did not dispose properly cause
when
the object is called it starts a process inthe task manager I can monitor.
If
I press the log off button, I see the process clear out of the task
manager.
But, if the timeout is fired, the process is still running on the task
manager.
See Peter's reply...
Do the following:
1) Set your Session timeout to 1 minute
2) Set a breakpoint at the very top of your Session_End method
3) Start your web project in debug mode (Ctrl-F5)
4) FROM ANOTHER BROWSER WINDOW, access your site
5) Log in as normal
6) Don't log out cleanly - instead, just close the browser
7) Wait patiently for 60 seconds until the Session_End fires - now step
through, identify the problem and fix it... :-) This thread has been closed and replies have been disabled. Please start a new discussion. Similar topics | |

Hi,
I am facing a problem of automatic session timeout problem and
automatic session_end event fired.
Case1: As I have analyzed I get to know that the default session
timeout is 20 in web.config, If I reassign the session timeout at
login page other than the time which is defined at web.config(20 Min.)
then automatic session_end (in global.aspx.cs) event fired.
Why automatic this event is fired??
