session timeout problem

I was experiencing problems with session in asp .net.
I´ve set up session timeout on 180 minutes at web.config, machine.config,
iis and even in application code, always session expires on 20 minutes after
last request.

Any solutions?

Thank you in advance.

How do you known that sessions expire? May be you mixing that up with
application being recycled, which is a different reason for losing session
variables. Check this article for more info:

Thanks for the answers.
I used Performance Counters (Worker Process Restarts, Sessions Active,
Sessions Timed Out and Sessions Abandoned ) to watch execution. Worker
Process never restarts.

I keep looking for help, thanks.

Do we have any access to the Session object from a different Session? The idea is to save Session of a current user and then if he logs in again then return the Session back. It's not a problem to store, there is only one complicated object in this Session, but to get it on SessionStart to make a copy this is a problem. Maybe using Application or whatever? Or this data is divided and inaccessible anyway? Just D.

Hi, I am facing a problem of automatic session timeout problem and automatic session_end event fired.

Why automatic this event is fired??

So, my site's sessions are empty before its timeout. I have searched and checked for long time around this problem, but I can't fix the problem yet. The session timeout is 20 minutes in IIS 5.1 by default. I didn't set the timeout as "session.timeout=10" in codes of VBScript
